Did you know that the Roman Emperor fought as a gladiator? Commodus, son of the great Marcus Aurelius, was the only male heir born to a sitting Roman emperor in over 100 years. He was raised as the "Golden Child of Rome." However, the attention he received made him arrogant. He believed himself to be a demigod and was often caught up in his own delusions. Commodus spent his time drinking and having fun with women, neglecting the affairs of his kingdom. Spoiled and useless, he needed something to satisfy his ego and prove the power of his imaginary god. His solution was to become a gladiator. Commodus fought as a gladiator, but he made sure his opponents were helpless or small in stature. In addition, he charged 25,000 coins from the royal treasury each time he participated in a fight. His madness drained the kingdom's finances and caused Rome to fall into civil war. Finally, he was murdered by a hired wrestler, strangled in a bathtub, and left in a pool of his deranged mind.
