The Brothers Gracchi - Enter Gaius - Extra History - Part 4

📜 The Brothers Gracchi, Part 4 - Extra History With Tiberius dead, it fell to his brother Gaius to take up his mantle. Both brothered were talented and charismatic, but Gaius had a much more fiery temper that made the Senate wary. During his political post, as a quaestor assigned to Sardinia, they tried to bind him to his post to prevet him from running in another election. Gaius broke tradition and defied the Senate's orders, but when they put him on trial, he brought the citizens over to his side and walked away freely. As they had feared, he ran for tribune: the same office his brother had held. Despite heavy opposition from his enemies, he won. Support for him both in and outside Rome had grown so large that people flooded the city just to vote for him. In his first act, he passed a law which applied retroactively to punish Popilius Laena, the man who had banished Tiberius's supporters after his death. Popilius fled rather than face the law. Over the remainder of his term, Gaius proved extremely active and efficient: he passed new laws and implemented programs to help the poor, the soldiers, and the middle class through measures like the grain dole. At the end of his term, he planned to step down from politics for a while, but there weren't enough people who won the election for tribune that year so he was reinstated by default. Now he had what his brother had died for: a second term as tribune.
