Explanation:
Julius Caesar had the title of "dictator for life" by the time he was assassinated by three senators: Marcus Junius Brutus, Cassius Longinus and Decimus Junius Brutus in 44 BC. He was stabbed to death in a theater, and several other senators were conspirators.
The goal of the senators was to re-establish the republic, however, they were ineffective in achieving this goal, and what broke out next was a civil war that ended when Augustus finally took power and became the first Roman Emperor.
Black codes were restrictive laws designed to limit the freedom of African Americans and ensure their availability as a cheap labor force after slavery was abolished during the Civil War. Under black codes, many states required Black people to sign yearly labor contracts; if they refused, they risked being arrested, fined and forced into unpaid labor.
Even as former enslaved people fought to assert their independence and gain economic autonomy during the earliest years of Reconstruction. While the codes granted certain freedoms to African Americans—including the right to buy and own property, marry, make contracts and testify in court (only in cases involving people of their own race)—their primary purpose was to restrict Black peoples’ labor and activity. Black people who broke labor contracts were subject to arrest, beating and forced labor, and apprenticeship laws forced many minors into unpaid labor for white planters.
