Cincinnatus was a Roman statesman that is recognized for his talent and did not ambitioned power for the sake of power. He became a dictator when Rome was in crises. He accepted the call and did his best to solve the situation. As soon as he finished with his government responsibilities, he retired. On the other hand, Julius Caesar was the opposite. Julius Caesar used a crisis in Rome in order to gain power and control the empire. After that, he proclaimed himself dictator.
