Lepidus
Explanation:
L'assassinat de César
Pour disposer d'un sénat à sa dévotion, César nomme de nombreux partisans, en particulier des Gaulois de la plaine du Pô (ses clients), et y réintègre certains de ses adversaires ou leurs fils. Un complot, réunissant autour de Brutus et de Cassius quelques-uns de ses partisans déçus et des pompéiens, est organisé pour supprimer César, qui est assassiné le 15 mars 44 en pleine séance du sénat.   Ses héritiers, Marc Antoine, César Octavien et Lepidus, après avoir éliminé les meurtriers, s'allient pour instituer une magistrature collégiale, le «triumvirat constituant», supérieur au consulat, et d'une durée de cinq ans renouvelable.
