Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The conspiracy of Gaius Calpurnius Piso in AD 65 represented one of the major turning points in the reign of the Roman emperor Nero (54 68). The plot signified the growing discontent among the upper social strata of the Roman state with regards to Nero''s increasingly despotic leadership, and as a result is a significant event in the road towards his eventual suicide, and the chaos that followed. Gaius Calpurnius Piso, a renowned Roman statesman, literary benefactor, and orator, intended to have Nero assassinated and to have himself declared Emperor of Rome by the imperial bodyguard, known as the Praetorian Guard. He enlisted the aid of several prominent senators, equestrians, and soldiers with a loosely conceived plan in which Faenius Rufus joint prefect of the Praetorian Guard with Ofonius Tigellinus would conduct Piso to the Praetorian Camp for a formal declaration by the Guard.
