Hi Bunnytails, another great episode. I meant to ask you this; Did you find yourself a bit conflicted on who to root for during your watch? Piltover vs. Zaun. On one hand, we have a struggling city where this whole adventure began with a protagonist turned demented wreaking havoc. On the other hand, we have the upper city who never really lent a hand before but also had most of its ducks aligned to make for a good society with rules and order. If I feel conflicted, I can only imagine how VI feels. It was probably intended by the writers. Just wondering how you felt. Were you leaning more toward on clan? Were you sort of neutral or were you switching sides back and forward? What a good show! This is my second time watching it. I find it infinitely more interesting watching it with you at a slower pace. You help me understand a lot more things that I didn't during my initial marathon. Thank you and see you on the other side ;-)

Yes bunny, that's what the office of "dictator" meant in the Roman Republic. It was meant to be temporary, the duration of the crisis, but they were flexible about the time limit and so you got an emperor as first among equals and the same structure as the republic. I think there were more, but famous dictators, Caesar of course, also Sulla and Cincinnatus. Mostly they spent their time purging the ruling class with witty and unusual methods.

Cincinnatus is perhaps the most famous example -- if ancient Roman historians are to be believed, the Republic was under a major military invasion, members of the Senate went looking for him, found him plowing his fields, and begged him to come save the Republic. He did so, and then promptly returned to his fields as a farmer as if nothing had ever happened. The idea of consolidating power into the hands of one man to save the Republic during a crisis worked for most of it's history, but as you pointed out, Caesar and others during the civil wars abused the position.
