- The First Triumvirate consisted of Pompey, Crassus, and Julius Caesar.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Caesar is killed at the end of the play, like the hero in many tragedies.
Brutus supports Caesar and joins the conspiracy because he is jealous of Caesar’s power.
Memory Tips
Caesar as the tragic hero who appears only three times but dominates the play
