"End of Chapter 4. The final section of Chapter 4 focuses on the last months and days of Tiberius, who had withdrawn from Rome. He could no longer endure the city’s relentless realpolitik or the constant intrigues of its political life. As he retreated, rumours spread about his conduct and private behaviour. At the same time, he struggled to choose a clear and capable successor. He died alone in Capri." — Jan 06, 2026 07:05PM
