The Roman Emperor and His Horse tells the story of a young Roman Emperor named Caligula and his special pet horse, Incitatus. Caligula's love for Incitatus surpassed everything else, leading him to build a luxurious stable for the horse and even announce plans to appoint it as a consul of Rome. Caligula's absurd decision sparked discontent among the nobles, ultimately leading to a coup and his tragic downfall. This story not only showcases Caligula's eccentric behavior but also serves as a warning about the dangers of abusing power, reminding us of the importance of remaining rational and clear-headed.
