This First Triumvirate, and even though Julius Caesar was a patrician, he was part of the nobility, they had populist tendencies. They wanted to do things for the people. You could view them as, in certain ways, progressive. They wanted to do land redistribution versus the conservatives who wanted to hold the power in the aristocracy. And so this First Triumvirate is able to use their influence to put Julius Caesar in as consul for the year 59 BCE. And as I just mentioned at the beginning of this video, there are two consuls. The other one was a figure named Bibulus.
