Bonus: Julia Agrippina AKA, “Agrippina the Younger” was a most powerful Roman empress, a most prominent and effective woman in the Julio-Claudian dynasty. She was the granddaughter of the first Roman emperor Augustus, sister of the rascal emperor Caligua, niece and fourth wife (Whoops) of Claudius and Mother of Nero. She was considered a beautiful and reputable woman, but was ruthless, violent, ambitious and domineering. It is noted by historians that she was the defacto ruler of Rome when her son Nero was eth Emperor. But, she maybe best known for poisoning her Husband Claudius.
