Most interesting character

After reading the Matyszak chapters and deliberating on which character I found most interesting. I ended up deciding on Marcus Tullius Cicero as he had made some of the greatest contributions to Roman society. He was a lawyer, he exposed false leaders, and tried to set some of Romes most well known politicians on a just path. Cicero came from an average background but showed great intelligence and political adeptness at a young age. He became a Consul and was part of Caesars attempts to rule Rome. I think that Cicero interests me most because of all the things he did with his life, he was not only a politician, but a philosopher and teacher who helped the greater good of Rome. He had immense power from pure intelligence and hard work which is what set him apart from the other characters.
