Julius Caesar?

I was surprised to see that Julius Caesar is not listed on this article as the first of the Roman emperors, but what do I know? It seems strange to see the list lacking his name. What's the real scoop? I actually read a whole bunch of the Gallic Wars (in Latin) when in high school; they were high drama to me then. So, was Julius an emporor, or just a dictator who started the line of subsequent emperors? I think someone, who knows more Roman history than I do, might help this article by providing it with a sort of introduction to explain why the list starts where it starts.Pat Palmer (talk) 21:29, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
