Most modern commentaries seek to explain Caligula's position, personality and historical context.

He directed much of his attention to ambitious construction projects and public works to benefit Rome's ordinary citizens, including racetracks, theatres, amphitheatres, and improvements to roads and ports.

He had to abandon an attempted invasion of Britain, and the installation of his statue in the Temple of Jerusalem.

Fund-raising through taxation became a major preoccupation. Provincial citizens were liable for direct payment of taxes used to fund the military, a payment from which Italians were exempt. Caligula abolished some taxes, including the deeply unpopular sales tax, but he introduced an unprecedented range of new ones, and rather than employ professional tax farmers (<a href="/wiki/Publicani" class="mw-redirect" title="Publicani">publicani</a>) in their collection, he made this a duty of the notoriously forceful Praetorian Guard. Dio and Suetonius describe these taxes as "shameful": some were remarkably petty. Caligula taxed "taverns, artisans, slaves and the hiring of slaves", edibles sold in the city, litigation anywhere in the Empire, weddings or marriages, the wages of porters "or perhaps couriers", and most infamously, a tax on prostitutes (active, retired or married) or their pimps, liable for "a sum equivalent to a single transaction". Citizens of provincial Italy lost their previous tax exemptions. Most individual tax bills were fairly small but cumulative; over Caligula's brief reign, taxes were doubled overall. Even then, the revenue was nowhere near enough, and the imposition was deeply resented by Rome's commoners. Josephus claims that this led to riotous protests at the Circus. Barrett remarks that stories of consequent "mass executions" there by the military should "almost certainly" be dismissed as "standard exaggeration".<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTESuet._&#39;&#39;Calig.&#39;&#39;12_25-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESuet._&#39;&#39;Calig.&#39;&#39;12-25"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEBarrett2015298–301_97-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarrett2015298–301-97"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>91<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJosephus&#91;&#91;s:The_Antiquities_of_the_Jews/Book_XIX#Chapter_19&#124;19.28&#93;&#93;_98-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJosephus[[s:The_Antiquities_of_the_Jews/Book_XIX#Chapter_19|19.28]]-98"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>92<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Property or money left to Tiberius as emperor but not collected on his death would have passed to Caligula as office-holder.

As an adult, he was subject to fainting fits. He was a habitually light sleeper, prone to nodding off during banquets, sleeping no more than 3 hours in any one night, and subject to vivid nightmares. Barrett describes him as "nervous and highly strung". When speaking in public, he would fidget and move about, overcome by the flood of his own words and ideas; despite that, he was an eloquent speaker. He grew stronger with age, but was probably never robust or athletic, despite his practise as a charioteer. Little is known of his illness in 38, nor what it changed, if anything, but it was a serious, possibly life-threatening event. Philo blames it on Caligula's habitual over-indulgence in rich foods and wine, general intemperance and a stress-induced nervous breakdown. Philo believed that the illness removed Caligula's pretence of decency, and revealed his inner cruelty and ruthlessness, evident in the murders of his own father-in-law, Silanus, and young cousin Gemellus.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEPhilo&#39;&#39;On_the_Embassy&#39;&#39;_II–IV_260-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPhilo&#39;&#39;On_the_Embassy&#39;&#39;_II–IV-260"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>249<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEBarrett2015284–285_261-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarrett2015284–285-261"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>250<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTESuet._&#39;&#39;Calig.&#39;&#39;8,_50,_53–54_262-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESuet._&#39;&#39;Calig.&#39;&#39;8,_50,_53–54-262"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>251<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The sources are somewhat contradictory on the matter of Caligula's sex life.

Seneca and Philo, moralising contemporaries of Caligula, do not mention these stories even after Caligula's death, when it would have been safe to do so. Caligula's devotion to his youngest sister was evident but then as now, allegations of incest fit the amoral, "mad Emperor" stereotype, promiscuous with money, sex and the lives of his subjects. Dio repeats, as fact, the rumour that Caligula also had "improper relations" with his two older sisters, Agrippina and Livilla.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEBarrett2015118_277-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarrett2015118-277"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>265<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Kejser_Caligula_(IN_2687).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dd/Kejser_Caligula_%28IN_2687%29.jpg/270px-Kejser_Caligula_%28IN_2687%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="270" height="193" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dd/Kejser_Caligula_%28IN_2687%29.jpg/405px-Kejser_Caligula_%28IN_2687%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dd/Kejser_Caligula_%28IN_2687%29.jpg/540px-Kejser_Caligula_%28IN_2687%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4961" data-file-height="3543" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Marble" title="Marble">Marble</a> <a href="/wiki/Bust_(sculpture)" title="Bust (sculpture)">bust</a> of Caligula with traces of original paint beside a <a href="/wiki/Plaster" title="Plaster">plaster</a> <a href="/wiki/Replica" title="Replica">replica</a> trying to recreate the <a href="/wiki/Polychrome" title="Polychrome">polychrome</a> traditions of ancient sculpture</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Caligula,_Palazzo_Massimo_alle_Terme,_Rome_(8533822404).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/Caligula%2C_Palazzo_Massimo_alle_Terme%2C_Rome_%288533822404%29.jpg/170px-Caligula%2C_Palazzo_Massimo_alle_Terme%2C_Rome_%288533822404%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="261" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/Caligula%2C_Palazzo_Massimo_alle_Terme%2C_Rome_%288533822404%29.jpg/255px-Caligula%2C_Palazzo_Massimo_alle_Terme%2C_Rome_%288533822404%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/Caligula%2C_Palazzo_Massimo_alle_Terme%2C_Rome_%288533822404%29.jpg/340px-Caligula%2C_Palazzo_Massimo_alle_Terme%2C_Rome_%288533822404%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2695" data-file-height="4131" /></a><figcaption>So-called "little bust" of Caligula, found in the River Tiber in Rome</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Mental_condition">Mental condition</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Caligula&amp;action=edit&amp;section=24" title="Edit section: Mental condition"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>There is no reliable evidence of Caligula's mental state at any time in his life.
