I created this infographic to simply explain how Caesar’s cultural influence continues to this day. Obviously, Caesar also did a lot more for the Roman empire- he added parts of Brittain, all of Gaul (modern-day France), and many German tribes laying the groundwork for most of the Roman Empire.

I was surprised to learn that THE CAESAR SALAD ISN”T NAMED AFTER JULIUS CAESAR!

The salad was actually named for its inventor, chef Caesar Cardini, who created the iconic dish in a restaurant in Tijuana Mexico. You can read more about the salad and its creator here:
