Julius Caesar's "havoc" didn't go much beyond the borders of the Roman Empire. True, his actions did initiate long-term consequences, but in several ways a lot of them were for the better. Hitler, however, has nothing but bad news to the world. Indeed, what he contributed to the benefit of the world could probably be weighed on the head of a pin with plenty of room left for angels. Hitler for sure.

We are still feeling the lumps and bumps of Hitler's dictatorship and the cultural significance of World War Two and The Holocaust but at least Germany no longer has a dictator. The chaos within Rome caused by the dissolution of the Republic, civil war and the balance of dictatorship lasted for 500 years plus. Despite all this Rome is looked upon as one of the most cultured and advanced centres of historical living known. Life makes a decision about havoc.

Hitler

Caesar destroyed the oldest standing Rebublic in the history of humankind until the USA was created. Despite the pleasant image we have of him nowadays, his appetite was voracious and he was responsible for the deaths of many people and societies. Hitler was an 8 year ripple in the stream of history compared to Caesar's quest for personal glory that was felt for a good half-millenium afterwards. Caesar hastened the destruction of Rome and must be viewed as the greatest megalomaniac of all time.

Hitler, by far. Caesar just conquered lands--he didn't try to exterminate an entire race. The Romans didn't drive out the people who already lived there--they needed them to pay taxes to support Rome, and grow the crops they needed. Besides, a lot of the conquered people were all too happy to accept Roman rule--they brought a lot of benefits, like the Roman peace and roads.

The romans did operate outside Italy unlike the answer one person gave and had a massive impact stillfelt today.... just look at a lot of the road systems in Europe all left by the Romans. They had slavery, slaughter in their games and a hand in the death of Jesus! The rise of Christiantity and the influnce of the Roman Catholic church.... based in Roman! continued to influence European history fora significant period of time. Both caused devastation and death, the Romans will be forgiven because of some great inventions and cultural impact, Hitler never will be given or deserves to be given any such sympathetic treatment.

Adolf Hitler, he caused the world to be a war for six years. He tried to wipe off the map a lot of Jewish People at least six million of them because he thought they were inferior beings and in turn almost murdered them off the face of the map in Europe. He also had murdered a lot of other people of different races because he thought they were inferior too such as the Russian People. He caused the world to hate Germans during and after World War 2 because of what happen during World War 2 with in the concentration camp and in the countries that he did conquered such as in the last year of war in Holland where the civilian population who were non Jewish were practially straved to death. He destory his own country and caused Europe to be plunged into a Cold War situation for at least 4 decades because the world didn't trust Germany and had the country divided in half. One half of the country controlled by NATO Forces and the second half controlled by Eastern Blocked Countries under the controlled of the Soviet Union.

Deffo Hitler Juie wasn't good news if you were a Gaul, but the ones he left alive took to Roman culture quite quickly. As for the civil war, his Roman opponents were more to blame than he, and when the fighting were over, he forgave them, which wasn't the usual Roman style.

With respect to the victims of genocide

Rome, like all empires, ripped the souls out of communities to create the designs of its chiefs. In its defence, it extended its legal structures into remote populations, allowing them to live, perhaps without many rights. Beauty flourished within the central administrative regions of this massive concentrated force of laws, "bread, and circuses".

Hitler's utter anihilation of populations, of communities, and of their place in history also served his design, but in a more sick way: he killed 6 million people and used everyone else's fear to generate a delusional economy. The cynicism of industrial homicide reverberates around the world today.

Hitler gave us nothing. He was a nobody. A dick head, basically.
