A. He was named dictator for life, rather than six months.
Julius Caesar's role as a political leader was unusual primarily because he was appointed dictator for life, which was unprecedented in Roman politics. Traditionally, a dictator in Rome was appointed for a limited term of six months during times of crisis, but Caesar's lifelong appointment marked a significant shift in the political landscape of the Roman Republic.
