C. He was named dictator for life, rather than six months.
Julius Caesar's appointment as dictator for life was highly unusual in the context of Roman political norms, which typically limited the term of a dictator to six months during times of crisis. This consolidation of power and the permanent status of his rule were significant deviations from the established practices of the Roman Republic.
