I think Emperor Nero is worse because he killed his mom, poisoned his stepbrother, killed both his first wife and girlfriend. Also blamed the Christians for burning part the city of Rome. But King John was just a bad ruler in general.

I agree with Tyler. Nero was unnecessarily violent and cruel. King John was bad at ruling, but not a terrible person.

I agree with Tyler they were both pretty bad, but Nero was just plain cruel. King John was pretty bad, but he was just a terrible ruler not a bad person.

I totally agree with you Tyler . Nero definitely was worst because like you said he killed his mother , poisoned his stepbrother, and killed both of his first wife and girlfriend. Also because he did blame all the Christians for burning part of Rome. King John was not as bad as Nero. Yes he was bad but not that bad. This is why Nero was worst ruler than King John

I think Emperor Nero was worse. Nero killed most of his family and burnt down part of Rome, blaming it on someone else. King John may have not made the best choices, but he did listen to his nobles and signed the Magna Carta.

I agree with you Haley about Nero being the worst. The violence and destruction was unnecessary. He also just did it because he was selfish, a statue of himself, and not trustworthy.

I agree with Haley. Nero was worse because of all the poor decisions he made. King John also made poor decisions but they were not as bad as the ones Nero made.

I agree with Haley. Although King John mad some bad decisions, Emperor Nero notoriously killed Christians even though they did not don anything.

I agree with Haley. Nero killed his family for power and burned down some of Rome. Although King John made many poor decisions in ruling he was not nearly as bad as Nero.

I think that emperor Nero was worse. He burnt down part of Rome and blamed Christians, starting the persecution of Christians. Though King John did make some bad decisions but in my opinion Nero was worse.

I don't really like disagreeing with people but Emma I disagree. Yeah Nero was bad but the family thing didn't have much to rule with. The question is who was the worst ruler. Not who was the worst family member. Yeah people might correct me and such but another thing is that even though Nero burned it down and blamed it on Christians. He still kept the land. But King John, he lost land and never regained it back. But with Nero they could build it back.

I think Nero was worse because he killed a lot of his family and burnt down some of Rome which is awful. Even though King John made many poor decisions they were not as bad as what Nero did. Also King John signed the Magna Carta, which was good.

I agree Sofia Nero was pretty much all around worse. Although King John also did bad things Nero was earlier in a little more barbaric times.

These two leaders were terrible in similar and different ways. King John killed his nephew and broke the law. But Nero killed most of his family, destroyed most of Rome and blamed the Christians. Nero was overall the worse ruler ever.

I think both rulers were not good but Nero was the worst in my opinion. I think this because Nero burned down some of Rome and blamed it on Christians which made lots of riots and Christians dying. This did not help the Empire at all, although King John lost lots of land I still believe Nero was a worse leader.

Both were considered leaders even though neither posses the leadership qualities or characteristics but awful leaders at that. Even though both were terrible, I think that Nero was worst because of the massacre of so many Christians. He wasn't trustworthy either but neither was King John.

I think the worst ruler was King John. 1st of all he went to war with France so many times that all it did was lose land. Then he tries to go against the nobles but that didn't work out to well. And he also made England lose all the church services.

I think Emperor Nero was a worse ruler compared to King John. Emperor Nero killed most of his family and burnt down part of Rome then blaming it on the Christians. King John did make some bad decisions, but he did listen to his people. For those reasons I believe Emperor Nero of Rome was a worse ruler compared to King John.

I think Nero and King John were both terrible rulers. Nero was cruel and selfish. He not only blamed the Christians for setting a fire, even though he did it, but he used the space for his own entertainment. Nero also murdered some of his family members. While, King John wanted all the power and was just terrible at ruling. For these reasons I think Nero was worse than John.

I would say emperor Nero, WHO THE HELICOPTER WOULD POISON THEIR OWN BROTHER >:(. I would also say because he killed his own wife, HIS OWN WIFE, I personally when I have a wife, I would never hurt her on purpose. Nero also killed his mother, I would rather die than have my mother killed, mabye it's because she's having a baby soon, but either way, also King John only killed 1 person, Nero killed 3 and who knows mabye even more.
