If I got the timeline right, he won the civil war in great style while also resolving pretty much all outstanding issues in foreign affairs in both Egypt (crushing the traitorous Ptolemaic elder brother) and Asia minor while showing clemency at almost every turn... gave huge plots of land to his exhausted veterans, and placated the senate with such grace that he was named dictator for life

Dictator for life... which he used to issue more reforms for like a month and then he RETIRED - yes, he gave away unlimited power at the height of his popularity.

And then 5 months later some 60 dudes stabbed him... in the name of freedom. Ya, an incredibly popular POPULIST who expanded freedoms at every turn in his final months... murdered in the name of freedom.

edit: and yes, I just watched a like 4 hour video on this
