In the year 37, the Daleks took over the Roman Emperor Caligula with mind control. Planning to harness his power to become masters of the Earth and influence all of human history, the mind control turned him violent and blood-thirsty. However, it also had the unplanned effect of destroying his sanity. Acting outside of Dalek behavioural conditioning, Caligula ordered his army to attack the ocean waves and made his horse, Inciatus, his consul. When the Daleks tried to reassert control, Caligula refused to follow their orders and declared himself a living god. Because of the imbalance they inadvertently created, the Daleks abandoned the mission and returned to Skaro, reasoning that there were other nexus points in human history to manipulate instead.
