(Tiberias Claudius Drusus). Upon the death of Caligula the same Pretorian guard that had murdered him proclaimed Claudius the emperor. While it was assumed he was simple minded (infantile paralysis), he proved to be a very able adminstrator and took part in the A.D. 43 invsion of Britain. He may have been murdered on the orders of his wife Agrippina, who had her son Nero made heir to the throne.
