Did Caligula really declare war on Neptune?
A story about the day emperor Caligula ordered his soldiers to fight with the waves, declaring war on Neptune.

The actual beach where Caligula commanded his legions to attack the surf was the coast of northern France facing Britain. When reality resists a mad emperor's grand plans, even the sea will become the stage for rage. He howls at the tide, but his screams are drowned by the noise of thundering surf.
