    I just reread Suetonius´ Life and a few articles on Caligula.
    The other major source is Dio -which i´ll probably read soon. There a few biographies in English too.

    Suetonius is full of Black Adder like stuff, the only problem is chronology (when will Black Adder be consul?)Here´s a brief chrono of the reign;

    -March 37, Caligula made Emperor
    -October 37, Caligula´s illness ends the honeymoon
    -May 38, executions of Macro and Gemellus
    -38, death of Drusilla
    -38-39, Caligula marries Lollia Paullina
    -39, Caligula marries Caesonia
    -39, Caligula leaves for Gaul. September, Lentulus Gaetulicus and Aemilius Lepidus exucuted for conspiracy, Caligula´s sisters Agrippina and Livilla exiled.
    -39-40 Caligula´s German and British "campaign".
    -August 40, Caligula returns to Rome
    -January 41, Caligula murdered
