Claudius replaced Caligula after the former emperor was murdered. He was a reclusive and suffered physical deformities. He was unveiled to the public at the age of 46 by his nephew, only in order for his nephew to spite the Senate. He turned out not to be an incompetent ruler. In fact the only poor decision he made was to marry his niece (the future mother of Nero).
