Yes. "Let the world take note, you are the most immediate to the throne" says Claudius. Rosencrantz confirms it: "How can that be, when you have the voice of the King himself for your succession in Denmark?"
Gertrude, Hamlet's mother and wife of his Uncle Claudius, King of Denmark.
The Mousetrap.
Hamlet's mother is Gertrude. She is the queen of Denmark and is married to Claudius. She was originally married to Old Hamlet before he was murdered by Claudius. Gertrude is a weak woman that needs a man around her (ie. her quick marriage to Claudius). Gertrude loves Hamlet dearly, but also watches as Hamlet is sent away to his death.
Claudius and King Hamlet were brothers. Gertrude was married to King Hamlet first, and then she married Claudius.
His name is Polonius, except in the First Quarto when his name's Corambis. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern also act as advisors in a way. They're basically summoned by Claudius to be advisors on Hamlet's mental state.

It is called "The Murder of Gonzago". But Hamlet gives it a new name, "The Mousetrap", because he intends to trap Claudius with it.
He doesn't. Hamlet tells Claudius that the name of the play is the Mousetrap, not the other way around. The actual name of the play is The Murder of Gonzago but Hamlet is using it to trap Claudius and so gives it a different name.

Hamlet didn't write any letters to Laertes--ah, you mean "Did Claudius read the letter Hamlet wrote to Claudius out loud to Laertes?" I confess that it is difficult to phrase this question so it is unambiguous. Yes, Claudius reads the letter he got from Hamlet out loud to Laertes and asks whether Laertes can explain it.
The first thing I want you to know about Caligula is that his real name is Gaius Ceaser or Germania. Caligula got his nick name from a soldier when he came to work with his dad wearing a soldier outfit (Caligula's father was in the army) getting the name that stuck. Caligula means little soldiers boots so.... Ok so now i will tell you the answer you were looking for. Caligula gained power when Tiberius died on March 16 AD 37 and left everything for Caligula. Oh and in case you didn't know Tiberius was Caligula's cousin
