Of course the Populares, though as Lumine says, hindsight makes the choice much easier.

Generally, I'd be very skeptical of the claim that Rome was not already an empire by 49 BC, or that the Optimates were not equally culpable in the fall of the republic. Let's not forget that the first general to march on Rome was not Caesar, but Sulla.
