I just have to warn you that it's been about four years since I've studied this play, so you'll have to fill in the details yourself.
Brutus vs himself- his loyalty and friendship to Caesar vs his own pride, ego, worries that Caesar as king will overthrow the republic.
I think the whole thing was the conspirators felt that Caesar was going to go nuts ruling Rome alone because before he killed Pompey Rome was ruled by a triumvirte. While Caesar didn't rule long enough for this to happen, the Conspirators killed him anyways. A good line to remeber when studying this play is "absolute power corrupts and power corrupts absolutely" ]
