the Roman Empire and its first Emperor who ruled from 27 BC to until

Rome ruled the empire for 300 years. He had a fantastic natural talent
intended for helpful statesmanship along with searching to be able to
protect the top traditions regarding republican Rome. He was the adopt-son

When Julius Caesar was killed in March 44 BC, Augustus became Julius's
heir to the throne. Before gaining the throne, he had to battle the armies of
both Cleopatra VII and Marc Antony. They had their own plans for power following Julius Caesar's death. Caesar Augustus was Roman Emperor, from 23 BC to 14 AD.
