Extractions: Roman Empire Definition: The first Roman Emperor. His real name was Octavian, and he was Julius Caesar's adopted son. He played a large role in the civil war that followed Julius Caesar's assassination, and his victory and strength made him an ideal candidate to fill the void in government left by Caesar's death. In between, he was a member of the Second Triumvirate, along with Marc Antony and Lepidus. When Antony became involved with Cleopatra (Egypt's pharaoh) and decided to fight Rome, Octavian played a part in defeating Antony's forces. Once Antony was out of the way and Lepidus was forced to retire, Octavian was free to become Augustus Caesar. Related Resources:

Extractions: Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Bronze Augustus, Archaeological Museum, Athens Augustus Caesar 23 September 62 BC 19 August AD ), known earlier in his life as Octavian , was the first Roman Emperor . Although he preserved the outward forms of the Roman Republic , he ruled as an autocrat for more than 40 years. He ended a century of civil wars and gave Rome an era of peace, prosperity and imperial greatness. He is generally known to historians by the title "Augustus" (revered one), which he acquired in 27 BC Augustus was born at Rome with the name Gaius Octavius Thurinus .

More importantly, his mother Atia was the niece of Rome's greatest soldier and de facto ruler, Julius Caesar . In 46 BC Caesar, who had no legitimate children, took his grand-nephew soldiering in Spain, and adopted him as his heir (see also adoption in Rome ). He then took the name Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus. When Caesar was assassinated in March 44 BC , his young heir was with the army at Apollonia, in what is now Albania .

http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/prehistory/egypt/history/people/augustus.html

Extractions: 63 B.C.E. - 14 C.E. Octavian Augustus is known as the first, and one of the greatest, Roman Emperors ever. Octavian enabled the long, peaceful time of the Pax Romana by changing Rome from a fragile, crumbling republican government to a mighty empire. Octavian was born on September 23, 63 B.C.E. His great-uncle was Julius Caesar and, therefore, he had many political connections in Rome. Caesar favored Octavian from an early age. In 48 B.C.E., Caesar had his fifteen-year-old great nephew elected to the priestly college of the pontifices, and he also enrolled him in the hereditary patrician aristocracy of Rome. Octavian joined Caesar in 46 B.C.E. on a campaign against Pompey Cleopatra and Antony. Octavian defeated his foes at the naval battle of Actium and became sole ruler of Rome. In 27 B.C.E., Octavian made a bold and clever political move by declaring the Republican Government restored. He immediately offered to resign from the position of consul, but the Senate, instead of accepting his offer, decided to give him the position of princeps. The Senate also gave him the name Augustus, meaning "revered one". The Senate decided to give Octavian control of the provinces of Gaul, Syria, Spain and Egypt. These areas had large numbers of troops stationed within their borders giving Octavian almost total military authority. While the household managed the daily affairs of the empire, Octavian made it his duty to beautify the city. He once said that he had found the city in brick, and left it in marble. Octavian reformed the tax system by taking a census to determine how much each province should pay in taxes. He held strong beliefs in traditional Roman religion. He restored over 80 temples and passed strict moral laws that mirrored older Roman values. When Octavian died in C.E. 14, his achievements seemed remarkable, and they would only become more remarkable as time passed. Octavian had adopted his stepson Tiberius and made it clear he would be his successor.
Octavian To Augustus: Images
Coin images and other objets d'art reflecting Roman history from Julius Caesar through the Triumvirates to augustus caesar. Images, scant text.
http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~ekondrat/Octavian3.html

Extractions: During the decades leading up to Julius Caesar's dictatorship, Roman coinage took on an increasingly personal character, displaying designs with a clear propagandistic message promoting the family or the political favorites of the moneyer who struck the coins for that year. Types commemorated victories, beneficent legislation, famous ancestors, and the like. The trend reached an extreme in early 44 BC when Caesar, stockpiling money to pay for his imminent Parthian campaign, had coins struck with his own portrait, a first for the official coinage of Rome (the images of living Romans had appeared on coins at the periphery of the empire as early as ca. 196 BC, but never on Rome's official state issues). This move was counted as one among many which showed Caesar's tendency towards monarchical behavior and which resulted in his assassination. Far from removing this problem of self-aggrandizement on coinage, however, Caesar's death left the field open for a wide array of would-be rulers who copied the trend to promote themselves, first among the soldiers who supported their causes (for pay and rewards of booty), secondly among the rest of the populace. Thus, we have today a most interesting numismatic documentation of portraits and propagandistic messages of the men who struggled for power in the political vacuum left by Caesar's sudden departure; more to the point, we also can trace the rise to power of Octavian, who ultimately became Rome's first Emperor, known otherwise as Augustus. These are presented below.

Extractions: University of Central Arkansas During the 1st century BCE, Rome was experiencing difficulties within the Republican government. In the later half of the century, one man rose to power and completely changed Rome. By using the army and republican institutions, he turned Rome from a declining republic into an empire that would last for centuries. This man was Octavian Augustus Caesar. Octavian was able to be a part of the political scene in Rome because he came from a Patrician family who had connections within the Senate of Rome. Octavian was born on September 23, 63 BC, to Atia, the niece of Julius Caesar. As the great-nephew and adoptive son of Julius Caesar, Octavian was able to gain entry into the political sphere of Rome. In 48, at the age of fifteen, Octavian, through Caesar's influence, was elected to the priestly college of the pontifices, and in 45, he went to Apollina, in Illyria to round out and complete his education. His education was interrupted in 46 B.C., when he went to Spain with his great-uncle and adoptive father, Julius Caesar. While he was in Spain he and his uncle fought against the sons of Pompey the Great.

Biographies Written by: Unregistered The year 509 BC Rome finally became a Republic and thus started the Roman empire. As Rome rose to power they went through many wars and many conflicts between the plebeians and patricians. The republic was made out of 3 groups, the consuls which were 2 men elected from the senate, the senate which was made of 300 patricians, and the assembly made from plebeians. Many years later Rome started to reject the republic when it went into a series of civil wars. 3 men form the first triumvirate, Julius Caesar, Pompeii, and Crassus. Julius Caesar became the victor. He was then rewarded dictator for life. On the date September 23, 63 BC a boy was born. He was originally Caesar's grand-nephew. This boy would later grow to a power and change Rome for good. Around the years 16-15 BC, was formed the beginning of a civil service in Rome. This had never been done before but was destined to become an essential feature of the imperial system. Around the same time, a completely reformed administrative structure of Rome, Italy, and the entire empire was matured. The empire's financial system at the time was far more superior to anything else in the entire empire. This great financial system was based on the central treasury, but the details of its relationship with the treasuries of the provinces, and most of all the province of Augustus, are still unsatisfactory understood. Mainly because, even though the emperor proudly recorded his gifts to the central treasury, he did not report what funds passed in the opposite direction.

He restructured government, reformed the money system, built a vast network of roads, and in the capital itself erected many buildings of architectural importance. Octavian - his name until he acquired his imperial title Augustus, meaning "Venerable" - was the great-nephew and adopted heir of Julius Caesar . When his great-uncle was assassinated, in 44 BC, he traveled to Rome to claim his inheritance. The following year, after becoming a senator and a consul, he formed a triumvirate with Mark Antony and Lepidus to govern Rome.

Extractions: Augustus Caesar The Death of Julius Caesar See my poster. See my 3-D project. Julius Caesar was murdered by Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius, who led a group of aristocrats in a plot to kill Caesar. They killed him on March 15, 44 B.C. They stabbed him to death as he entered a Senate meeting. He got over 20 wounds from men who had accepted his favors and who he had believed were his friends. The murder led to a war between Augustus and other rivals. The outcome was the empire. Octavian and his partner Mark Antony conquered Macedonia from Brutus and Cassius who were 2 of the republicans who plotted against Julius Caesar. While Antony settled the east Octavian had the task of settling veterans in Italy. In Caesar's will, Octavian was adopted and made Octavian his heir. He got the help of the orator Circero to legalize his adoption over the objections of Antony, Caesar's chief lieutenant who seized Caesar's money and papers. After Antony and Cleopatra committed suicide together, Augustus was the sole ruler of Rome. Antony had controlled Rome after the death of Caesar, but when Antony died Octavian took over. Augustus the Emperor In 27 B.C., when Octavian became the first emperor of Rome, the Senate changed his name to Augustus meaning exalted and respected one. His official name was Imperator Caesar Augustus, but he was called Augustus. He proclaimed the restoration of the republic but was not willing to step down. In office he was given military command for 10 years and also the administration of the army in the provinces that the army was needed in. In 23 B.C., he received the tribunician power for life and assumed in this way the role of protector of Roman people.
