Detailed explanation-1: -As Rome’s first emperor, Octavian (Augustus Caesar) (63 B.C.–A.D. 14) is best known for initiating the Pax Romana, a largely peaceful period of two centuries in which Rome imposed order on a world long convulsed by conflict. His rise to power, however, was anything but peaceful.
Detailed explanation-2: -Adopted by Caesar, Augustus (c. 62 BC – 14 AD / Reigned 31 BC – 14 AD) had to fight for his throne. His long rule saw a huge expansion in the Roman Empire and the beginnings of a dynasty that, over the next century, would transform Rome, for better and worse.
Detailed explanation-3: -Augustus had outlived his preferred heirs-his two grandsons. So when he died, it was his son-in-law, Tiberius, who became emperor.
