Octavian | Estateplanning | Vibepedia.Network

Octavian, also known as Augustus, was the founder of the Roman Empire and its first emperor, reigning from 27 BC until his death in AD 14. He established the principate, a system of government where the emperor showed nominal deference to the Senate, and initiated the Pax Romana, a period of relative peace and stability. Born into the plebeian gens Octavia, Octavian rose to power after the assassination of his great-uncle, Julius Caesar, and went on to become one of the most influential leaders in Roman history.
