The potentials of Augustus as a ruler are in my opinion far underrated in the history. Caesar’s son Augustus had murdered his father’s assassins in the very initial phase of his career. His triumph over Rome through uniting the nation by putting an end to sovereign kingdoms that were raging in full authority and ceasing the roman empire from uniting into a royal nation. The Pax Romana, the golden period in the history of Rome was brought upon by the emperor Augustus. The reign of Augustus as the emperor of Rome was a proclamation of his legacy.
