Want or want. He surely needed Julias Caesar for propaganda at the time, since all his power lay in his connection to the name. His veterans was the reason Octavian needed his name because there lay his sole power. Once ge had an army he was someone but still petty in roman politics, so Cicero used him to get to Antony who was thought of as the real contender. Antony tried to keep the peace by negotiating with caesar's murderers and this was a point Octavian could use against Antony pressuring Antony to go after rhe murderers in order to not loose his momentum in the support from the veterans. The triumvirate was formed where Antony still got the obvious better part of the deal because he was still in the better position as leader of the empire. It was only after the murderers lay dead and Antony was in Egypt that Octavian was free to make his propaganda against Antony and turn over the Roman elite when Antony was not at Rome. His downfall was only cemented after his defeat against the Parthians though. Antony needed to win the war and if he had he would have gained the leverage needed to defeat Octavian but as he did not his reputation was tarnished amoung the people, a portion of the veterans and among the elite who began to fear what Octavian would do if they continued to support Antony.

100%! Julius Caesar was always far more the showman. Augustus was content with stability and an alliance with all peoples that would secure peace and prosperity for Rome, all the while not being perceived as "weak" by his enemies. He was a true politician who knew how to silence his pride and surround himself with those who knew more about specific areas of Roman life than he. That is what made him so successful.

Christus Regnet Augustus was seen as more significant in the imperial era but Gaius Julius Caesar is recognized as by far the greatest Roman to ever live now. Without Julius Caesar, Octavian would never have been in the position he was in to be able to consolidate his power. He likely wouldn’t have sniffed even senatorial power due to the fact that he was born into a rich but fairly minor, politically inactive family. His connection to Julius Caesar through his mother, Caesar’s niece (his sister’s daughter) gave him a step into the small circle of the great Roman political families, and his great uncle’s historic career gave him a cultural gravitas just from being his blood and named heir.

Emperor Augustus is the greatest Emperor of Rome and one of Europe greatest monarch's of all time. Julius Ceasar saw him as the right successor to his will for a reason. He brought fouth the longest peacful time in Roman history, creating the age of ''Pax Romana''. This period saw brilliant writer like Ovid, Virgil & Horace. He became Europe most influential leader and remember for his extreme generosity and humility. ''Civitatis'' mean first citizen of the state.

Octavius had been giving Antony a hard time for being with Cleopatra, and in response, Antony sarcastically applauded him for avoiding the beds of like five different Roman women, basically calling him a playboy and a scoundrel, while he defended himself by hanging that at least he was married to Cleopatra and not just boning around. Edit: Is it bad my first ever crush was on a long-dead historical figure? Talk about being timezoned. Still, I could never compete with Livia. She was badass enough on her own.

Augustus' main flaw was that he was too successful. He got rid of the republic and was so successful for so long that people forgot how to run the republic and got too used to autocratic rule. He also gave people the idea that his reign was the rule for an empire, when it was actually the exception. Very few people can handle that much power without become tyrannical, megalomaniacal, or corrupt. Augustus set up a system in which only someone of his stature could produce the same kind of results. Most of his successors weren't able to handle such power, but thanks to him, they had no choice. Only a handful of other emperors could manage as well as he could: Trajan, Constantine I, Justinian I, and arguably Marcus Aurelius and a few others. Not Hadrian, though. He was more interested in killing Jews, vanity building projects, and hanging out in Greece than being a good ruler.

I feel like you gave Augustus a bit too much credit and forgot to state one of his main reasons for success his choice of allies, Agrippa and Maecenas. Agrippa was extremely vital in his rule and is the reason for many of Augustus military victories and prestige. While, Augustus was not a bad military commander he was not that great without Agrippa. Not only that but Agrippa could be trusted not to try and seize power something which if he did do would be devastating for Augustus. Maecenas while less remembered was also vital serving to better mediate some of Augustus own political aims and mitigate his somewhat cruelness. This could be seen with the social reforms mentioned in the video where as in the video talked about as good they were harshly enforced and contributed to a decrease in his overall popularity though not enough to change the overall view he was good. It also didn't help that Augustus like many Romans(which is what made the reforms so unpopular) cheated on his wife and often. This all happened after Maecenas and Augustus had a falling out and shows us how influential he may have been in guaranteeing Augustus' success. Overall I'd see Augustus as a very politically savvy man and one who made up for his short comings by using others to improve himself and because of that and in spite of not being as well roundly good as Julius Caesar was able to accomplish more.

Diocletian was the first to split the empire in the late third century, almost 100 years before the Battle of Adrianople, but it was most definitely split by the time Constantine died in 337. I can see the contention for 395, since there was a loss of contact between the two, essentially...but, if you're going for the same contentions, just use 284 as the date, and not 395.

I'm not sure if this works. The tetrarchy considered itself to be a system of co-augusti and ceasers ruling one empire together. by 395 this administrative split had become a cultural split and they now either viewed their empires as separate or, in the case of the east, they viewed the other as an unruly subordinate. Obviously "the fall of Rome" is a vague phrase that garners a lot of contention but I think that placing it at the establishment of the tetrachy is a bridge too far. IMO a great argument can be made that, if we are going to set the fall of Rome to be the devision of the empire, it was a process that began in 284 and culminated in 395.

Of All My Intention No because 395 was the final split. Why would you use an earlier one?

He couldn't have played his part better, the only thing Julius Caesar had over him is seniority.

Caesar was a military genius, while Augustus really left other people carry his campaigns. Not not mention him fleeing from battles leaving the troops behind more than once when he thought his life was in danger.

Be like Augustus (obviously metaphorically). Rise to power and stay humble, bring the prosperity through action that others pray for. The true test of a king of kings. An Emperor.

Augustus is my personal hero and a capable leader, Caesar was absolutely right on the money. They are both legends, despite the bloodshed and human sacrifice which they were forced to adopt because they were men of their time.

Saying that Augustus was a tyrant would be ignorant, he is essentially an autocrat and ruled fairly well at that. I'd say he's a great leader that Rome needed, not a perfect man, but a great man for the situation of Rome at the time.
