Augustus executed his enemies because he saw what happened to Julius when he tried to make peace with them.

This man still has a month named after him: August. The reason why August and July both have 31 days is because Augustus wanted his month to have the same number of days as the previous month, which is named after his uncle Julius Caesar.

"May he be luckier than Augustus, and better than Trajan."
-The challenge to an Emperor upon his coronation.

What Octavian achieved at such a young age and against such formidable opposition is absolutely mind blowing. By far one of the most impressive figures in history.

Augustus and Agrippa was the best bromance in history

Wow I never knew Augustus played Cleopatra like a fiddle. Damn what a badass.

Gaius Octavius literally defined the greatness of the Roman Empire. To do him justice, the Biographics episode had to be equally epic in format. Thank you for doing Augustus justice.

“I have brought peace, freedom, justice, and security to my new empire.”
-Augustus (probably)

Pet theory: one of the reasons why Julius named Octavian his heir was because Julius saw himself in Octavian. Octavian was always sickly and Julius suffered from a secret illness like strokes or seizures. A smart, ambitious man with health issues in need of an heir gets to meet his smart, ambitious nephew with health issues.

I love how octavian was never alone, as I suppose most people normally are playing the high stakes game for absolute power; he always had his stronk and loyal bff on his side, it's pretty heartwarming and not to mention heartbreaking to imagine the death of someone who wasn't just your no 1 ally, but simultaneously your closest and maybe only real friend

“I found Rome a city of bricks and left it a city of marble”. Augustus.
With Augustus’ taking the throne of Rome, the long civil wars ended in the Empire and became so-called pax romana. The economy began to prosper, and in connection with this, mass-extraction from the mine in Carrara (northern Italy) was started – Carrara marble. The massive mining of marble allowed the ruler to start numerous constructions in the capital and throughout the Empire.

As a Historia Civilis fan I remember all of this as squares

As a 19yr old boy the bond Agrippa and Augustus shared made me shed in tears

The real history of Ancient Rome is better than any movie or novel could ever be. Truly epic.

We all need an Agrippa in our lives.

Some great people get a day of remembrance. Augustus got a month named after himself.

I like to think that Augustus was the one to give Claudius opportunities because perhaps he saw a bit of himself in him, both being sickly and largely underestimated despite their cunning. Claudius would of course bloom a lot later than Augustus but it would turn out that those two in the end would be the best parts of the Julio-Claudian dynasty
