Rome wasn't built in a day you know.
The power it also built up certainly wasn't obtained in a day either.
Rome wasn't always as powerful as it is in our time of the Pax Romana. Sure, it was powerful for quite the time, reaching over from the deserts of Africa, to the deserts of the Middle East, and much of the land in between. Now however, the Roman empire has never been better, with its many innovations (such as aqueducts, paved roads, and many more!)
This is thanks to efforts of many, this was achie
ved, but without the ringleader of it all, Augustus,the Rome we know today may have never been!
When his uncle Caesar was murdered he
really took the reins of the empire and put his power
to full effect. Conquering more territories
in Africa and surrounding nations, he really
demonstrated a commanding hand, that
knew what it was doing. He lead Rome into
the time of Pax Romana (meaning roman peace),
which was a time of the highest amounts
of prosperity in the empire of Rome.
