Best Answer

The emperors usually were the main decider of what was allowed or what wasn't.

In that aspect they could rule until their death; murder or natural.

There was no time limit on their reign apart from age.

The longest ruling emperor was the first: Augustus who reigned for 41 years.

The length of time a Roman Emperor was allowed to rule had no time limits. Only the emperor assassination, natural life span or a voluntary resignation would end the rule of a Roman emperor.

As long as he lived, their was no legally binding time limit. Of course many Emperors were killed by opponents etc and replaced by others. But once Emperor you were Emperor unto death
