The main way the Roman army was supported by the peoples in the empire was in troop recruitment. The provincials were willing to enlist because or the steady pay and Roman citizenship upon discharge. Provincials made up the Roman auxiliary cavalry and the auxiliary light infantry. Also specialty forces such as bowmen and slingers were auxiliary recruits.
Actually the army supported Augustus. As the winner of the final civil war of the Roman Republic, after defeating Marc Antony, he emerged as the leader of the whole of the Roman army. He pardoned the troops who had fought for Marc Antony and became the military supremo. He created a military treasury so that the army was paid by the imperial treasury, thereby ensure the loyalty of the soldiers to him as their paymaster (previously they had been paid by their commanders). He created a standing army by having the soldiers serve all year round instead of only during the military campaigning season of when there was fighting. He increased the length of service from 16 to 20 years plus five-years as reservists. He retained the grant of a lump sum of money or a plot of land to farm on discharge provided for by the Marian reforms of the Army of 107 B.C. This was very important not only because it was an incentive to join the army, but also because Augustus reduced the size of the army by more than half (from 60 to 28 legions). The army had grown oversized as legions were levied by the fighting parties during the civil wars. Augustus confiscated land in Italy to give it to the veterans and established Roman colonies (settlements) around the empire. The remaining soldiers were stationed in the frontier areas of the empire.
Taxes were placed on people who had been conquered.
