Octavian was not one of the so-called five good emperors. The five good emperors were Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian, Antonius Pius and Marcus Aurelius and they reigned well over a hundred years after Octavian. Octavian was, however, a good emperor, perhaps the greatest that Rome produced.

Trajan, Hadrian and Marcus Aurelius are considered the most outstanding among the five good emperors. Aurelian, Diocletian, Constantine I (or the Great) Theodosius I (or the Great) and Justinian I (or the Great) are considered the most outstanding emperors after the five good emperors.
There were about 20 emperors during the Pax Romana. The time period covered the Julio/Claudian dynasty, the year of the four emperors, the Flavian dynasty, the Five Good Emperors and about half way through the Severan dynasty. Among them were Augustus, Vespasian, Trajan and Marcus Aurelius.
There was not a region of the five emperors. There was what historians have called the Year of the Five Emperors. After the emperor Commodus was assassinated, five men fought for the title on emperor and four of them were deposed. The five men were Pertinax, Didius Julianus, Pescennius Niger, Clodius Albinus and Septimius Severus. Septimius Severus was the man who managed to hold on to power and founded the Severan dynasty which lasted from 193 to 235 and had five emperors. Since all this happened within a year, it did not affect the prosperity of the empire.
Julius Caesar never actually was an emperor, he was murdered. He refused the title of emperor 3 times. The first emperor of Rome was his son Octavian (better known as Augustus).
There was no period of bad emperors as such. The term "five good emperors" is a historical tag given to the five emperors from Nerva to Marcus Aurelius because there was no great political crises during their reigns and the empire ran smoothly. A far as "bad emperors" went, you could say that every emperor had his negative points even Augustus -- some more than others.
