Some of the challenges came from the fact that Augustus established his absolute personal rule while pretending not to be doing so and claiming that he was continuing the Roman Republic. He made an arrangement with the senate (the first settlement) which formalised this pretence.
Some unrepublican aspects of his rule caused problems. He held the consulate (the office of the two heads of the Republic) for eight years. The consuls were supposed to be elected annually and not to be re-electable for ten years. He also wished his nephew to become his heir. This alienated even his strongest supporters. Then he fell seriously ill and gave his personal property to his heirs. When he recovered he gave up the consulship. This meant that he could no longer be the ruler of Rome. In addition to this, the lawyers a provincial governor on trial for waging a war near Greece without the approval of the senate claimed that Augustus had secretly ordered him to do this. This would have been a breach of the agreement with the senate and expose the mentioned pretence. A worried Augustus turned up at the trial even though he had not been summoned. The governor was found guilty, but the jury was not unanimous. Augustus then struck a second settlement with the senate in which he remained in charge despite no longer being a consul. A year after this there was a conspiracy which was foiled. The conspirators were tried in absentia and executed when they were captured.
Augustus expanded the Roman Empire. Expansion into Illyria (roughly the area of the former Yugoslavia) led to the Great Illyrian Revolt, which lasted four years and was judged to have been the most difficult conflict since the Punic Wars. Augustus also ordered the invasion of Germania. The Romans pushed into southern and central Germany. However, three Roman legions were wiped out by an alliance of Germanic tribes at the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. As a result, the borders of the empire were returned to their previous position, the Rivers Rhine and Danube.
