What was the improvements and changes Augustus made to the roman empire during his reign?

Answer 1

He made changes by the Pax Romana which would rebuild Rome from the inside out by means of a peaceful Rome. He adjusted taxes made public works programs, and encouraged trade.

He reduced the power of Senate, made it so anyone could vote, made the Augustian code which was Roman law rewritten in basic western law, he paved 53,000 miles of road, made on unified religion, currency, and made his military stronger.

Answer 2

Augustus established the absolute rule by emperors which replaced the Roman Republic. He ended the practice of elections of executive officers of state by the popular assemblies by transferring the vote to the senate. He turned the senate into an instrument for his power and the officers of state became his appointees. He created his own (imperial) bureaucracy and run governance himself. He also assigned tax collection topaid officials of his government. This ended corruption in this area. Previously, this had been tendered to private individual who 'farmed' the collection to line their pockets.

Augustus took charge of the provinces of the empire which were near the borders and were most of the legions (army corps) were stationed, which gave him control of the army and left the control of some provinces under the control of the senate as a token gesture. He professionalised the army and took charge of funding the military by creating a military treasury under his control. This meant, among other things, that he was the one who paid the soldiers and was in charge of their pension. This ensured the soldiers' loyalty to him.

Augustus promoted the development of trade. He encouraged private enterprise and production for trade. He kept taxation low. He also promoted infrastructural development which facilitated trade. He had roads built, (particularly in Gaul and Hispania) ports and canals.

Answer 3

Augustus made many changes so here are a few of them. He rebuilt the city's infrastructure, such as sewer systems, water delivery systems and a new aqueduct. He divided the city into 14 wards with each ward having its civil servants, thus making the city easier o govern. He established the first police/fire department. But perhaps his most important change was in the military. He had the soldiers swear their oaths to him as first citizen, rather than to their generals as had been the custom previously. This eliminated the possibility of some ambitious general gathering troops and starting another civil war. (and it worked for a couple of hundred years) It also enabled the Pax Romana to take hold and bring prosperity to the empire.

Answer 5

Augustus changed Rome's government by replacing the decayed republic with the principate. He established a government with one "principal" authority, called the "princeps" or first citizen. He did this by allowing the appearance of the republic, with its senators, and elected officials, but he kept the meaningful powers for himself. The main one of these powers was the powers of the tribune. With this he could veto any legislation or override any decision not to his liking.

Answer 6

when Augustus took power the city of Rome became ruled by one dictator.

Answer 7

Augustus filled the senate with his supporters and reduce its number. :)
