Rome was said to been founded by Romulus. However that was in the times of the kings. When we think of emperors, we think of the principate, which was founded by Augustus. Therefore, Augustus was the first emperor of Rome.

Augustus (formerly called Octavian) was the first emperor of Rome and his rule lasted for 41 years, from 27 BC to 14 AD. He oversaw the transition by defeating first his enemies from the Senate, who were responsible for the assassination of Julius Caesar, and then finally Mark Antony, his former ally, and his lover, the Egyptian queen Cleopatra.

How did the world change from Mesopotamia to ancient Rome?

Mesopotamia and Rome are two different areas. Mesopotamia is thought of as Turkey and the middle east. Rome is the city founded by Romulus when he bashed his brother Remus' head in with a rock. Rome was first ruled by kings (7 in all) and then turned into a republic. When Julius Caesar was assasinated by the senate in 44 bc, Augustus became the first emporer. Rome vastly expanded during the empire and when Christianity rose, Theodosius (A Roman Emporer) made it the official religion of the Empire. When the Visigoths invaded Rome in 476 AD, they forced the last Emporer (Romulus Augustulus) from the throne and the Empire fell.
