To help strengthen the Roman government, Augustus used a two pronged approach. First, he kept the important powers for himself as the "first citizen". By doing this he insured that he would have the necessary time to carry out his reforms, as opposed to the one year term limit imposed on the consuls. The second major prong of his approach was in the area of the military. To lessen the chance of another civil war disrupting the Pax Romana, Augustus had all the legions swear their oath of allegiance to him rather than to their commanders as had been done previously. This way an ambitious general would have a difficult time persuading his troops to march on Rome, as the Romans took oaths very seriously.
By building a professional army of about 150,000 men- all Roman citizens. Augustus also formed the Praetorian Guard which consisted of about 9,000 men in charge of guarding the emperor. He also fed the poor. And lastly he made the tax systems fairer.
An empire is territorial, a republic is a form of government.
The Romans established an empire from the 3rd Century BCE. It had a republican form of government which was breaking down into civil war by Caesar's time, and he made himself dictator to try to solve it. After his assassination, Octavian Augustus established the Principate with himself a leader in conjunction with the Senate - the empire continued on ruling the peoples of south and west Europe.
He reigned an era of peace and prosperity. Romans worked forward and discovered many things still in use today.
He cut a deal with the Senate to share power.
Augustus brought the Roman Republic to an end and established the 506-year period of rule by emperors.

There was only the Roman Empire. This is the only term the Romans had. Eastern Roman Empire and Western Roman Empire are terms invented by historians. What happened is that co-emperors were established, with one in the eastern part and the other in the western one. This was done to improve the defence of vast frontiers of the empire which were often under attack. One emperor concentrated on those in the west and the other on those in the east. Therefore, it cannot be said that the Eastern Roman Empire helped to unite an empire which was not divided.
A strong military and organizational abilities.

He was a proud man because he was one of the greatest emperors of Rome. He was the one who helped the Roman empire spread from Anatolia, Turkey, all the way to Egypt, Greece, Rome, Spain, Gaul, (which is now France) and parts of England. Because he helped spread the Roman Empire to all of those different places, it helped strengthen and unite the Roman Empire during his lifetime. He also was a humanitarian. He helped the Plebians- which were the poor people who didn't own any land, join the Roman army in promises of land and money. So he had the right to be one of the proudest men in history!
