Virgil's primary intention in writing the "Aeneid" was to create a national epic that celebrated Rome's origins and destiny. He aimed to link the founding of Rome to the heroic legacy of the Trojan hero Aeneas, thereby legitimizing Augustus's rule and the Roman Empire's expansion. Additionally, the poem serves to explore themes of duty, fate, and the human condition, reflecting the values of Roman society and the importance of piety and sacrifice. Ultimately, Virgil sought to instill a sense of pride and unity among Romans through their shared history and values.
