The successors of emperors from Nerva through Antoninus Pius were primarily chosen based on a system of adoption rather than direct hereditary succession. Nerva initiated this practice by adopting Trajan, who in turn adopted Hadrian. This continued with Hadrian adopting Antoninus Pius, who then adopted Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. This approach allowed for the selection of capable leaders, focusing on merit and governance rather than bloodlines.
The throne was sold to the highest bidder and/or the emperors were killed shortly after crowned. Legions fought for their head to be emperors.
From among the generals who offered the armies the biggest bribes-
There were five good emperors (a term which was coined by Machiavelli and is still used). They were: Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius and Marcus Aurelius. Although Commodus was Marcus Aurelius' son and chosen heir, he is not considered one of the good emperors. He had little interest in state administration and delegated the running of the state to his favourites. He preferred to live outside Rome, spending his time hunting. His bad rule led to several conspiracies, his assassination and the so-called Year of the Five Emperors. In this year five men fought each other to become emperors. Four of them were deposed soon after usurping the tile. The last one, Septimius Severus, managed to hold on to power. Commodus' rule was described by an ancient historian as the descent "from a kingdom of gold to one of rust and iron."
The tittle got passed down from generation to generation. If someone took over China then they were called the emperor and the Chinese dynasty changed.

They were chosen by the Army. Whoever the army thought was most likely to succeed as emperor would control them and therefore the power.
Since you didn't name a specific person I will answer this in a general way. Emperors were seen as chosen by God and the people they ruled had no say in what they did.

During the period of the Roman Republic senators were enrolled for life. Former executive officers of state were given life membership of the Senate. However, the censors could suspend or strike off senators for misconduct. During the period of rule by emperors, the emperors appointed the senators.

Ideally the emperors were chosen by inheritance. A reigning emperor would appoint his successor. However sometimes an emperor died without designating an heir and then the man with the strongest military backing took over.Ideally the emperors were chosen by inheritance.

Agra fort was chosen as a World Heritage Site because it bears an exceptional testimony to a civilization which no longer lives, that of the Mongol Emperors. There are many beautiful buildings in the area and it is well deserving of the title of World Heritage site.
