Caesar Augustus was the first emperor of Rome. Before him, Rome was ruled by the Senate.

However, the Senate had less and less power in the waning days of the Republic.

Before Caesar Augustus became emperor in 27 BC, he was part of a triumvirate with M. Lepidus and M. Antonius. The Senate was still nominally leading Rome.

Before that Julius Caesar held a lot of power before his assassination in 44 BC. But again, supposedly the Senate was still leading Rome.
