Augustus Caesar was the first emperor of the Roman Empire, which he ruled alone from 27 BC until his death in 14 AD.

Among his many achievements made to improve the status of the Roman empire were the following.

A. He ushered in almost two centuries of relative peace. ( yes there were exceptions )

B. By reducing the use of war to expand the empire, he gave the people more time to develop cultural progress and prosperity. Historians hail this as "PaX Romana" which lasted many decades after Augustus died.

C. As emperor, he sought the security of the empire by using diplomacy to solve provincial problems.

D. He enforced his idea that the larger the empire became, the more risk it developed for security and thus reduced the number of legions to a large extent.

E. To ensure control of the military, the legions had to swear their allegiance to him personally as emperor. This negated the Roman senate or provincial governors from raising their own armies or engaging in conquests without the approval of the emperor.

F. His policies and reforms can be summarized as:

F1. Established a more efficient and stable government with properly trained bureaucrats

using sound economic structures to avoid waste and mismanagement.

F2. Established a fair system of taxation, ended the corruption of out sourcing the collection of taxes by less than honest tax collectors.

F3. Held in check any actions in the Provinces that attempted to circumvent his pronounced polices of fair and equitable government. Listed below are some of the facts and dates of his regime.
