The Roman general and leader, Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus, was known as Augustus. After winning the last civil war or the republic and transforming both the city of Rome and the government, the senate awarded him the title Augustus. This honor was given to him in 27 BC and from that time on he was known as Augustus or Augustus Caesar.
