After Caesar's death Marc Antony was in charge as he was the remaining consul. Now here's where things get messy. Cicero and the senate began to throw their weight around and young Octavian came to Rome. Antony snubbed Octavian, who then co- operated with Cicero against Antony. A war ensued, reconciliation, and the second triumvirate was formed culminating in Octavian winning the battle of Actium and becoming sole ruler. All this took about 13 years before Octavian/Augustus became the sole ruler.
