In the Principate period 1st Century BCE to 2nd Century CE, the emperors exercised increasing influence and power by assuming control of the border provinces (where the army was) and taking on the powers of pro-consul (which gave them power outside the city) and tribunes of the plebs (which gave them the right of veto in the popular assembly).
