After removal of the kings, leadership from the 5th Century BCE onwards devolved to two Consuls elected annually. After the civil wars which led to the Augustus settlement (27 BCE) he and his successors became first citizen, and dominated the political process, although the consuls remained. The successors became more like emperors, and took the title of Caesar after the deified Julius, whom Augustus claimed as his father.
