In ancient times, the Roman Republic lasted approximately 500 years due to various factors. The military prowess and technological skills of the Romans are two such factors. Perhaps above all, however, was the character of the Romans: they doggedly valued and protected (and also promoted) their way of life as few other ancient societies did.

Did Augusts save the Roman Republic or destroy it?

Augustus neither saved the Roman republic nor did he destroy it, he changed it. The Roman Republic had self-destructed by the time of Julius Caesar. Augustus, being one of the most politically astute men in history, used the mechanisms of the Republic to consolidate the power in himself. Thus, the change from Republic to Principate was for the most part a smooth transition. This was aided by the fact that the Romans were sick and tired of the civil wars and that Augustus had a long reign so the idea of the Principate could be firmly established.

It all depends on when you feel that the republic ended. It was begun in 510 BC. However some feel the republic ended with the death of Julius Caesar because afterwards there was the triumvirate. Others feel that the republic was over when Octavian took complete power in 30 B. So, if you date its end at Caesar's death, it lasted about 466 years. If you date it at Octavian's takeover, it lasted 480 years. Take your pick.
