Emperor Augustus
Augustus was the first emperor of the Roman Empire. He began as a Roman statesman and military leader before moving on to a ruling position. Augustus is well-known for having brought peace to the land and beginning to rebuild the city. Through Augustus’s leadership, much of the land around the Mediterranean Sea was conquered. Of course, like many historical figures, Augustus is a controversial figure. The modern-day likeness of this Emperor shows softer features than one would expect, and he could easily be a model in today’s world!
