À propos de cet audio

The victory against Antony at Actium won Octavian sole control over Rome’s empire. No opposition remained, and Octavian was just 33 years old. For the next four and a half decades, Octavian thoroughly reshaped Roman society—from religion, to politics, to the social hierarchy—into an autocratic system centered upon a single semi-divine, all-powerful emperor. How did he unify an empire which had been torn apart by factionalism, political purges, violence and civil war? Find out on this episode of thePax Romana Podcast.
