About this listen
Augustus was a tough emperor to follow. When he died in 14 AD, his personal state was passed on to a man who seemed unsure of whether he wanted it—Augustus’ adopted son Tiberius. Tiberius was clearly not Augustus’ first choice—only being adopted after Augustus’ grandchildren conveniently died. And Tiberius would only be in charge a few years before many others in Rome also began to question whether this new emperor was up to the job.
