Augustus and Livia

Love, Power and Sword

For some, he is the murderer of the Roman Republic. There he was called Octavian. With the honorary name Augustus, he is the founder of the Roman Empire and celebrated as the “Emperor of Peace”. A man with two names and two faces. From his family not only his daughter was murdered. For he had a maxim: there can be only one Caesar. And Livia at his side added: And only one empress.
