As Rome's first emperor, Octavian (Augustus Caesar) (63 B.C.–A.D. 14) is best known for initiating the Pax Romana, a largely peaceful period of two centuries in which Rome imposed order on a world long convulsed by conflict. Octavian was only 18 years old when his great-uncle Julius Caesar named him heir.
