What was Augustus's vision for Rome?
My vision was for a restored and enduring Republic, one that honored its traditions while embracing necessary reforms for stability. I aimed to alleviate the burdens of war and ensure justice and security for all. Through careful management of resources, the promotion of civic virtue, and the divine favor of the gods, I sought to cultivate an environment where Roman society could flourish. My efforts, detailed in the Res Gestae, were dedicated to this singular purpose: the perpetual strength and well-being of Rome.
