The Roman emperor

When You rent an apartment in Rome, during Your stay in the Eternal City, You'll realize the greatness of Rome thanks to the many archaeological wonders that you can visit in the town.

The Roman emperor is the head of the Roman state from 27 BC, when the Senate gave Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus the agnomen of Augustus. The term derives from the Latin "imperator", the title was originally full of religious meaning and subsequently awarded to victorious generals and contains within it the reference to the Imperium. Starting from Julius Caesar that title to be added, as praenomen, to the personal name of the most powerful man in Rome. The emperor was supreme ruler of Rome and supreme commander of the Roman legions and it emphasises the strong links between the ruler and the army (on whose support the ruler's power depended), and does not discriminate between the style of rule in different phases of the Empire.
The first emperor ruled Rome after years of fighting between rival leaders. His name was Octavian. He took a new name, Augustus, when he became Emperor in 27 B.C. Augustus brought peace after years of fighting. The Emperor had a troop of special soldiers to protect him. They were called the Praetorian Guard.
