Octavian and His Quest to a New Roman Empire

During the year 42 BCE, the Roman named Octavian made a comeback to Rome upon having heard of the death of Julius Caesar. Octavian collected his inheritance as the only heir to the empire of his granduncle. Along his return, he made clear of his position in lign with Lepidus and Mark Anthony who were friends to Caesar. He did that as an urge to bring done the group which bore the responsibility for the murder of Caesar. Later on, together with his allies, Octavian was able to topple down Cassias and Brutus

Even the forces of Mark Antony and his newly-found ally in the person of Cleopatra, were defeated by the great Octavian. This act brought no threat from the concepts of power abuse. The triumph of Octavian set forth a new era of the Roman empire.
