Description

"I found Rome a city of brick and left it a city of marble" - Augustus (13 AD).
This quote, extracted from the Res Gestae Divi Augustae (The Deeds of the Divine Augustus),
sums up the extraordinary period that was the Augustan Century.
The civil wars came to an end thanks to his energetic action... The capital has been remodeled by Agrippa,
Augustus' son-in-law... The conquests created a secure zone of 4 million km² populated with 60 millions inhabitants !

2,000 years after his death,  the testament and legacy of Augustus remain astonishingly living...

PS : I have some doubts about the boundaries of Thracia in 14 AD so if you have other intel, plz share it with me :)
