He wante d Cleop atra as an ornamen t of hi s victory and su mmoned P syllian sn ake charmers t o suc k the poison from he r self inflected wou nd. In 27 BC , p roclaimed Emperor of Ro me a s Augustus Caesar .

After 27 BC , he is kno wn as A ugustus. Octavi an Aug ustus was really t he greatest c ivi l leader that t he ancien t world ever prod uced.
