The Julio-Claudian Dynasty (27 B.C. –68 A.D. )
The Julio-Claudian principate commenced with Augustus (r. 27 B.C. –14 A.D. ), and included the reigns of Tiberius (r. 14–37 A.D. ), Gaius Germanicus, known as Caligula (r. 37–41 A.D. ), Claudius (r. 41–54 A.D. ), and Nero (r. 54–68 A.D. ). During this time, Rome reached the height of its power and wealth; it may be seen as the golden age of Roman literature and arts, but it was also a period of imperial extravagance and notoriety. The Julio-Claudians were Roman nobles with an impressive ancestry, but their fondness for the ideals and lifestyle of the old aristocracy created conflicts of interest and duty. They cherished the memory of the Republic and wished to involve the Senate and other Roman nobles in the government. This proved impossible and eventually led to a decline in the power and effective role of the Senate, the elimination of other aristocrats through treason and conspiracy trials, and the extension of imperial control through equestrian officers and imperial freedmen. The emperors' power rested ultimately on the army, of which they were commanders-in-chief, and they had to earn (as in the case of Claudius) its respect and loyalty. The army not only ensured their control in Rome but also helped maintain peace and prosperity in the provinces.
