Augustus:
1) Gained control over Rome and the territories she had conquered by winning the Final Civil War of the Roman Republic against Mark Antony and his ally, Cleopatra the VII of Egypt.
2) Established himself as an absolute ruler and as the first Roman emperor in the First Settlement (27 BC) and the Second Settlement (23 BC) with the senate.
3) He created the final solution to the problem of tax farming. Tax collection in the provinces (conquered territories) had been carried out by private contractors who "farmed" tax collection to line their pockets by carrying out excessive and oppressive collection. Julius Caesar had already eliminated this by reverting to the older system of getting the provincial cities to do the collecting. Augustus handed the system to paid imperial bureaucrats. This ensured a fairer and more consistent system of tax collection and improved relations with the peoples in the provinces.
4) He created conditions which favoured the development of thriving trading networks around the empire by ensuring that taxes were not too much of a burden, promoting private enterprise and infrastructure projects (roads, bridges, and ports). He also was keen to tap further into Egypt's trade with India via the Red Sea and with Ethiopia.
5) He expanded the empire. The pushed the frontiers of Africa further inland. He completed the conquest of Spain and he conquered the Alpine regions (Rhaetia and Noricum) to improve the protection of Italy from possible attacks from the north.
6) He promoted extensive public works in the city of Rome. He said "I found Rome a city of bricks and I have left it a city of marble."
Augustus' major cultural achievement was his support of literature. The three canonical poets of Latin literature, Virgil, Horace and Ovid.
He put an end to the civil wars and established stable government in partnership with the Senate.
expanding the empire and extending trade routes to India and China. Also restoring peace and order to Rome.
