Augustus

Intended primarily for the people of the Rome. Augustus' account for his stewardship summarizes his career under three headings: the offices and honors congerred upon him, his expenditures out of his own funds for public purposes, his deeds in war and peace.
Augustus was the main ruler of his time and set all goals for the town.
