Roman Empire

The Roman Empire was the post-Republican period of the ancient Roman civilization in which it handled an imperialistic and autocratic form of government. The Roman Empire held many territories around the Mediterranean in Europe, Asia and Africa.

The Roman Empire was founded by Octavian following the assassination of Gaius Julius Caesar and the succeeding civil wars that destabilized the Roman Republic. The government of the Roman Empire, the Senātus Populusque Rōmānus (SPQR), was heavily manipulated by the Templar Order throughout its existence. The Templars supported and influenced the Roman Emperor Caligula, until his assassination by the Assassin Leonius in 41 CE.
