ROMAN EMPIRE Bear carefully in
mind: the following list presents the appearance of a monarchic succession, and
to modern ears "Emperor" is a kind of monarchic sovereign. But it was
not thus to the people living within this state, at least not at first. To them,
the Roman state was the "Principate" - rule by the first, primary, or
chief leader. That such a ruler held imperium was a natural thing, but
not necessarily signifying hereditary monarchy at all. Imperium was a condition
or status held by many in Republican times. An Imperator (one who requires, or
demands) was simply a supreme military commander, equivalent to a modern Field
Marshal or Fleet Admiral. The only thing setting Octavian Caesar apart from his
predecessors was that he had been granted imperium for life, and that he had
been styled "Augustus" (revered one). Even his use of Caesar
was merely a clan name, although it became imbedded as an imperial title later
on.
