Why did Octavian adopt the title “Augustus” when the Senate names him Emperor of Rome?

History
1 answer:
svetlana [45]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Instead of following Caesar's example and making himself dictator, Octavian in 27 BC founded the principate, a system of monarchy headed by an emperor holding power for life. His powers were hidden behind constitutional forms, and he took the name Augustus meaning 'lofty' or 'serene'.

or

Upon his adoption, Octavius assumed his great-uncle's name Gaius Julius Caesar. ... Historians usually refer to the new Caesar as Octavian during the time between his adoption and his assumption of the name Augustus in 27 BC in order to avoid confusing the dead dictator with his heir.

Answer:

Scott was considered as property that could not be taken from its owner.

Explanation:

In the way this ruling was written, Dred Scott didn't have the right to sue in a Missouri's courts, since he wasn't considered a citizen.

Section C also basically states the the Missouri Compromise was unconstitutional and was considered void, as it deprived a US citizen of their property, which is what slaves were considered as at the time.

The arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union began when
Alika [10]

Answer:

The Soviet Union developed its own atomic bomb.

Explanation:

Among the world leaders, the United States was the first to develop and even test out its nuclear weapon. The attack of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during the Second World War helped project the US as the most powerful power.

But the development of nuclear arms by the Soviet Union led to competition for the world power. The Soviets developed their own atomic bomb and tested its very first atomic bomb in 1949. This nuclear test codenamed "<em>RDS-1" or "First Lightning"</em> at the Semipalatinsk test site in what is now modern-day Kazakhstan led to the race for power especially between the United States and the Soviet Union.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
