"I have brought peace, freedom, justice, and security to my new empire!"

>"I have brought peace, freedom, justice, and security to my new empire!"

But he did.

Your new empire?

It's kind of hard to argue with that statement. Augustus was a fucking boss. Shame that the rest of the dynasty was just insane lunatics.

Claudius wasn't insane, he was actually a great ruler. He was just really autistic.

Claudius was an opportunist who seized the thrown after Gaius was murdered.

So was every Emperor ever.

shame he didnt exterminated germanics

Have you ever heard the tragedy of Emperor Majorian the Unlucky? I thought not. It's not a story the Germans would tell you...

...

Augustus was an opportunist who seized the thrown(sic) after Julius was murdered.

Augustus was Caesar's chosen successor. Claudius was just a usurper.

who should the throne have gone to then?

if you can't stop a usurpation you weren't strong enough to rule

I'm honestly just LARPING right now but there actually is a Roman play where Claudius has his divinity revoked by a court of the gods for having taken advantage of the murder. Instead of becoming a God upon death, he is instead sentenced to became a slave in Gaius's administrative staff for all eternity.
