The real nature of political power in Augustan Rome was not a monarchy in the sense of one-man rule as late as 13 BC. Augustus led a junta of extremely powerful, mostly militaristic magnates whose combined auctoritas intimidated all potential rivals. He shied away from the idea that he was the undeclared king and even went to heroic steps to avoid the label of autocrat. After years of weighing in his mind the best possible partner and the political solution to the reality that he had eliminated all rivals in his rise to power during an era of bloody civil war and uneasy interims, he decided to make his right hand man, Marcus Agrippa, his equal in power. To do so would require a steady build-up of Agrippa's stature, for although he was a first rate general, Agrippa was a novus homo, and thus lacked the dignitas to lead others in the absence of Augustus.

520 $a The real nature of political power in Augustan Rome was not a monarchy in the sense of one-man rule as late as 13 BC. Augustus led a junta of extremely powerful, mostly militaristic magnates whose combined auctoritas intimidated all potential rivals. He shied away from the idea that he was the undeclared king and even went to heroic steps to avoid the label of autocrat. After years of weighing in his mind the best possible partner and the political solution to the reality that he had eliminated all rivals in his rise to power during an era of bloody civil war and uneasy interims, he decided to make his right hand man, Marcus Agrippa, his equal in power. To do so would require a steady build-up of Agrippa's stature, for although he was a first rate general, Agrippa was a novus homo, and thus lacked the dignitas to lead others in the absence of Augustus.
520 $a In 17 BC Augustus and Agrippa chaired the Saecular Games to usher in a new era of history that Augustus hoped would be a new Golden Age. After this disturbances in the provinces called both Augustus and Agrippa away, and the opportunity gave Agrippa experience and prestige for managing foreign affairs on his own standing (with both maius imperium and tribunicia potestas). When the two returned simultaneously to Rome in Summer 13, the Senate, grateful to them for pacifying the provinces voted to build an altar of Augustan peace, the Ara Pacis Augustae. At this same ceremony Augustus had the privilege of closing the third time the Gates of Janus to show that the entire Empire was at peace.
