Augustus: The Path to Power. The 17-year-old Octavius was at Apollonia (in present-day Albania) when the news of Caesarâs death and his own inheritance arrived. The dead rulerâs allies, including many in the senate, rallied around Octavian against their powerful rival Mark Antony.
The Battle of Actium in 31 B.C., in which Mark Antony was defeated and subsequently committed suicide with Cleopatra, was the precursor to Octavian's rise to absolute power. At just 32 years of age he rose to control Rome's affairs as perennial consul.
