Answer:

➢ The Emperor of Rome was already the most powerful man on earth, but this wasn't enough. Augustus wanted a piece of heaven too: he was determined that his people would see him as their supreme spiritual leader. Roman religion had many gods and spirits and Augustus was keen to join their number as a god himself.
