I pick: GAIUS JULUS CAESAR OCTAVIANUS, or better known as CAESAR AUGUSTUS.

Not only blessed with some sweet names, caesar augustus was the First Emperor of Rome. After the assassination of Julius Caesar, his uncle, Augustus formed the 2nd Triumvirate and would later take the thrown of one of the greatest empires ever for himself.

He had the respect of the Senate, the military, and the people.

He established a vast system of paved roads, reformed the Roman tax system, and created a standing army, which established the infamous Pax Romana, a golden age of peace for TWO HUNDRED YEARS.

After his death, he was named a GOD. His name was taken by all later emperors.

The month of August was named after him.

With a combination of intelligence, military prowess, political shrewdness and skillful rulership, Julius Caesar Augustus can be considered one of if not the greatest political ruler ever.

Is that an infant hanging from his cloak?!

Is that an infant hanging from his cloak?!

Not just any baby. That is supposed to be Eros, the son of Venus, the goddess of beauty. This is supposed to symbolize that Augustus was descended from the goddess of beauty herself. (Although it was also used as decoration as sculptors did not find a way to create free standing statues until later)

[Lebron23]

LeBron23 selects Charlemagne aka Charles the Great, the first Holy Roman Emperor.

Okay, since you're here, why don't you pick right now, and then in the second round you get the pick right after DirtBag (right before mine)? This would be the fairest way to do it, I hate do it because I jeopardize my 2nd round pick but hey, it's only fair.

qin shi huang

first emperor of a unified china. built the great wall, terracota army.

died of mercury poison.

[vapid]

Qin shi huang is a nice pick. Also, forceofnature, please edit my pick, as I picked Julius Caesar Augustus, the first emperor of rome, not Gaius Julius Caesar, the one who was assasinated on the Ides of March, so people can still pick him.
