Julio-Claudian dynasty

|
The Julio-Claudian dynasty was the series of the first five Roman Emperors. They ruled the Roman Empire from 27 BC to AD 68, when the last of the line, Nero, committed suicide.
Dynastic relations
The dynasty is so named from the nomina or family names of its first two emperors: Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus and Tiberius Claudius Nero. The ruling line was founded upon an alliance between these two families, initially started through the marriage of Augustus to Livia, mother of Tiberius. See the Julio-Claudian family tree for the family relationships of these rulers, and their (dynastic) relation to Julius Caesar.
