Julius Caesar was never an emperor of Rome. He was a dictator, which was an appointed office under the republic. After his death, Rome was ruled by the second triumvirate and then Caesar's heir and grand-nephew, Octavian, became the first emperor of Rome. He was subsequently given the title Augustus.

Octavian "Augustus" Caesar succeeded Julius Caesar. However, Julius Caesar was never the emperor of Rome. Augustus was the first emperor of the Roman Empire. In the will of Julius Caesar, Caesar chose his nephew Octavian as his heir and successor. Caesar's close friend Mark Antony however, thought Caesar's own son should be the heir. The result was war between Octavian and Mark Antony (who had the Egyptian queen Cleopatra, mother of Caesar's son, on his side). In the end, Octavian defeated both Mark Antony and Cleopatra, thus becoming emperor after clearing his obstacles.
