الامتيازات الممنوحة من مجلس الشيوخ للأباطرة الرومان من 27 ق. م-96 م

Abstract EN

The most important function of the Senate was to grant the Emperor the legitimacy of his throne on the throne of the Empire, but it must be recognized that this function was a formality because we find that the Emperor either was appointed by his predecessor or that he took power by military power and therefore the question of the Council debate the issue of the Emperor The new recognition is a question of formality rather than real, There were some changes in the Senate as the regime in Rome changed from Republican to Imperial, but it was a gradual change.

Members of the Council were aware of and understood this change because they believed that a return to republican practices would eventually lead to unrest and that made change acceptable The most important manifestation of this change was the marginalization of the role of the Council in foreign policy or military affairs, and its role was limited to granting the Emperor a lot of honorary titles and official receptions on many occasions, and issued his decisions to erect statues as a kind of honor, As a kind of concessions to the Emperor and his family members.
