Emperor Tiberius (42 BCE – 37 CE), born Tiberius Claudius Nero, was the second emperor of Rome, ruling from 14 to 37 CE. He was the stepson of Augustus, the empire’s first emperor, and belonged to the distinguished Claudian family. Initially reluctant to embrace public life, Tiberius was a skilled military commander and diplomat, leading successful campaigns in Germania and the Balkans. His relationship with Augustus was complex, marked by periods of tension, yet Augustus eventually adopted Tiberius, securing him as heir.

As emperor, Tiberius continued Augustus' policies, maintaining stability and consolidating the empire’s borders. However, as his reign progressed he became increasingly reclusive and distrustful, especially after the death of his son Drusus. Tiberius withdrew from public life, and governed remotely from the island of Capri. His later years were marred by allegations of cruelty and corruption, particularly involving his chief advisor, Sejanus, who wielded immense power and orchestrated purges of Tiberius' political enemies.

Tiberius died in 37 CE under suspicious circumstances, leaving behind a mixed legacy. He is often remembered as a capable but enigmatic ruler whose later years cast a shadow over his accomplishments.
