Early Roman Empire is age 32 on the Idle Ages ladder, set in 27 BCE. You unlock it with coins the ages below it earned. From there it produces on its own cycle, with its own upgrade costs and its own four heroes.

Augustus raises every age you own at once. The other three raise this one. All four carry a piece of written history that unlocks as you level them.
Legendary
Augustus emerged from the civil wars as the first Roman emperor, taking his famous title in 27 BCE. He kept the outward forms of the Republic while concentrating power in his own hands, beginning a new imperial age.
Raises output in every age you own, and most of all in their own. Every level doubles what they add.
Epic
Nero became emperor in 54 CE and cultivated a passion for music and performance. His reign included the great fire of Rome and ambitious rebuilding, but revolt ended his rule in 68 CE; hostile ancient accounts still shape his reputation.
Raises the output and production speed of their own age. Every level doubles what they add.
Rare
Agrippina the Younger was the wife of Emperor Claudius and mother of Nero. Her influence helped bring her son to the throne, and early coins showed their portraits together before their alliance gave way to a bitter struggle for power.
Raises the production speed of their own age. Every level doubles what they add.
Common Manager, level 5
Livia Drusilla stood at the center of the imperial family as the wife of Augustus and mother of Tiberius. Her portraits projected dignity and continuity, and she retained enormous prestige after Augustus died in 14 CE.
Raises the output of their own age. Every level multiplies what they add by 1.6. Levelling Livia to 5 is what automates Early Roman Empire.
