Instead of using politics which divided people for or against Caesar, Augustus used the buildings to strengthen the monarchy. For example, he built the Altar of Peace to remember the peace he brought to Rome, and by give Caesar a temple, which was making him like a God. This meant that Augustus also had this status. All these treasure, strengthened Rome as a great city and Augustus avoided being murdered like Caesar. These things made Augustus a more important leader.
