Abstract or Introduction
This paper offers an argument intending to resolve the crucial question of why Octavian Caesar managed to politically and militarily overcome his rival Mark Antony despite possessing lesser initial resources of manpower and wealth.
The argument particularly analyzes Caesar's masterful utilization of propaganda in order to win the support of the Roman Senate as well as Antony's lack of experience in naval warfare relative to the commanders under Octavian's direction.
