Caesar Augustus is granted the title pater patriae by the Roman Senate.

Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus, also known as Octavian, was the founder of the Roman Empire, who reigned as the first Roman emperor from 27 BC until his death in AD 14. The reign of Augustus initiated an imperial cult and an era of imperial peace in which the Roman world was largely free of armed conflict. The Principate system of government was established during his reign and lasted until the Crisis of the Third Century.

Pater Patriae was an honorific title in ancient Rome. In Latin, it means "father of the country", or more literally, "father of the fatherland".

The Roman Senate was the highest and constituting assembly of ancient Rome and its aristocracy. With different powers throughout its existence, it lasted from the first days of the city of Rome as the Senate of the Roman Kingdom, to the Senate of the Roman Republic and Senate of the Roman Empire and eventually the Byzantine Senate of the Eastern Roman Empire, existing well into the post-classical era and Middle Ages.

February 5 is the 36th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar; 329 days remain until the end of the year.
