He was against couples that were children, and for the first time under his rule adultery became a public offence. He was a patrician, as he was adopted by caesar. He was not allowed to have any kind of magistracy that was meant for plebeians. Only after julius caesar imperium romanum began to mean roman empire. Rome was based on the ideas of many men, not just one, and it was set up across many centuries and generations, not in the life-time of one man.
