He was aedile in 22 British Columbia and consul in 16 British Columbia. After his consulship, he served as governor of Africa from 13/12 British Columbia. He was later probably the successor of Tiberius in Germania, where he commanded the Roman army and crossed the Elbe, during which he set up an altar to Augustus, and penetrated further into the country than any of his predecessors had done.
He also built a walkway, called the pontes longi, over the marshes between the Rhine River and the Ems River. He died in 25. Suetonius described him as "arrogant, cruel, notorious and extravagant," and records numerous instances of his disrespect, to censor Lucius Munatius Plancus, to a proconsul of Africa, to a legate of Illyricum.
He exhibited shows of wild beasts in every quarter of the city, and his gladiatorial combats were conducted with such excessive bloodshed that Augustus was obliged to put some restraint upon them. He had three children with Antonia Major: Domitia Lepida the Elder, born ca.
