Question 22

Why was Lepidus stripped of his triumviral power in 36 BCE?

  1. He was executed for treason after the Battle of Actium
  2. His legions defected to Octavian after Lepidus tried to seize Sicily for himselfBonne réponse
  3. He voluntarily retired to devote himself entirely to religious duties
  4. The Senate voted to abolish the triumvirate before its term expired

Explication

When Lepidus tried to claim Sicily and challenge Octavian's authority there in 36 BCE, his own soldiers abandoned him for Octavian, leaving him powerless and stripped of his triumviral rank. He was not executed, his retirement was not voluntary, and the Senate did not independently dissolve the triumvirate at that point.
