The steps he took between 31 and 27 included holding the consulship several years in succession, accepting a number of honors and prerogatives from the state, and demobilizing the legions significantly after celebrating his triple-triumph in 29 (i.e., signs of return to normalcy).

We are EITHER twenty-five years after the assassination of Gaius Julius Caesar (19 BCE), making Octavian 44 years old, bearing the title "Augustus" for 8 years, and married to Livia for 19 years.
So, if we DO say, however, that Eve is Livia, her marriage to Octavian would have taken place in 38 BCE, SEVEN years before she is born (if you go by 31 BCE as the year Eve was born).
