Summary/Abstract: Which God sanctified power? In the Roman Empire in 1 BC, during the transition of power, there was a question of legitimization comprehensive victory winner. That was an interesting phenomenon, when generals and statesmen addressed primarily the cult of Dionysus. These figures could be the Romans, but primarily embodied the opposite side of the conflict. Why is this God or only this God? Analysis of complex sources shows that depending on the circumstances, politicians have used the help of many gods. And the attitude to this practice was formed by both situation and propaganda.
