Su obra, que abarca desde las leyendas más antiguas hasta el reinado de Augusto, es renombrada por su inmenso alcance y narrativa detallada. Livio tenía relación con la dinastía Julio-Claudia, llegando a aconsejar al joven Claudio en sus aspiraciones históricas. Sus escritos ofrecen una ventana sin precedentes a la formación de la identidad romana y su lugar en el mundo.
