In our timeline, the Pax Romana lasted from 27 BC to 180 AD (or 225, take your pick), from the Ascension of Augustus to the death of Marcus Aurelius. This was the peak of Roman power and influence and lasted until the turmoil filled Crisis of the Third Century.

Your challenge is (with a POD of lets say, the Battle of Actium in 31 BC) to keep that initial period of relative peace and prosperity going until 300 AD, at which point have fun coming up with ways to crush, dismember, maim, bankrupt or otherwise screw with the Roman Empire.
