[Solved] London was first founded under what Roman emperor?

Trivia: London was first founded under what Roman emperor?

Augustus
Claudius
Tiberius
Caligula

The correct answer is Claudius

So why is this answer correct? : Under Emperor Claudius in 43 CE, Roman armies began their occupation of Britain and thereafter founded a settlement known as Londinium. Though the settlement was sacked in 60 CE by Queen Boudicca and the ancient Iceni people, it was rebuilt into a thriving trade center. The Romans abandoned the region in the fifth century, allowing it to ultimately fall into Saxon hands.
