From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Caesar
      the title assumed by the Roman emperors after Julius Caesar. In
      the New Testament this title is given to various emperors as
      sovereigns of Judaea without their accompanying distinctive
      proper names (John 19:15; Acts 17:7). The Jews paid tribute to
      Caesar (Matt. 22:17), and all Roman citizens had the right of
      appeal to him (Acts 25:11). The Caesars referred to in the New
      Testament are Augustus (Luke 2:1), Tiberius (3:1; 20:22),
      Claudius (Acts 11:28), and Nero (Acts 25:8; Phil. 4:22).
