Roman conquest


Hello and welcome to a new history lesson!
Becouse today I am busy, I will present only the Roman conquest, Roman rule following that talk about the next world. I think that you’ll be ok with this, because after all it's less to read. Here we go.
From 85 up to 89, the Dacians led wars against the Romans under the leadership of Duras and then Decebal. After two changes of situation, the Romans, led by Tettius Iullianus had a slight advantage, but will have to make peace because of the defeat of Domitian by Marcomans (Germanic tribe). Meanwhile, Decebal rebuilt army and Domitian is forced to accept pay an annual tribute to the Dacians. Thus Rome for over a decade paid tribute to Dacia.
Trajan initiated an extensive campaign against the Dacians after becoming emperor, a campaign known as the Dacian wars, wars that will require the use of a number thirds of the whole army of the Roman Empire. Result of the first campaign (101-102) was attacking the Dacian capital, Sarmizegetuza and occupation of part of the country. The Dacian War (105-106) ended in defeat and suicide Decebal his kingdom was conquered and transformed Romanian province of Dacia. After defeating the Dacians, Trajan in Rome organized the largest and most expensive ceremony, which lasted about 123 days, the amount of gold and silver plundered from Dacia by the Romans being appreciated by ancient chroniclers as fabulous. Tens of thousands of Dacians were taken into slavery in Rome, tens of thousands of Dacia Dacians fled to avoid slavery.
Details war were reported by Dio Cassius, but the best comment is famous Trajan's Column in Rome built.
I apologize again for those who wished to learn more on this day, but that's it.
God bless you!
