Rome

Emperor Trajan, born Marcus Ulpius Traianus in 53 AD, was a Roman Emperor who ruled from 98 AD until his death in 117 AD. Trajan is known for his successful military campaigns, particularly his conquest of Dacia (modern-day Romania) and his expansion of the Roman Empire to its greatest territorial extent. Under his leadership, Rome experienced a period of prosperity, marked by public works projects and increased social welfare. Trajan was also known for his civic-mindedness, with the construction of numerous public buildings and charitable institutions. His legacy was honored by the Roman Senate, which declared him optimus princeps, or "the best ruler."
