[106] It is noteworthy that an embassy from Dio's city of Prusa was not favourably received by Trajan,[107] and that this had to do with Dio's chief objective, which was to elevate Prusa to the status of a free city, an "independent" city-state exempt from paying taxes to Rome. [275] Hadrian, who was eventually entrusted with the governorship of Syria at the time of Trajan's death, was Trajan's cousin and was married to Trajan's grandniece, which all made him as good as heir designate.

[156] Decebalus fled but, when later cornered by Roman cavalry, committed suicide.

The Parthica, a 17-volume account of the Parthian Wars written by Arrian, has met a similar fate. [53][54] One of the most significant trends of his reign was his encroachment on the Senate's sphere of authority, such as his decision to make the senatorial provinces of Achaea and Bithynia into imperial ones in order to deal with the inordinate spending on public works by local magnates[55] and the general mismanagement of provincial affairs by various proconsuls appointed by the Senate.

[246] Trajan sent two armies towards Northern Mesopotamia: the first, under Lusius Quietus, recovered Nisibis and Edessa from the rebels, probably having King Abgarus deposed and killed in the process,[246] with Quietus probably earning the right to receive the honors of a senator of praetorian rank (adlectus inter praetorios). [165] The main regional effort of urbanization was concentrated by Trajan at the rearguard, in Moesia, where he created the new cities of Nicopolis ad Istrum and Marcianopolis. 1 of 2 Go to page. [200] As far as territorial conquest involved tax-collecting,[201] especially of the 25% tax levied on all goods entering the Roman Empire, the tetarte, one can say that Trajan's Parthian War had an "economic" motive. [68] Trajan ingratiated himself with the Greek intellectual elite by recalling to Rome many (including Dio) who had been exiled by Domitian,[69] and by returning (in a process begun by Nerva) a great deal of private property that Domitian had confiscated. [170] Even in the absence of further Roman expansion, the value of the province depended on Roman overall strength: while Rome was strong, the Dacian salient was an instrument of military and diplomatic control over the Danubian lands; when Rome was weak, as during the Crisis of the Third Century, the province became a liability and was eventually abandoned. [67] Dio's notion of being "friend" to Trajan (or any other Roman emperor), however, was that of an informal arrangement, that involved no formal entry of such "friends" into the Roman administration.
