@History Time, thank you, this was a great video and a subject that is hardly ever brought up let alone discussed with objective facts. The mudding of Romania's history is a great pain for me, I deeply wish I could know more about the time before roughly 1000 AD but sources are so rare and as you pointed out too, the Dacians were not much for writing things down. The one thing I would like to ask is, to my knowledge Rome also had a strong financial motivation to invade Dacia as well. The Roman gold mines in Transylvania supposedly rejuvenated Rome near single-handedly. The one at Rosia Montana is actually not even exhausted and the original Roman galleries and tunnels are still up today. Are you aware of this being accurate or might it be propaganda?

I have read that Ancient Dacia was the primary source of gold for the ancient "Mediterranean" world. I also saw a history video that indicated the area(s) Dacia once occupied are still loaded with gold. Pretty sure it's one of the reasons the Romans wanted to take it so much.

as Hispania was the biggest producer of silver in Europe, Dacia had the biggest gold reserves known to man in Europe at that time, and the Roman Empire, expanding a bit too quickly to really put enough currency into economy to stabilize it, saw the opportunity to take it's gold I'm not too sure about this, but some of the writers and chronicals at that time said that the plunder in gold and silver from Dacia was the greatest spoils of war that were recorded in the empire's history (although I wouldn't count on this, we all know that many of these writers were "overestimating"their nations achievements)

The Dacian kingdom represented a threat to the borders of Rome, Trajan moved 150,000 men, half of the imperial legions, for the invasion, just remember that eight years after the conquest of Dacia, Trajan defeated the the Parthian Empire with the same number of legions and conquered Ctesiphon. At that time Rome was at its highest military power.

Equal to Rome?? In no way... probably Dacia could muster an army of 50.000, not professional soldiers mind you. Probably as many allies which were not willing to fight all the way to the end. Trajan brought 150.000 and there were plenty of other troops left in the Empire. It's enough to look at the size of the opponents. But yeah, Dacia was a threat... an independent kingdom on the border of the Roman Empire??? That was unacceptable for them.

did you knew that before Trajan came to power, Romans were forced to pay tribute to Dacians just to pass near the Danube river?

He won a Victory in 88 A.D, Tapae. He couldn't capitalize on it (he could have) because there was an uprising of the legions against him in Germania. After that, he was forced to take of more revolts in Pannonia. His best choice was to agree with Decebalus on some compromise, the revolts in Pannonia would take up most of the rest of Domitian's rule.

Actually Romanians are not Dacians at all. They consider themselves more Romans than Dacians, and the name Romania comes from the name Rome. In their national anthem they sing about Trajan and Romans, nothing about Decebal or Dacians. The only one nation that could assign the Dacian ancestors are Moldavian because they were free Dacians after Rome conquered Dacia and there are not any argue that Dacians abandoned that territory.

Outstanding!!! I needed another Roman History fix. Well Done.

The treasure of the Dacian kings, at the time Decebal was finally defeated, is estimated at about 300 tons / 300,000 kilograms of gold. It was hidden in a river-bed. The flow of the river was temporarily diverted to bury the gold. Unfortunately a traitor disclosed the location to the Romans. Trajan inherited a bankrupt empire. The Dacian gold improved the finances so well, that the city of Rome could afford a spree of construction of new public buildings, among other things. The gold was obtained by mining inside Dacia. The mining was extended by the Romans, and has been continued to the present time. Before the re-discovery of America by Columbus, Transylvania was the most important source of gold for Europe.

It's enough to Latinising the people. But Dacia was only 160 years long occupied by Romans in bloody war. Not possible to Latinising local people in 160 years in war. 2. The Romans occupied only one 3rd of the Dacian lands, there were free Dacians too. Why would be Latinised the free Dacians? It's nonsense. And if 2/3 of the Dacians didn't Latinised so where they are? 3. The Roman army in Dacia provincia wasn't made up by Latin speakers, but they were mostly Syrians and Germans. Only few military generals spoke Latin language. How the Syrians Latinised the Dacians? 4. Even if there was some Latin speakers and they made children for the Dacian ladies, the babies why would they speak Latin then? The babies learn language always from their mothers and never from the soldier-fathers who already left or died. 5. How is possible that the Romanian language have similarities with the Albanian language if they did not lived together earlier? Don't tell me that the Albanians migrated from Transylvania to the West Balkan. 6. The medieval chronicles mentioned Vlachs it means Latin speakers. Also in Hungarian chronicles mentioned Volochi and Blachi for two different people. Volochi is Latin speaker, Blachi is the Bulaq people which is Karluk-Turkic folk came in Pannonia with the Huns and they still lived there till 9th century, side of the Szekelys which is Hungarian folk also remained Huns. 7. The first mention of the Romanians from 11th century from North-Greece, Albania and the region of Ochrid lake, where the Romanian related Aromans still living. It surely about the modern Romanians. 8. If the Romanian-Vlachs were mentioned in some documents from North of Danube just because of their shepherd lifestyle. They moved a lot everywhere in the Balkan peninsula but even till Northern Carpathians and they reached Silesia too (present time Poland). So if there are few mentions of Vlachs it doesn't mean that they lived in that regions only they travelled there. 9. During the Slavic invasion on the Balkans 6-7th century the whole Balkan Slavised for example the Hunnic Bulgars, or the Latin Dalmatians too. Only the people didn't who had no too much connection with the Slavs who didn't live in towns or villages. Exactly the Vlach shepherds, because of their nomadic lifestyle didn't Slavised, but the Romanian language has massive Slavic influence. In present Romania there weren't any Slavic invasion cause of the German-Gepids, Hunnic-Avars and other Hunnic-Hungarian people who lived there. 10. The Romanians are Latin speakers. Why they liked to use Cyrillic alphabet if they lived next to Hungary where the official language was the Latin and always used the Latin alphabet? Of course the Romanians came from central Balkan where the Cyrillic alphabet needed to be useful. 11. The Romanians are Orthodox, if they lived in Transylvania, why they liked to have Orthodox religion in the Roman Catholic Hungarian Kingdom? Of course the Romanians came from the Central Balkan where the Orthodox Church is the main religion so they wouldn't choose other. 12. If the Romanians are descendants of the Dacians, why they never called Transylvania as Dacia? Why they took the Latin name of Transylvania? Why they took the Hungarian name of Transylvania as Erdely to Ardeal (pronunciation is same).? 13. What it means the name of Transylvania? Trans = over, beyond Sylvania (Sylvanus) = forest What was called forest? The Bihar forest was called simply forest. So Transylvania means beyond the forest, beyond the Bihar forest. But wait, it's from the view of Budapest not Bucharest. It means the Hungarians gave the name to Transylvania. If the Romanians gove it would be called as Transcarpathia...... otherwise Ardeal does not have meaning in the Romanian language, but Erdely in Hungarian language came from Erdő (forest) Erdő-elve (beyond the forest....) 14. Why the Romanians have ethnic relatives in the Balkan? Aromans, Istroromans, Macedoromans and Megloromans 15. Okay the Romanians have no own chronicles, but doesn't exist any story, folk-song, or even children's tales about the Dacians from medieval times? Why the Daco-Roman continuity theory was created in 19th only? 16. If the Romanians are descendants of the Dacians, so what they did from the 3rd century to 13th century? What battles they fought? What towns they lived? Where are their churches or cemeteries? Where are the archaeological founds.? They were highly civilised no? Where are the buildings? Why the Romanians took the nsme of city (oras) from the Hungarian ''varos'' (pronunciation is the same)? 17. The Romanians were called Roumains, Rumanians, Rumanisch in other languages. But Rome in that languages is Rome and the empire is Roman empire not Ruman. The name of the Romanians came from Rum and Rumelia which is the Persian name of Byzantine empire and Turkish name of the Balkan. So Ruman means people from Rum. Roman means people from Rome. Ruman is the present time Romanians. Roman is the ancient Romans from Roman empire.

While you're at it it would be cool to see similar content on the pre-Turkic Indo-European people's of Anatolia.

I really appreciate how much you put into the research for this video and I know it wasn't easy to find images of dacian and daco-roman scenes. However, if I can make one suggestion concerning the editing is that you have to hold on images for a couple more seconds, especially if it's one that you're showing for the first time. Remember, in the editing phase you've already seen these pics dozens of times, but we the viewers have never seen them before and we need a moment to assimilate them. Otherwise good narration, good vid, keep up the good work!

Hello. Great way of telling it. I need to mention also some facts, dacian tribes were much larger than the teritory Traian took under his wing, only 15% of Dacia was conquered and for a verry little perioud compared to other regions in the world. Also, after the getae-dacian&tracian(exactly the same people) rebelled, many times in history Rome was sacked by them, for example Alaric I born in modern day Romania. Also to be mentioned Constantine The Great in memory of his dacian fellows built the largest statues in Rome with dacian figures. This means something:)

The dacian wars is so historically underrated.

Nice to hear that celtic music on the background.

A truly sad event for out history, unlike Burebista who fought against celts and other barbaric tribes, Decebal had to fight the "civilised" people and in the end he lost. And here we are today, idolizing Trajan like some kind of hero, in truth he just wanted our gold that was like a breath of fresh air for the whole empire

we know about dacians more but we hide it. Actually romanian is dacian. However romanians created a fake history to link themselves to rome in an attempt to seek help from the west during 1848 revolutions Indo-european analysis on the romanian language is very clear: “latin” words are not inherited from latin but come from “palasca” the substrate which gave latin and slavic and other languages. Thats why dacian/romanian is similar with latin and slavic but didnt have the historical conditions to adopt it because dacians/romanians basically assimilated everyone that came here to live. It is an analysis any linguist can make for you if you happen to know one. Problem is romanians are not ready to accept they are not the “sons” of rome, but their uncles or grandparents

I believe that Sarmatian/Scythian tradition and history is not to be underestimated, especially in military, in the conflict with the Romans. I grew up close to Ziridava and the castrum of the 13th legion, 'Gemina', that was frontier land. The legion there had recruited sarmatian cataphracts - and went to Britain with them... Dacian warriors often are shown with Scythian/Sarmatian-like gear.

After reading some of the comments I realised that Herodotus, Dio and others didn't know anything about History :)))

Two years passed, but I need to answer this. lol Some sources say that the woods were so thick that the Romans couldn't pass through them with their horses, so perhaps that is why they chose the gorge. It makes sense because to this day our woods, especially in the southern areas are formed of tall trees and tangled, tight thicket on the forest floor. You cannot lead a horse through that.

Ferbinte Gabriel: "brave, rich, dominant, strong and being romanian don't match.

In the king Burebista times the Dacia's teritory included actualy teritory of Romania but also Panonia plane (Hungary today), south of Ukraine, the teritory of Republic of Moldova. Herodot, the great historian said about Dacians: " Dacians are the best wariors and correct people from all the tribes of Tracians". And today Romanians are the grand, grand, grand Sons of Dacians and I'm produs because i was born in Romania. Greetings from Romania!!!

Brilliant video, well done. Just one tiny comment, which obviously doesn`t change the whole nature of the video, but i believe in the maps of the Dacian fortresses at 6:28 , Tamasidava & Piroboridava are incorrectly placed (I`d say even inverted). Could you help me with the source of the used map, please, would love to have a closer look?

Sarmizegetusa - read as SarmeeZehGEtoosah. Read "GE" as in GErmany. It was a fortress whose name is made of 2 names : Sarmi + Get = Sarmates + Getae, 2 people of those times who lived in the area.

I wish I was independently wealthy so I could visit every interesting historical landmark

Emperor Trajan crossed the Danube with 75000 legionaries and 80 000 auxilliaries, while Decebal had 200000 soldiers plus many thousands of Roxolany horsemen, It was a huge war

Interesting.

Good history lesson. The only criticism I have is that the poster didn't spend any time on the end of the reign of Nerva and the accession of Trajan and the circumstances which does involve Decebalus and the Treaty in question which also played a part in the events that lead up to the Dacian Wars. But Still, a good history lesson for those into european history back in the day.

Respect

your need to do a video about the old wolf,Illyria

A few corrections: decebal's real name was Diurpaneu. He got the nickname of Decebal after the war in 87, where he was leading the troops as a general. Decebal means: strong as 10. He was very brave and very strong and skillful in combat and warfare, which led him to him being proclaimed as king after. Also, we know that he was the son of Scorillo(former king of Dacia), as the latest archeological proof shows us, items on which were written: Decebalus per Scorillo, which translates to: Decebal, the son of Scorillo. And yes, Duras was Diurpaneu's uncle.

there's so much more to this, it barely scratched the surface. and when i say scratch, i mean gently touched with a feather.

The legion in Trajan's reign was in peak of fighting and functional efficience,centuries of warfare developed into this.

102 and 105 wars were prepared by the empire since its king was cezar.they needed roman born mountain warriors from spain and galia to be able to take on the dacians.they had to wait for a loial generation to be born before they could do that.took them around 130 years.the most gold they ever took from anywhere.romania

the Balkan homeland of the Romanians: 1. Illyria was under Roman rule in 600 years long, just like Hipania or Gallia. It's enough to Latinising the people. But Dacia was only 160 years long occupied by Romans in bloody war. Not possible to Latinising local people in 160 years in war. 2. The Romans occupied only one 3rd of the Dacian lands, there were free Dacians too. Why would be Latinised the free Dacians? It's nonsense. And if 2/3 of the Dacians didn't Latinised so where they are? 3. The Roman army in Dacia provincia wasn't made up by Latin speakers, but they were mostly Syrians and Germans. Only few military generals spoke Latin language. How the Syrians Latinised the Dacians? 4. Even if there was some Latin speakers and they made children for the Dacian ladies, the babies why would they speak Latin then? The babies learn language always from their mothers and never from the soldier-fathers who already left or died. 5. How is possible that the Romanian language have similarities with the Albanian language if they did not lived together earlier? Don't tell me that the Albanians migrated from Transylvania to the West Balkan. 6. The medieval chronicles mentioned Vlachs it means Latin speakers. Also in Hungarian chronicles mentioned Volochi and Blachi for two different people. Volochi is Latin speaker, Blachi is the Bulaq people which is Karluk-Turkic folk came in Pannonia with the Huns and they still lived there till 9th century, side of the Szekelys which is Hungarian folk also remained Huns. 7. The first mention of the Romanians from 11th century from North-Greece, Albania and the region of Ochrid lake, where the Romanian related Aromans still living. It surely about the modern Romanians. 8. If the Romanian-Vlachs were mentioned in some documents from North of Danube just because of their shepherd lifestyle. They moved a lot everywhere in the Balkan peninsula but even till Northern Carpathians and they reached Silesia too (present time Poland). So if there are few mentions of Vlachs it doesn't mean that they lived in that regions only they travelled there. 9. During the Slavic invasion on the Balkans 6-7th century the whole Balkan Slavised for example the Hunnic Bulgars, or the Latin Dalmatians too. Only the people didn't who had no too much connection with the Slavs who didn't live in towns or villages. Exactly the Vlach shepherds, because of their nomadic lifestyle didn't Slavised, but the Romanian language has massive Slavic influence. In present Romania there weren't any Slavic invasion cause of the German-Gepids, Hunnic-Avars and other Hunnic-Hungarian people who lived there. 10. The Romanians are Latin speakers. Why they liked to use Cyrillic alphabet if they lived next to Hungary where the official language was the Latin and always used the Latin alphabet? Of course the Romanians came from central Balkan where the Cyrillic alphabet needed to be useful. 11. The Romanians are Orthodox, if they lived in Transylvania, why they liked to have Orthodox religion in the Roman Catholic Hungarian Kingdom? Of course the Romanians came from the Central Balkan where the Orthodox Church is the main religion so they wouldn't choose other. 12. If the Romanians are descendants of the Dacians, why they never called Transylvania as Dacia? Why they took the Latin name of Transylvania? Why they took the Hungarian name of Transylvania as Erdely to Ardeal (pronunciation is same).? 13. What it means the name of Transylvania? Trans = over, beyond Sylvania (Sylvanus) = forest What was called forest? The Bihar forest was called simply forest. So Transylvania means beyond the forest, beyond the Bihar forest. But wait, it's from the view of Budapest not Bucharest. It means the Hungarians gave the name to Transylvania. If the Romanians gove it would be called as Transcarpathia...... otherwise Ardeal does not have meaning in the Romanian language, but Erdely in Hungarian language came from Erdő (forest) Erdő-elve (beyond the forest....) 14. Why the Romanians have ethnic relatives in the Balkan? Aromans, Istroromans, Macedoromans and Megloromans 15. Okay the Romanians have no own chronicles, but doesn't exist any story, folk-song, or even children's tales about the Dacians from medieval times? Why the Daco-Roman continuity theory was created in 19th only? 16. If the Romanians are descendants of the Dacians, so what they did from the 3rd century to 13th century? What battles they fought? What towns they lived? Where are their churches or cemeteries? Where are the archaeological founds.? They were highly civilised no? Where are the buildings? Why the Romanians took the nsme of city (oras) from the Hungarian ''varos'' (pronunciation is the same)? 17. The Romanians were called Roumains, Rumanians, Rumanisch in other languages. But Rome in that languages is Rome and the empire is Roman empire not Ruman. The name of the Romanians came from Rum and Rumelia which is the Persian name of Byzantine empire and Turkish name of the Balkan. So Ruman means people from Rum. Roman means people from Rome. Ruman is the present time Romanians. Roman is the ancient Romans from Roman empire.

At min 4 it s Burebista who became king after Duras, not Decebal

What a tome that must've been

Rome actually had around 70,000 soldiers to the Dacians 40,000 in the first war (101) the Romans had about 40,000 porters who didn't actually fight. In the second war (105) Rome had 80,000 and 70,000 porters while Dacia had about 60,000. Usually when Rome fought barbarians they were outnumbered since they were stretched thin but the Dacian war was an exception.
