Dacian Wars refers to punitive expeditions (2) or wars of conquest (2) by the Roman Empire along its Danube River frontier against the north bank kingdom of Dacia and the Dacian king Decebalus, and the non-specific name will mean one of either:
- Trajan's Dacian Wars--The two campaigns of conquest ordered or led by the Emperor Trajan in 101-102 AD, and 105-106 AD from Moesia across the Danube north into Dacia. Trajan's forces were successful in both cases, reducing Dacia to client state status in the first, and taking the territory over in the second.
