Under the reign of Octavian/Augustus (historians use Augustus, an honorary title he was given, for the period when he was emperor) a major process of expansion.
Augustus completed the conquest of Spain. He expanded the border of Libya and Tunisia inland. He annexed the easternpart of the coast of Algeria the coast of Morocco on the Atlantic down to Agadir. He annexed two client states: Galatia and Judaea. He annexed Moesia (an area along the Danube which included southern Serbia, northern Macedonia and Bulgaria and the part of Romania across the Danube) after the Scythians attacked a Roman ally. In 16 BC Noricum was annexed following an attack into northeaster Italy by the Pannonians which the people of Noricum joined. They were defeated by the governor of Illyrimucum. In 6 AD Augustus annexed Pannonia (eastern Austria, western Hungary, part of Slovenia and northern Croatia and Serbia) after its people joined the next door Desitiates in the Great Illyrian Revolt which was suppressed by the generals Tiberius and Germanicus. In 13 BC his general Drusus pushed deep into Germany following attacks into northern Gaul. However, in 9 AD thee Roman legions were routed and Augustus decided to abandon the recent conquests and withdraw the frontier of the empire back to the river Rhine.

∙ 9y agoHadrian did not expand the Roman Empire. He actually gave Mesopotamia (Iraq) back to the Persians. His predecessor, Trajan, had conquered it from them. Hadrian did so both because he pursued a policy of peace and because he thought that retaining Mesopotamia was untenable.
