     The two decades of Trajan's reign were filled with military
     conquests and glory. The emperor made no secret of his ambition
     to emulate the great conquerors of the past, Julius Caesar and
     Alexander the Great. In later times the period of his rule was
     looked back upon as a golden age, the mid-3rd century emperor
     Decius even assuming the name of Trajan on his accession in the
     vain hope of reviving past glories at a time of crisis. For the
     last time in her history Rome added to her empire by military
     conquest. The kingdom of Dacia, north of the Danube, was annexed
     as a province in 106 following the defeat and death of King
     Decebalus. This achievement was commemorated by the famous Column
     of Trajan erected in his new Forum. The territories north of the
     Danube were eventually abandoned by Aurelian in 270 AD following
     the great Gothic invasions of the mid-3rd century.
