  Dacia
A kingdom of Dacia was in existence at least as early as the beginning of the 2nd century BC under a king Oroles[?].
The tres Daciae formed a commune in so far that they had a common capital, Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa, and a common diet, which discussed provincial affairs, formulated complaints and adjusted the incidence of taxation; but in other respects they were practically independent provinces, each under an ordinary procurator, subordinate to a governor of consular rank.
This was subsequently divided into Dacia Ripensis[?] on the Danube, with capital Ratiaria[?] (Arcar[?] in Bosnia-Herzegovina), and Dacia Mediterranea[?], with capital Sardica[?] (Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria), the latter again being subdivided into Dardania and Dacia Mediterranea.

In 129 Hadrian divided Dacia into Dacia Superior and Dacia Inferior - the former comprising Transylvania and the latter Little Walachia or Oltenia.

He drove them out of Moesia across the Danube, where he left them in possession of Dacia, which he did not think himself able to retain; the name was transferred to Moesia, which was then called Dacia Aureliani.
The chronology, how-ever, of Aurelian's reign is very confused, and the abandonment of Dacia is placed by some authorities towards its close.
He next entered upon campaigns against the Juthungi, Alamanni, and other Germanic tribes, over whom, after a severe defeat which was said to have imperilled the very existence of the empire, he at length obtained a complete victory.

Dacia, however would not remain long within Roman control and the pressure would once again fall to Moesia.
At this point the province was renamed Dacia Aureliani to reflect this, and was again divided between upper and lower territories.
The Goths, who were the major source of conflict for the Romans in the area, crossed the Danube, for the countless and final time, under their King Fritigern in 376 AD, under pressure from the Huns themselves.

In 451, Attila the Hun made an attempt to capture and sack the city, only to be driven off by the last-minute arrival of an army under the combined command of Theodorid, pawn of the Visigoths, and the Roman general Aëtius.
Settled in Dacia, the Visigoths adopted Arianism, a branch of Christianity that believed that Jesus was not an aspect of God in the Trinity, but a separate being created directly beneath God.
They remained in Dacia until 376, when one of their two leaders, Fritigern, appealed to the Roman emperor Valens to be allowed to settle with his people on the south bank of the Danube.

In 270, Aurelian evacuated the province of Dacia because of intense pressure from the Carpi and the Goths.
With the survivors, he produced the province of Dacia Ripensis (also Dacia Aureliani), principally at the expense of Moesia Superior.
As part of Emperor Aurelian's plans for resettling the inhabitants of Roman Dacia in 270, slices of Moesia and Thrace were used to establish Dacia Mediterranea, with its capital at Serdica.

By the 5th century BC, the Thracian presence was pervasive enough to have made Herodotus (book 5) call them the second-most numerous people in the known world (after the Indians), and potentially the most powerful, if not for their disunity.
The Thracians in classical times were broken up into a large number of groups and tribes, though a number of powerful Thracian states were organized, such as the Odrysian kingdom of Thrace and the Dacia of Burebista.
- Burebista was a king of Dacia between 70 BC-44 BC who united under his rule Thracians in a large territory, from today's Moravia in the West, to the Bug river (Ukraine) in the East, and from Northern Carpathians to Southern Dionysopolis.

Plainly it was a direct judgment of God that he should be burned with fire by the very men whom he had perfidiously led astray when they sought the true faith, turning them aside from the flame of love into the fire of hell.
Hastening back by a different way than before, he decided to reduce to his sway that part of the Alani which was settled across the river Loire, in order that by attacking them, and thus changing the aspect of the war, he might become a more terrible menace to the Visigoths.
Accordingly he started from the provinces of Dacia and Pannonia, where the Huns were then dwelling with various subject peoples, and moved his array against the Alani.

DACIA, in antiquity, the area of the Carpathian Mountains and Transylvania, in present north-central and western Romania.
The new province was divided under Hadrian: Dacia Superior corresponded roughly to Transylvania and Dacia Inferior to the region of Wallachia.
In AD 159 Antoninus Pius redivided the region into three provinces, the Tres Daciae (Dacia Porolissensis, Dacia Apulensis, and Dacia Malvensis), all subordinate to one governor of consular rank.

Moreover, from the love they bore them, they preached the gospel both to the Ostrogoths and to their kinsmen the Gepidae, teaching them to reverence this heresy, and they invited all people of their speech everywhere to attach themselves to this sect.
But before we set forth the order of the battle itself, it seems needful to relate what had already happened in the course of the campaign, for it was not only a famous struggle but one that was complicated and confused.

This was one of the two dioceses in the eastern quarters of the tetrarchy not belonging to the cultural Greek half of the empire (the other was Dacia), and was transferred to the western empire in 395.
Inhabitants evacuated from the abandoned province were settled on the south side of the Danube and their new homeland renamed Dacia accordingly.
The diocese was transferred to the western empire in 384 by Theodosius I, probably in partial compensation to the empress Justina for his recognition of the usurpation of Magnus Maximus in Britannia, Gaul and Hispania.

In 442 a truce was agreed upon, but as Theodosius refused to hand over to Attila the fugitives demanded by him, in the following year the war was renewed.
By occupying Ratiaria (Anzar Palanka), capital of the province of Dacia Ripensis and the base of the Roman fleet on the Danube, Attila secured his rear and then advanced up the valley of the Margus (Morava) and destroyed Naissus.
His first objective was probably the lands of the Ripuarian Franks, and his next Orleans, for located as it is at the apex of the great bend in the river Loire, once in his hands he could sweep into Gothia (Aquitania).
