		Lusitania and Tarraconensis he kept for himself, knowing that wars were inevitable there, while in the south, Baetica was ceded to the Senate, largely because of the territory's reputation for harmony.
		Tarraconensis was the most important of the three provinces in Spain by several standards, for it controlled not only the Pyrenees leading to Gallia Aquitania (Gallia) but also watched over the tribes of the Cantabri and the Astures.
		Tarraconensis originally had three legions, but Vespasian found little use for such a waste of good troops and moved two out of the province, a decision reflecting the extent of pacification and the degree of Romanization that had been accomplished.

		Hispania was the name given by the Romans to the whole of the Iberian Peninsula (modern Portugal, Spain, Andorra and Gibraltar) and to two provinces created there in the period of the Roman Republic: Hispania Citerior and Hispania Ulterior.
		In the third century, under the Soldier Emperors, Hispania Nova (the northwestern corner of Spain) was split off from Tarraconensis, as a small province but the home of the only permanent legion is Hispania, Legio VII Gemina.
		Beginning with Diocletian's Tetrarchy reform in AD 293, Hispaniae ('the Spains') became the name of one of the four dioceses—governed by a vicarius—of the prÃ¦torian prefecture Galliae ('the Gauls', also comprising the provinces of Gaul, Germania and Britannia), after the abolition of the imperial Tetrarchs under the Western Emperor (in Rome itself, later Ravenna).

		Romans scored other victories with proconsul Decimus Junius Brutus and Marius (113 BC), but still the Lusitani resisted with a long guerrilla war; they later joined Sertorius' troops and were finally exterminated by Augustus.
		With Lusitania (and Asturia and Gallaecia), Rome had completed the conquest of the Iberian peninsula, which was then divided by Augustus (25-20 BC) into the eastern and northern Hispania Tarraconensis, the southwestern Hispania Baetica and the western Provincia Lusitana.
		Originally Lusitania included the territories of Asturia and Gallaecia, but these were later ceded to the jurisdiction of the new Provincia Tarraconensis and the former remained as Provincia Lusitania et Vettones.
