Trajan's father was

Trajan's father was consul under Vespasian, a commander in the Jewish war, and governor of Syria. The Emperor Trajan had been a military tribune in the Syrian army and commanded the legion in Tarraconensis (Spain) that responded to Domitian's request when Saturninus rebelled. Nerva appointed Trajan governor of Upper Germany and then adopted him. Trajan enlarged the Roman army to thirty legions and fought two big wars in Dacia from 101 to 106, commanding twelve legions with 120,000 men. After the first war Romans garrisoned Dacia. When Decebalus broke the treaty, Trajan had a bridge built across the Danube and captured the Dacian capital at Sarmizegethusa, causing their king Decebalus to commit suicide. Dacia lost most of its men, and as a Roman province it was settled by people from the Roman empire.
