Decebalus

Decebalus was a prominent Dacian king who ruled in the late 1st century AD, known for resisting the Roman Empire’s expansion into his territories. Located in what is now Romania, he led his people in battles to defend their independence against powerful Roman armies. Despite his efforts and some temporary victories, the Romans eventually overpowered him, and Dacia was incorporated into the Roman Empire. Decebalus is remembered as a symbol of national resistance and valor, and his legacy is celebrated in Romanian history and culture.
