Conflicts
between
the
Thracian
tribes,
such as
the
Odrysians
in the
eastern
plains and
the Bessi
in the
mountainous west, were drawing Rome into their conflicts and in 46AD Thrace was annexed into the Roman Empire.
The reunification of Dacian tribes under Decebal and a couple defeats of the Roman armies led to war in 101AD.
