Dear Steemians,

. . .

On the occasion of the triumphal entrance of the Constantine the Great in Rome, the people

"Gathered around the dragons, bound with the golden peaks and locked in the shining spears of the spears, swollen by a great wind and sowing as angry, letting the long tails wit," says Ammianus Marcelinus, in the Rerum gestarum.

Ammianus Marcellinus was a Roman general of Greek origin and a great Latin historian (born in 332 in Antioch and died in 395 in Rome).
The Dacian Dracon had been in the Roman army for many years. The military units of Geto-Dacians were normal at that time in the empire's armies.

The Arch of Triumph erected by Emperor Constantine the Great in Rome (in the 4th century AD) has 8 statues of noble Dacians in very dignified positions.
This shows the importance of the Geto-Dacians at the time of the Roman Empire.

The Emperor before Constantine the Great was Emperor GALERIUS, a Emperor of Geto-Dacian origin.
GALERIUS even wanted to change the name of the empire, from the Roman Empire to ... Dacian Empire (says the spiritual counselor of Constantine the Great, Lactantius in the work "De mortibus persecutorum").
Emperor Galerius managed an important victory against the Persians, relying mainly on the Geto-Dacian military troops.
It is clear to us today that the Arch of Triumph was raised by Galerius to Thessalonica in Greece.
