Valenians

The Valenians were a group of people who inhabited the region of Valen in the Roman province of Dacia. The exact location of Valen is uncertain, but it is believed to have been situated in the area of present-day Romania. The Valenians were a Dacian tribe, a group of Indo-European people who inhabited the region of Dacia, which is now part of Romania, Bulgaria, and Moldova.

The Valenians are first mentioned in the writings of the Roman historian Tacitus, who described them as a tribe that lived in the mountains of Dacia. Tacitus also noted that the Valenians were known for their fierce resistance to Roman rule, and that they were one of the tribes that participated in the Dacian Wars, a series of conflicts between the Roman Empire and the Dacian tribes that took place between 101 and 106 AD.

The Valenians are also mentioned in the writings of the Roman historian Cassius Dio, who described them as a tribe that lived in the mountains of Dacia and that was known for its fierce resistance to Roman rule. Cassius Dio also noted that the Valenians were one of the tribes that participated in the Dacian Wars, and that they were defeated by the Roman army under the command of the Roman emperor Trajan.

The Valenians are not mentioned in any other historical sources, and their exact location and history remain uncertain. However, they are an important part of the history of Dacia and the Dacian Wars, and their resistance to Roman rule is a testament to the strength and resilience of the Dacian tribes.
