Province, 117 CE
Dalmatia
Imperial province, praetorian legateCapital: SalonaRoman since 9 CE
The Adriatic's eastern coast, conquered in stages that finished only with Tiberius's brutal three-year suppression of the Great Illyrian Revolt (6–9 CE) — the hardest war Augustus ever fought, by his own account. By 117 the province was fully pacified and demilitarized, its legions long since reassigned to the Danube frontier.
Conquest completed in 9 CE after Tiberius's three-year suppression of the Great Illyrian Revolt (6–9 CE), which Augustus called the hardest war he ever fought.
