# Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa is founded as a colonial city in conquered Dacia Date: 108 ## The fact Romanian and UNESCO-adjacent publication of Sarmizegetusa Regia’s wider landscape and of Ulpia Traiana prints a Trajanic colonial city. Urban implantation is both displacement (other row) and a built public grid. It is one event. ## Context This stores the later public site as industrial urbanism, not a unique happiness series. Trajan Shared work with other named actors remains in the record. [Trajan](/people/trajan)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death. Conventional reign is 98–117 CE. Dated public instruments here are later inscriptions as published, Pliny as Loeb/Perseus, Dio as LacusCurtius, and museum or UNESCO pages. Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers are the surviving public file. ## Evidence and sources UNESCO — Dacian Fortresses of the Orastie Mountains and Romanian cultural documentation of Dacian war landscapes as later told independently describe this instrument. Official or archival record: UNESCO — Dacian Fortresses of the Orastie Mountains (https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/598/; UNESCO World Heritage Centre). ## Significance A heritage city is not a 108 CE founding charter in this date field. ## What is established and what is not Established as a dated public record of this instrument. What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions. What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions. The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit. Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Trajan. They are not a public rating. The driver `industrial-policy-activism` is attached because the mechanism named in Significance follows from this instrument, not because a standing list of welfare headings needed another tick. Trajan did not file a later UNESCO form, a later Loeb colophon, or a later museum label as a personal act. A portrait or conventional bust is not this mechanism. Allegation, reconstruction, and established occurrence stay distinct. ## People - Trajan: https://factrail.ai/people/trajan ## Drivers - Industrial-Policy Activism: https://factrail.ai/drivers/industrial-policy-activism ## Sources - https://www.icr.ro/ - https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/598/ ## Methodology https://factrail.ai/methodology Canonical: https://factrail.ai/facts/trj-ulpia-traiana
