NEW MAP: Northern Africa 110: Trajan’s Red Sea expansion (circa 110) https://omniatlas.com/maps/northern-africa/1101214/ When Trajan assumed power in 98 AD, the Roman Empire entered its most expansionist phase since the reign of Augustus. Particularly interested in the East, Trajan secured Indian Ocean trade by annexing Nabataea, building a canal to link the Nile to the Red Sea, and, in the south of that sea, establishing a garrison on tropical Farasan island. #trajan #ancientrome #romanemperor #carta #romanafrica #farasan #historian #histories #historyclass #historymajor #historymuseum #mapa #mapmaking #mapping #maps #northernafrica #parthia #riskgame #roman #romanempire #romanhistory #romanegypt #romans #ancientarabia #spqr #emperortrajan #ancientegypt #ancienthistory #teachinghistory #newmap (at Farasan Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKF1BQ9AxfR/?igshid=133v6ffwknhih
