Under Trajan, the Roman Empire attained its greatest territorial extent and his reign was later remembered as one of the most successful. Late antique authors also recalled that a persecution of Christians had taken place under his rule and that he had forbidden anonymous denunciations of supposed Christians. Joh. Eph., EH 6.23, remembers his great victory over the Parthians.
