Information: Hadrian, 24 January AD 76 – 10 July AD 138, was Roman emperor from AD 117 to AD 138. He assumed control over the vast Roman Empire following the death of his adoptive father, Trajan. As emperor, he broke with the expansionist policies of his predecessors to focus on securing the Roman Empire within its existing borders.

His most impressive statement of this policy was Hadrian’s Wall – a monument that still influences the landscape of northern England today.

Hadrian's last years were marred by chronic illness. He died of heart disease in July AD 138 at Baiae, Italy.
