Both the Roman Empire under Trajan and the Byzantine Empire under Justinian I were motivated by territorial expansion, but with slight differences. Trajan's expansion was driven by a desire for military glory and the thirst for conquest, as he aimed to enlarge the empire's boundaries and enhance its status as a dominant power. On the other hand, Justinian's motivation for territorial expansion revolved around reclaiming former territories of the Roman Empire that had been lost to invaders, thereby reestablishing the glory of the old empire. Both empires sought to expand their dominion, but Trajan's expansion was fueled by a desire for conquest, whereas Justinian's expansion aimed to restore lost territories.
