Getae and Dacians? Are they the same? Or is this unknowable?

[Robert Vermaat]

Hi Razvan,

Just an observation:

There was Dacian kingdom back then, Roxolani was allies of Dacians, fighting as auxiliars for them and was based in north east of their kingdom

If they were inside the Dacian kingdom, how could they have been allies? They would have been subjects, right?

Another:

.. and Taifali was no near around, and really impossible to establish themselves in a quite big part of Dacian kingdom (the major power of Europe back then, outside the Roman empire), and took that as their pasturage.

Where do you find your information that the dacian kingdom was "the major power of Europe back then, outside the Roman empire"? How far are you assuming that the dacian kingdom stretched? When i read this i have visions of a kingdom from the Black Sea to the Elbe river or something?
