Best Answer

Hadrian did not add any territories to the Roman Empire during his reign. He actually gave up some Roman territories. He gave the Persian back the territory his predecessor, Trajan, had conquered from them: Mesopotamia (Iraq). Hadrian pursued a policy of peace. Instead of carrying out conquests, he strengthened the fortification of the frontiers of the empire.
