Plausibility Check:The Sahara Desert with a Surviving Roman North Africa?

It was to my understanding that Roman Farmers pushed back the Sahara desert, and made the climate favourable in some place in North africa.

What would the affects of a Surviving Roman North Africa? (One that is simmilar to the size it was during the rule of Trajan)

Could we see a smaller Sahara? Would the Desert still be able to push to the coast?

Would the Population be higher?

Could we see a large European Population develop there in the future?

Are you sure about Roman farmers pushing back the Sahara? I thought the over-exploitation during roman times ( being the granary of the empire and such) lead to an expansion of the desert ( beyond the dissapearing of many species used in the games).
