Listen "86- Rising Tensions"
Episode Synopsis
Antiochus III attempts to stamp his authority on Asia Minor and makes the first overtures towards Thrace, just as Antiochus II and Seleucus I once did. However, he doesn't bank on the city of Lampsacus appealing to a little known state called the Roman Republic for help. Join us this week for diplomatic rowing, a rumour about the death of Ptolemy V and Rome trying to flex its muscles.Sources for this episode:TBA
