Thracian Kingdom

Seleukid Kingdom

Black Sea Kingdoms

Seleukos I ruled almost all of Alexander's conquests except Egypt, but his successors were unable to maintain control over the eastern provinces. First Bactria and then Parthia broke away, and ultimately the Parthians assumed control over most of the original Seleukid realm.

Seleukos I

The later Seleukid rulers did not help the future of the kingdom by their vicious dynastic infighting. When Pompey the Great annexed the Seleukid domain as a Roman province, the once mighty Seleukid realm had been reduced to little more than the province of Syria.
