Scenarios about 'seleucid'
The Seleucid Empire was a Hellenistic state founded by Seleucus I Nicator following the death of Alexander the Great, ruling much of Western Asia from 312 BCE to 63 BCE. This powerful successor kingdom blended Greek and Near Eastern cultures, faced challenges from the Ptolemaic Empire, Parthians, and Romans, and represents a crucial period when Greek influence spread throughout the ancient Middle East.
