Ancient Greek History – The Successors

<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Times New Roman&#34;,serif"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">An introduction to the exciting ‘Hellenistic’ period – where super-rich kings vied for control of vast areas of territory from Greece across to Afghanistan.</span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Times New Roman&#34;,serif"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">Following the death of Alexander his enormous empire was fought over by his ‘Successors’. For fifty years Alexander’s former comrades bitterly contested for the title of ‘Great King’. During this time Greek art and culture flourished across an enormous area, only to be gradually drawn under the <em>imperium</em> of Rome. An often over-looked period, this was a time of super-rich kings, interesting characters, and changes that created the foundations for both the Roman and medieval worlds.</span></span></span></p>
