Roman Wars in Syria

The Roman Wars in Syria were conflicts tied to Rome's eastern expansion.

After defeating the Seleucid King Antiochus III at the Battle of Magnesia (190 BCE), Rome's influence grew, and Syria became a Roman province in 64 BCE under Pompey the Great.

The region later served as a critical frontier in Rome's wars with Parthia and Persia, solidifying its importance in the empire's eastern dominion.
