NEW MAP: Europe 36: Civil Wars of Artabanus II (29 Feb 36 AD) https://buff.ly/2XRYJll From 10–38 AD Parthia was dominated by King Artabanus II, who gained power when he overthrew the Roman-raised Vonones I in the civil war of 10–18 and regained power after being usurped by another pro-Roman king, Tiridates III, in 36. A third civil war would break out later that year. Despite repeated attempts to expand into Armenia, Artabanus’ reigns saw an overall weakening of Parthian power as the empire fell victim to increasing infighting. #europe #history #map #ancienthistory #classicalera #persianempire #kingdomofarmenia #ancientarmenia #cappadocia #europeanhistory #february #february29 #adiabene #atropatene #parthianempire #parthia #romanempire #romans #roman #ancientrome #romanhistory #maps #newmap #historyteacher #historybuff #historygeek #historynerd #worldhistory #cartography #geopolitics (at Ctesifonte) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0EkEveAUK_/?igshid=a5z1i9u6ht3m
