Events

By place

Greece

• After checking the ambitions of the Spartan tyrant, Nabis, the Roman forces under proconsul Titus Quinctius Flamininus finally withdraw from Greece.
• With the Roman legions under Flaminius returning to Italy, the Greek states are once again on their own. The Romans leave the dominant powers in the region; the kingdom of Macedonia, the Aetolians, the strengthened Achaean League and the weakened Sparta. The Aetolians, who have opposed the Roman intervention in Greek affairs, incite the Spartan leader, Nabis, to retake his former territories and regain his influence in Greek affairs.

Seleucid Empire

• With his peace agreement with the Egyptians in place, Antiochus III now turns his attention to the West. He is encouraged to challenge Rome's protection of the Greeks by his advisor, the former Carthaginian general Hannibal.
• Philip V of Macedon, along with Rhodes, Pergamum, and the Achaean League, join Rome against Antiochus III.
