Reading the Histories manga has me a bit said for how Eumenes will meet his end so I'm hoping they put a spin on it. The remaining Argeads should've seen the writing on the wall that without Philip or Alexander, the dynasty was done.

That's the bad side of becoming too rich too fast, they didn't knew how to keep cool head. Where's the Romans gradually expanded and managed to settle in.
awesome stuff guys, no one else goes into depth concerning this increibly intersting period of history at best youll find a few pages or a ten min video. I bought a whole book on the subject and it had only 4 pgs on Bactria for ex. lol

Excellent podcast! A correction if you allow me: in the word Diadochoi the d is pronounced like "th" in the word "the" and "oi" is pronounced like the letter "e".
Such a pity that Alexander didn't lived longer, and that his generals were not more united.....they could've created civilization like Romans.
Ofcourse and if Athens ruled the whole Greece at the time Spaartans and Macedonians also would be their subjects not alice because all of them are Greeks but hate its other
