The wars of the successors have got to be some of my favourite conflicts just the drama of these men former brothers in arms now battling it out for control of the vast empire they conquered together is so intersting

As Alexander the Great lay on his deathbed, his generals asked to whom he left his empire. "To the strongest," Alexander said. on the plain of Raphia soldiers fight the tooth to nail to claim this title "the strongest". so many what if with Alexander and his empire

That sounds like a fabrication,i heard of many different versions like he named his son as heir but what is clear is that he was poisoned by his own.

@Joey Wheeler + We will never know his actual last words.

I wish, you create music for battle of Ipsus. The final and epic clash between the elder dyadohs in the struggle for the future of the empire of Alexander the Great. One of the largest (if not the largest) battle of the ancient era! I really hope that this battle will provide you with the proper inspiration for writing the appropriate music!

Awesome Hellenic battle music. “To the strongest!” ⚔️💪🏼🤴🏽

sign this guy a contract for rome total wat 3 please

Your music never ceases to amaze, mate

your music is great, keep the good work my friend

Phalanxes lead the way!

Great stuff

My fav music of your's

I love the hellenistic age so much!

Hey Tyler, i was listening to some total war soundtracks and the youtube autoplay went to one of your song, i meanwhile wasn't looking at youtube and i didn't even notice a difference in your soundtrack and actual medieval 2 soundtracks! i am a mediocre programmer who makes small 2d games as a hobby and i would like some advice on how to make music for my games, music is always the reason i just stop working on my games for 3 weeks because music is the only thing i have left to do! so, is there a way for me to message you and ask for some advice?

Hey man, thanks for checking it out. You can send me a message to my email or on my site if you'd like to learn more, I'd be happy to help.

Good job ! This was not a battle bewteen diadochi, but between successors of diadochi (epigoni) ;)

🔥🔥🔥

A lot of books are being released on the Daidochi just now in English,I just picked up three from pen and sword books. "The Perdicas years(v1 of 3)" , "The Selucid army" and a book on magnesia. I can't remember the name of that one and am too lazy too go to book room and check lol. PS,I'm poor and working class but have a large military history library. No kindle! Just books,it's hard work but can be done.

The Battle of Raphia, the Swan song of the Hellenistic era.

The diadochi wars would make a kick ass series but i feel like in reality they were really kind of a waste they just weakened themselves :/

Whens this going in a total war game?

The two Rome: Total War games amply cover the Diadochi, having Ptolemaic Egypt, Seleucia, Greece and Macedon. No reason you can't rig up a Battle of Raphia between Egypt and Seleucia in a skirmish or something.

Or kick the shit out of Egypt as selucids

4th Most Important Diadochi battle

Sound Greek Egyptian

whos here after that game ad?

Such a shame that neither of the successors lasted they just fought each other till third party nations(Parthians Romans etc) sneaked up on them when they were at their weakest such a shame to see Hellenism leave central Asia.

i would side with seleucid instead of ptolemies, because they manage to preserve hellenic institutions, culture, and promote forced hellenization in the whole empire. They were true to Greece, Ptolemies (on the contrary) worship egyptians native gods and sincretysm to preserve their power

Some say that Ptolemy I was a man of limited ambition only content on holding Egypt . But you have to give them credit they did successfully mix the Greek and Egyptian cultures and created the most stable state after the war of the successors. I would side with the Ptolemaic kingdom from Ptolemy I Soter to Cleopatra and Ceaseran they will all ways be remembered as the last pharaohs of Egypt which was the last of the Hellenistic kingdom that held out but ultimately fell to Rome. That in itself is a great and enduring legacy.

That was only later. When Greek settlers were almost wiped in battles post-Raphia. Ptolemies came to depend on native soldiers. Ptolemy I-III were phil-hellenes. You can see that all through Egypt.

The three, that remained standing were all cool. I would say, that Ptolemy had the body, Seleucus the spirit and Antigonas the blood (Macedonian) of Alexander. Together they could rule the world.

Seleucids by far they had the size the ambition and promoted Hellenism,great stuff, Ptolemy was too confined in Egypt

The Chadumonial war (Fiction)

Alexander really did leave an empire behind didn’t he? After his death came new Greek empires likes the Seleucid empire under the Greek Macedonian general Seleucis I nicator and Ptolemaic Egypt under Ptolemy I soter, the Greek Macedonian general that carried out the last dynasty of ancient Egypt including the likes of Cleopatra to which recently I found out she was Greek! I thought she was Egyptian😂 shes actually a decendant of the founder of the Ptolemaic dynasty Ptolemy I soter the Greek Macedonian who rode with Alexander the Great in battle against the Persians.
