Great video!

I personally respect the Seleucid empire because they were able to experience revivals after periods of decline. When a nation is in decline it is rare that they can come back stronger, this trait of perseverance is also seen in Rome.

You only mentioned the revival with Antiochus the great but we must never forget about Antiochus IV who once again restored glory to the empire and nearly wiped the Ptolomies from the map, and Antiochus VII who inherited a crumbling empire but was able to almost beat back the parthians and recover all of its eastern territories.

Seleucid Empire in Rome Total War was an absolute unit of a faction and if you played them you are statistically 96% more likely to be a beefcake irl

Nice video.
I'm from India. There was a famous historical TV show here about emperor Ashoka and the Mauryan royal family. So there were many episodes about Chandra Gupta Maurya's interaction with Selucus-1. Chandragupta married Selucus-1's daughter and there was a lot of drama and politics in the palace and fusion of indian and Greek culture.etc
Your video reminded me of that show. Awesome video by the way!

Nice video. I loved to play as Seleucid Empire in the first Rome Total war.
They had too many territories by the way. With that level of logistics, it was extremely difficult to control such a vast area.
Btw, splendid ambient on the background)

For some reason I feel like this video is at 0.75 speed.

1 mistake
The seleucids were conquered by Tigranes II of Armenia, after the romans defeated the arminians at the battle of tegranocirta
The romans took all Armenian provinces

Funny that in Rome TW the Seleucid's have possibly the strongest unit roster in the game. Cataphracts, pike dudes and cretan archers right on their doorstep. Once you go Cataphract you never go back.
