===Antiochus III in Power===

When Antiochus III (ruled 223-187 BC) came to power, he had the benefit of inheriting a fairly stable and prosperous kingdom. With that said, the rule of Antiochus III “Megas,” or “the Great,” represented the apex of Seleucid power – the empire stretched to its farthest extent and the kings commanded the respect of rulers from Rome to India. It would be on the battlefield where Antiochus III would have the greatest impact in the Hellenistic world, although he was not always successful.
