PARTHIAN EMPIRE
250 BC - 226 AD

The founder of the Parthian Empire was Arsaces I, who was king of Parthia around 250-211 BC.

The years 60-68 AD saw successful campaigns of the Roman general Gnaeus Domitius Corbulo against the Parthians.

In 224 AD, the last Parthian king Artabanus V was killed in battle by Ardashir I, who thus ended the Parthian Empire and established the Sasanid Empire.
