Keren Su © / Stone
The centuries just before the Common Era were an age of empire, west and east. In the west, the vast but short-lived empire of Alexander the Great had fragmented into different states and kingdoms. Mauryan kings reclaimed their Indian territories. The kingdom then known as Iran rose again with the Parthians of its eastern regions, who came to dominate most western trade routes. Egypt remained the kingdom of the Ptolemys, descendants of one of Alexander’s generals. Its chief city, Alexandria, was the jewel of the Western world.
