    Default Re: The Most Succesfull Succesor

    I would define "successful" not only in terms of military potential but also stability and continuity. When one sees how many Seleucid leaders ended assassinated or killed in revolts/wars (just to name Seleucus I, III and IV, Antiochus I, II and III), I side with the Ptolemaic Kingdom.

    Seleucid power was more "unfocused" and did not succeed to retain much the loyalty of their subjects.
