From Warlike
Q123481777
The Military campaigns of Tigranes the Great constituted offensives by Tigranes the Great, King of Armenia, against client kingdoms of the Roman Republic and Parthian Empire. His conquests extended the realm from the Caspian Sea in the east to the Mediterranean Sea in the west, encompassing territories such as Syria, Phoenicia, and parts of Anatolia. He built a new capital Tigranocerta and populated it with people deported from Cappadocia. His initial invasions of Cappadocia drew the attention of the Roman Republic and after being defeated in two separate campaigns, Tigranes was allowed to keep Armenia as a client kingdom of Rome while paying an indemnity of 6,000 talents and relinquishing all his conquests.
