  • January 175 BC: The Seleucids were unable to further intervene in Parthian affairs following increasing encroachment by the Roman Republic and the Seleucid defeat at Magnesia in 190 BC. Phriapatius of Parthia succeeded Arsaces II, and Phraates I of Parthia eventually ascended the throne. Phraates I ruled Parthia without further Seleucid interference.
