King Mithridates and the Black Sea Empire

Today we explore the fascinating life of King Mithridates of Pontus and his Black Sea Empire!
I highly recommend "The Poison King" by Adrienne Mayor for the story of his life. For an overview of the Mithridatic wars, I also recommend this awesome issue of Ancient Warfare Magazine: https://www.karwansaraypublishers.com/issue-x-3-2016.html
