The first Diadochi war
started on 322BC and ended in 320BC.
In the first war of Diadochi, one of the Diadochi
called 'Perdicass' was attempting to marry
Alexander's sister, Cleopatra. This marriage will give
Perdicass the control of Macedonian.

of the Silk Road, they would have no power.146BC

it was a very big event during the time.
