Historical background


MACEDONIA - ROMAN PROVINCE

(1st - 3rd century AD)

After the capture of Perseus at Pydna in 168 BC by Paul-Émile, Greece was separated into four republics. After Andriscus' revolt, Macedonia was heavily taxed and treated as a conquered province. Under the Empire, it became a senatorial province.
