Macedonian other Early Empires 4th century BC to 168BC

After the Macedonian conquests of the region would unite the area for the fist time in history and it would remain
under Macedonian rule for only a short time of history. Despite that it did help unify the people and their culture and
help their people and culture spread beyond their territorial region. After the Macedonian Empire fell and crumbled a
migration of people entered the region with Illyrians settling in the northwest, the Dacians in the North who drove
Some of the Macedonian communities and people further south and the Thracians settling beyond their home region
in the northeast towards both the northern and eastern areas of the region.
The Thracians ended up being the people who dominated the region shortly after the demise of the Macedonians
reigning over most of the region but lost some of their territorial gains after some tribes of Gaul migrated past the
region. The Region was left with a small kingdom in the northeast with an Illyrian upper-class and Greek majority
lower-class and a Thracian led empire that had a predominant upper-class and a mostly Greek lower-class with
Macedonian and Dracian minorities.

Horreum
Pella
Larissa
Heraklea
Adrianoupolis
Apollonia
Phyrgos
Odessos

Latin Tribes/Empire period 168BC to 13AD

Both Empires would fall to the Latin people after a war in-between the two empires and the internal uprisings in
both nations led to venerable and weak to outside invasion. The region was split into or became part of four
different provinces of a much larger empire. It was during this time when improvements in infrastructure and
farming boosted the region greatly resulting in the posterity of the region.
After the Great Illyrian Revolt of 6AD to 9AD many Illyrian people fled into the region in which helped spark
the Great Thracian and Greek Revolt of 10 AD to 13AD which left the region somewhat devastated and
depopulated but independent. The country of Thacian Greece was formed and caused people of
both major ethnicities (Mostly Greek and Thracian) to migrate to the Country on mass. Thacian Greece
had engulfed the former 2 kingdoms from before the Latin peoples.
The newly founded country had a monarchy, restored the state religion to Greek Hellenic paganism and 2 national
ethnicities with Greek being the greater majority of people.
