The Way to Cynoscephalae (200-197 BCE)

In 200 BCE, once Hannibal had been definitely defeated and Carthage begged for peace, the Roman Republic was free to move once more against Philip V of Macedonia. Rome and Macedonia had already fought a war over Illyria, the First Macedonian War, which ended in a stalemate. This time, two eastern powers, Pergamum and Rhodes appealed to Rome against the expansionistic ambitions of Philip V. After an initial hesitation, also the Aetolian League joined the Roman Republic.
