Sam Choi CHAPTER 12 OUTLINE Long-Distance Trade and The Silk Roads Network Trade Networks of the Hellenistic Era The frequency of long-distance trade increased during the Hellenistic era. This was mainly because of colonies established by the Seleucids and Alexander the Great in Persia and Bactria. Such settlements were originally populated by military and administrators, but later attracted Greek merchants, who connected such areas to the Mediterranean. Seleucids promoted trade, controlled trade routes between Bactria and rest of world. Ptolemies also focused on maritime as well as overland trade, defeated pirates and built new ports.

Sassanid Empire
The Sasanid Empire, 224–600 Politics and Society- 1.The Sasanid kingdom was established in 224 and controlled the areas of Iran and Mesopotamia. The Sasanids confronted Arab pastoralists on their Euphrates border and the Byzantine Empire on the west. Relations with the Byzantines alternated between war and peaceful trading relationships. In times of peace, the Byzantine cities of Syria and the Arab nomads who guided caravans between the Sasanid and Byzantine Empires all flourished on trade. Arabs also benefited from the invention of the camel saddle, which allowed them to take control of the caravan trade. 2. The Iranian hinterland was ruled by a largely autonomous local aristocracy that did not, however, pose a threat to the stability of the Sasanid Empire.
