Abstract

Abstract The reign of Philip V saw in quick succession the rise of Macedonian might to a level unparalleled since the reigns of Philip II and Alexander III (the Great), and its decisive defeat by the Romans in the Second Macedonian War (200–197 BCE ). As the Romans freed the Greeks from Macedonia's two centuries‐long domination and dashed any hopes for resurrecting her former superiority, Philip's reign paved the way to the eventual abolition of the Macedonian kingdom (168) and its conversion into a Roman province (148 or 146).
