The Seleucid state was a continuation of the monarchy of Alexander the Great and of the Achaemenids before him, and it inherited from its predecessors all its obstinate troubles. Impressed by Alexander the Great's campaign, the historians overlooked the obvious truth that the conquest itself could not have resolved all the pervasive problems that haunted the Achaemenid state. And then, the Achaemenids' Asian heirs, the Seleucids, were faced by many new challenges. One aspect that has so far been taken little notice of was the resistance of the local population.
