Antigonus III Doson, reviving the Hellenic Alliance …
Years: 225BCE - 214BCE
Antigonus III Doson, reviving the Hellenic Alliance as a confederacy of leagues with himself as president restores internal stability and reestablishes Macedon in a stronger position in Greece than it had enjoyed since the reign of Gonatas.
Antigonus defeats the Achaean League, together with Sparta, but allows a shadow of independence to what appears to be a large body constituting a kind of representative government.
The Social War, or the War of the Allies, fought from 220 BCE to 217 BCE between the Hellenic League under Philip V of Macedon and the Aetolian League, Sparta and Elis, is ended with the Peace of Naupactus.
As a result of the war, Philip V becomes the major military power in Greece.
Philip after 217 turns his attention westward towards the Roman Republic.
He takes Illyria on the westernmost part of the Balkan Peninsula, in 215 allies with Hannibal and Carthage against Rome, and even considers crossing the Adriatic Sea and invading Italy.
