Years: 700 - 711
The East Roman Empire is engaged in almost constant war with the Arabs in various fronts from 698 to 718.
The defeat at the Battle of Sebastopolis in 692 and internal instability have lead to the gradual loss of Armenia and Cilicia.
The Empire generally maintains a defensive stance against the annual Arab raids into Anatolia, despite some successes by Heraclius, brother of Emperor Tiberius III.
Carthage falls in 697: recovered soon after, it is again lost in 698, marking the end of Roman North Africa.
