Map of Central Asia & India (with Bactria) c.200 BC |
|
The kingdom of Bactria (shown in white) was at the height of its power around 200-180 BC, with fresh conquests being made in the south-east, encroaching into India just as the Mauryan empire was on the verge of collapse, while around the northern and eastern borders dwelt various tribes which would eventually contribute to the downfall of the Greeks - the Sakas and Tocharians. A clickable version of this map is available for desktop displays. To select a kingdom, state, or tribe for further information, click on its name.
