TLoPM Part II | The Mithridatic Command, Eastern Arrangements, The Principes and Cato attack Pompey
Pompey chases Mithridates and reorganizes the East, making it the wealthiest province of the Roman Empire. Cato the Younger stands up to Pompey Magnus and Pompey for the first time encounters staunch resistance. Left looking like a fool, Pompey manages to recover some ground by getting his trusted lieutenant L. Afranius elected Consul. However, Afranius was sorely lacking in political skills and influence, making it impossible for Pompey to accomplish anything politically.
