Baktria

Baktria is a land of a thousand golden cities all grown rich on trade, and sits at the crossroads between the Hellenistic and Indian worlds, and “Serica”, the lands of silk, to the east. With the Seleucids struggling against Ptolemaic Egypt, the Baktrians could establish their own empire stretching from the roof of the world to, possibly, the far shores of the Mediterranean.
