==== Greece ====
* The [[Achaean League|Achaeans]] respond to [[Sparta]]'s renewed interest in recovering lost territory by sending an envoy to [[Roman Republic|Rome]] with a request for help. In response, the [[Roman Senate]] sends the [[praetor]] [[Aulus Atilius Serranus|Atilius]] with a navy, as well as an embassy headed by [[Titus Quinctius Flamininus]].
* Not waiting for the Roman fleet to arrive, the Achaean army and navy head towards [[Gythium]] under the command of [[Philopoemen]]. The Achaean fleet under Tiso is defeated by the Spartan fleet. On land, the Achaeans are unable to defeat the Spartan forces outside Gythium and Philopoemen retreats to [[Tegea]].
* When Philopoemen reenters [[Laconia]] for a second attempt, his forces are ambushed by the Spartan [[tyrant]], [[Nabis of Sparta|Nabis]], but nevertheless Philopoemen manages to gain a victory over the Spartan forces.
* Philopoemen's plans for capturing Sparta itself are put on hold at the request of the Roman envoy Flaminius after his arrival in Greece. In return, Nabis decides, for the moment, to accept the status quo.
* Nabis then appeals to the [[Aetolia]]ns for help. They send 1,000 cavalry under the command of [[Alexamenus of Aetolia|Alexamenus]] to Sparta. However, the Aetolians murder Nabis and temporarily occupy Sparta. The Aetolian troops seize the palace and set about looting the city, but the inhabitants of Sparta are able to rally and force them leave the city. Philopoemen, however, takes advantage of the Aetolian treachery and enters Sparta with his Achaean army. Now in full control of Sparta, Philopoemen forces Sparta to become a member state of the [[Achaean League]].
* [[Seleucid]] forces under their king, [[Antiochus III the Great|Antiochus III]], invade Greece at the invitation of the [[Aetolian League]], who are revolting against the Romans. The Aetolians appoint him commander in chief of their league. Antiochus lands in [[Demetrias]], [[Thessaly]] with only 10,500 men and occupies [[Euboea]]. However, he finds little support for his cause in central Greece.
