The hero of this book is the Pontic Tsar Mithridate VI Evupator - called the most dangerous enemy of Romans since Hannibal. The king of the Karlikova Black Sea country challenged the huge Roman power and found a lot of supporters in the Hellenistic world. He was opened by the gate of Pergam and Athens, Panticapy and Naples Scythian. His union was looking for a commander of the sector in Spain from Rome and the leader of the risks of the slaves Spartak - in Italy. Mithridate again and again moved to the offensive, dreamed of a campaign on Rome and was defeated only after a forty-year war, due to the enormous inequality of forces. When the Romans learned about his death, they, according to Plutarch, rejoiced so, as if tens of thousands of enemies were killed in the face of Mithridate. Small king on the edge of Okumen, he became famous on a par with his great contemporaries by Sulla, Caesar, Pompey and Cleopatra. However, the popular biography of Mithridate has not yet been written. The book of the historian and writer Stanislav Chernyavsky fills this gap
