Mithridates VI of Pontus was one of the rulers deemed the Enemy of Rome by the historians, and rightly so. He and his allies waged three wars against the Roman Republic, killed thousands of the citizens and stemmed the Roman expansion for three decades. In this documentary, we are describing the events of the first Mithridatic war (89-85 BC) in which Pontic army fought against the future Roman dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla, with the central battles of Chaeronea (86 BC) and Orchomenus (85 BC). We are planning to cover the Second and the Third Mithridatic Wars, and the struggle between Lucullus an Pompey on one side and Mithridates and Tigranes on the other.
