Sulla's civil wars
Sulla's civil wars were a series of civil wars in which Lucius Cornelius Sulla, a Roman statesman and general, attempted to take control of the Roman Republic.
== Background ==
The Roman general and longtime consul Gaius Marius had gained great prominence during the 2nd century BC, particularly as a result of his campaign against the rebelling African king Jugurtha.〔Bailey, Ann Howard, John Bowman, Ormonde de Kay, ''et al.'' The Universal History of the World, Vol. III, Ancient Rome. Golden Press, New York 1966〕 The campaign was successful, and Marius was rewarded with re-election as consul and a triumph. However, to his disappointment, Lucius Cornelius Sulla, one of his officers, was given credit for Jugurtha's capture.〔(Marius and Sulla ). Yaggyslatin.com. Retrieved on 2010-10-13.〕
In Asia, Mithradates, king of Pontus, began to attack regions that had been annexed by Rome. He also infiltrated his agents into Roman-held cities, which caused popular uprisings and vicious riots that resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of Romans.〔 The Roman governors, however, had few soldiers to stop him with, for Rome was embroiled in the Social War against Italian city-states in the south.〔
