  1. After discussing the eastern gate, Michael briefly mentions a second Byzantine embassy that took place in 576, during the time of Tiberius Caesar, later emperor Tiberius II Constantine (578-82). He recounts how the king of the Turks asked the 'Roman' ambassadors if they were under the jurisdiction of the Persians:

    And they replied that they were not, but that at many times the Persians were subject to the Romans, so that even Trajan, king of the Romans (CE 98-117), set up an image [of himself] in the land of the Persians and they (i.e. the Romans) made them worship his image. And when he heard these things, the king of the Turks drove out the Persians from Margiana, because they (i.e. the Persians) were covering up these things.

  2. The Gokturk and Byzantine alliance was the most depressing period of the Sassanids. Hormuz, who was on the throne during this period, had thirteen thousand people killed by the Sassanid notables who opposed him. These were the Sassanid nobility, usually composed of clergy and commanders. There were even aspahbands among them. All this caused the Sassanid army to weaken. Taking this as an opportunity, Tardu's younger son Yang-Su attacked towards the Sassanid eastern border in 589. The Sassanid army of seventy thousand men, tasked with guarding the eastern border, was scattered. After this defeat, the Sassanids began to retreat. Horasan, Taligan, Belh, Herat and Badgis were attacked by Göktürks.

  3. The Greco-Iranian, hmm let's call it, competitive bromance is probably the most iconic relationship in all of civilization's history 😍👨‍❤️‍👨

    Had it's ups and downs of course, but a twelve century intimacy is an amount of time unimaginable by many cultures.

    Though it's disappointing that all those pesky Arabic, Turkic and European jealous mofos got in the way, I hope one day we can get back to appreciating each other's existence, culture and legacy, as it was customary for all these years. (you know, whole city eradicated, one million tagmata/aswaran dead, general assassinating the shah cause he's got a crush on the basileus, involving Armenia for old time's sake, etc)

  4. The count at the end is wrong, about half of the "stalemates" ended in Rome paying tribute to Iran, idk why wikipedia says status quo when paying tribute sounds like an iranian win (lazic war and eternal peace spring to mind as examples)
