The Roman-Persian Wars were a series of conflicts between the Greco-Roman world and two successive Iranian empires that began as a war between the late Roman Republic and Parthia in 92 BC before being carried over to the Roman and the Sassanid Empires. The bitter, long-running conflict between the two rivals finally concluded as a conflict between the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) and the Sassanid Empire in 627 AD, followed soon after by Arab invasions into both Roman and Persian territories from 632 AD onwards.
