He became king in 223 BC and is known as Antiochus the Great.
He, who had become a king in his youth, was able to gain power in the east. He made Molon the satrap of Media and Alexander the satrap of Persia.. Due to his youth, he entrusted all the powers of his government to his vizier. Molon became hostile and brought the city of Seleucia up to the Euphrates under his control. Antiochus himself went to the battle of Molon and defeated him..
Alexander also ended his life. After this success, he came to the east. First, he attacked Azerbaijan and conquered it without a war. He suppressed the rebellions of Asia Minor until 209 BC.. Antiochus was able to reach the city of Hundred Gates, which was apparently the Parthian capital. He defeated Orduan and was supposed to take tribute from him, but the power of the Ashkanites did not diminish. Bodo stopped fighting with them.
