When Seleukos IV acceded to the throne, Asia minor was lost to the kings of Pergamon, the Eastern provinces of Parthia and Bactria firmly established as independent kingdoms, and in addition he had to pay a heavy annual war indemnity to the Romans. He seems to have wisely ruled what was left of the Seleukid kingdom until he was murdered by his minister
Heliodoros.
