Abstract
In the Peloponnese in the late third century, the Achaean League was engaged in opposing Sparta's attempts to reassert its authority over its neighbors, especially Megalopolis and Mantinea. Achaean efforts were often commanded by Philopoemen and were frequently supported by the Romans when they happened to have an army in the Balkans.
