Chapter 409 – Parthian? Is It Eatable?
"The Parthian Empire …"
A name of a powerhouse civilization that prevented all Chinese from contacting the Roman Empire.
Ever since Wudi Emperor had established the Silk Road, the Han Chinese attempted to extend their trade route to the famous Roman Empire.
However, the Parthian Empire did not want the prosperous country to trade with their rivals, so they stopped all trade routes, telling the merchants that there was nothing to see beyond their empire.
The blockade not only stopped Han's merchants from trading with Parthian's nemesis, but they also capitalized the Silk Road trading as the middle-man, reaping the most profits from the trade.
