==== Greece ====

* The city of [[Alaşehir|Philadelphia]] (now [[Alaşehir]], [[Turkey]]) is founded by King Eumenes II of Pergamon. Eumenes names the city after his brother, [[Attalus II Philadelphus|Attalus]], whose loyalty earns him the nickname, "Philadelphus", literally meaning "one who loves his brother".
