=== By place ===

==== Greece ====
* At a [[Greeks|Pan-Hellenic]] Conference in [[Corinth]], [[Philip II of Macedon]] announces the formation of the [[League of Corinth]] to liberate the Greek cities of [[Asia Minor]] from [[Achaemenid Empire|Persian]] rule, ostensibly because the Persian King, [[Arses of Persia|Arses]], refuses to make reparations to Philip for [[Artaxerxes III]]'s aid to the city of [[Perinthus]] when it was resisting Philip. All the Greek cities (except [[Sparta]]) and the Greek islands swear their support to the league and to recognise Philip as president of the League. Philip establishes a council of representatives from all the Greek states, which is empowered to deliberate and decide on the actions to be taken. However, the real power lies with Philip who is declared commander of the League's army.
* [[Olympias]] is put aside by her husband Philip II, following Philip's marriage to a girl named [[Cleopatra Eurydice of Macedon|Cleopatra]] (who is renamed Eurydice). Their son, [[Alexander the Great|Alexander]], is effectively disowned by Philip's actions. Philip II has [[Ptolemy I Soter|Ptolemy]], along with other companions of his son, exiled.

==== Roman Republic ====
* A [[plebeian]] is chosen to be [[praetor]] of [[Roman Republic|Rome]] for the first time.
