Orodes III Of Parthia Life story
Orodes III was raised to the throne of the Parthian Empire around AD 4 by the magnates after the death of Phraates V. He was killed after a short reign "on account of his extreme cruelty". After his death, Phraates V's brother Vonones I tried to assume the throne, but a civil war with Artabanus III followed.
