Titus Manlius Torquatus( born before 208 – died after 133 BC) was a politician of the Roman Republic, who became consul in 165 BC.

Ptolemy VIII Physcon
Ptolemy VIII Euergetes II Tryphon ("Ptolemaĩos Euergétēs TryphonPtolemy the Benefactor, the luxurious"; c. 184 BC – 28 June 116 BC),
nicknamed Physcon ("Fatty"), was a king of the Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt.
He was the younger son of Ptolemy V Epiphanes and Cleopatra I Syra.
His reign was characterised by fierce political and military conflict with his older brother Ptolemy VI Philometor and his sister Cleopatra II.
Ptolemy VIII was originally made co-ruler with his older siblings in the run-up to the Sixth Syrian War.
In the course of that war, Ptolemy VI was captured and Ptolemy VIII became sole king of Egypt.
When the war ended and Ptolemy VI was restored to the throne in 168 BC, the two brothers continued to quarrel.
In 164 BC Ptolemy VIII drove out his brother and became sole king of the Ptolemaic empire, but he was expelled in turn in 163 BC.
As a result of Roman intervention, Ptolemy VIII was awarded control of Cyrenaica.
From there he repeatedly tried to capture Cyprus, which had also been promised to him by the Romans, from his brother.
After Ptolemy VI's death in 145 BC, Ptolemy VIII returned to Egypt as co-ruler with his sister.
His cruel treatment of opposition and his decision to marry his niece Cleopatra III and promote her to the status of co-regent led to a civil war from 132 to 126 BC, in which Cleopatra II controlled Alexandria and enjoyed the support of the Greek population of the country, while Ptolemy VIII and Cleopatra III controlled most of the rest of Egypt and were supported by the native Egyptians.
During this war, native Egyptians were promoted to the highest echelons of the Ptolemaic government for the first time.
Ptolemy was victorious and ruled alongside Cleopatra II and Cleopatra III until his death in 116 BC.
The ancient Greek sources on Ptolemy VIII are extremely hostile, characterising him as cruel and mocking him as fat and degenerate, as part of a contrast with Ptolemy VI, whom they present extremely positively.
The historian Günther Höbl calls him "one of the most brutal and at the same time one of the shrewdest politicians of the Hellenistic Age."
Conall Collamrach
Conall Collamrach, son of Eterscél Temrach, son of Eochaid Ailtlethan, was, according to medieval Irish legend and historical tradition, a High King of Ireland.
He succeeded to the throne on the death of his uncle Óengus Tuirmech Temrach, and ruled for five years, until he was killed by Nia Segamain.
The" Lebor Gabála" synchronises his reign with that of Ptolemy VIII Physcon in Egypt( 145 – 116 BC).
The chronology of Geoffrey Keating's" Foras Feasa ar Éirinn" dates his reign to 232–226 BC, that of the" Annals of the Four Masters" to 326–320 BC.
Ptolemy V Epiphanes
Ptolemy V Epiphanes ("Ptolemaĩos Epiphanḗs EucharistosPtolemy the Manifest, the Beneficent"; 9 October 210–September 180 BC), son of the siblings Ptolemy IV Philopator and Arsinoe III of Egypt, was the fifth ruler of the Ptolemaic dynasty from July/August 204 to September 180 BC.
Ptolemy inherited the throne at the age of five, when his parents died in suspicious circumstances.
The new regent, Agathocles was widely reviled and was toppled by a revolution in 202 BC, but the series of regents who followed proved incompetent and the kingdom was paralysed.
The Seleucid king Antiochus III and the Antigonid king Philip V took advantage of the kingdom's weakness to begin the Fifth Syrian War (202-196 BC), in which the Ptolemies lost all their territories in Asia Minor and the Levant, as well as most of their influence in the Aegean Sea.
Simultaneously, Ptolemy V faced a widespread Egyptian revolt (206-185 BC) led by self-proclaimed Pharaohs, which resulted in the loss of most of Upper Egypt and parts of Lower Egypt as well.
Ptolemy V came of age in 196 BC and was crowned as Pharaoh in Memphis, an occasion commemorated by the creation of the Rosetta Stone.
After this, he made peace with Antiochus III and married his daughter Cleopatra I in 194/3 BC.
This disgusted the Romans who had entered into hostilities with Antiochus partially on Ptolemy's behalf - after their victory, they distributed the old Ptolemaic territories in Asia Minor to Pergamum and Rhodes rather than returning them to Egypt.
However, Ptolemaic forces steadily reconquered the south of the country, bringing all of Upper Egypt back under Ptolemaic control in 186 BC.
In his last years, Ptolemy began manoeuvring for renewed warfare with the Seleucid empire, but these plans were cut short by his sudden death in September 180 BC, allegedly poisoned by courtiers worried about the cost of the war.
Ptolemy's reign saw greatly increased prominence of courtiers and the Egyptian priestly elite in Ptolemaic political life - a pattern that would continue for most of the rest of the kingdom's existence.
It also marked the collapse of Ptolemaic power in the wider Mediterranean region.
Arthur Eckstein has argued that this collapse sparked the 'power transition crisis' which led to the Roman conquest of the eastern Mediterranean.
