This was a war fought between the Sassanid Empire of Persia and the Roman Empire, at this date sometimes termed the Byzantine Empire. It was triggered by pro-Roman revolts in areas of the Caucasus under Persian hegemony, although other events contributed to its outbreak. The fighting was largely confined to the southern Caucasus and Mesopotamia, although it also extended into eastern Anatolia, Syria and northern Iran.

dbpprop:abstract
  • This was a war fought between the Sassanid Empire of Persia and the Roman Empire, at this date sometimes termed the Byzantine Empire. It was triggered by pro-Roman revolts in areas of the Caucasus under Persian hegemony, although other events contributed to its outbreak. The fighting was largely confined to the southern Caucasus and Mesopotamia, although it also extended into eastern Anatolia, Syria and northern Iran. It was part of an intense sequence of wars between these two empires which occupied the majority of the 6th and early 7th centuries. It was also the last of the many wars between them to follow a pattern in which fighting was largely confined to frontier provinces and neither side achieved any lasting occupation of enemy territory beyond this border zone. It preceded a much more wide-ranging and dramatic final conflict in the early 7th century.
  • La guerra romano-sasanide del 572-591 fu una guerra combattuta tra l'Impero sasanide di Persia e l'Impero romano d'Oriente. Fu scatenata da rivolte pro-romane nelle aree del Caucaso sotto l'influenza persiana, anche se altri eventi contribuirono al suo scoppio. La guerra venne combattuta nel Caucaso meridionale e in Mesopotamia, estendendosi anche all'Anatolia orientale, alla Siria e all'Iran settentrionale.
