Abstract
The frame of this article is about the vibrant era of the first clashes in the Balkans between the Kingdom of Macedonia and the rising hegemonic power in the West, Rome. It explains the experience of war after the point of view of the soldiers and the military potential of each political entity that eventually psychologically influences the soldiers in battle. This article is the basis of more extensive research on the subject.
