After Gnaeus Pompeius implemented the first Client Kingdom policy in 64/63 BC the smallest local kings and rulers in Anatolia, became part of this element. Tarcondimotos I, who was considered the founding king of the Tarcondimotos, which emerged as a small dynasty in the Cilicia region in 100 BC, was one of the dynastic leaders who was granted the king title within the afore-mentioned policy implemented by Pompeius. Especially as of Cilicia was regulated as a Roman province, the Tarcondimotos Dynasty, located within the borders of the new province, was actively involved in Roman internal politics when necessary. In this study, there will be an evaluation of Tarcondimotos Dynasty’s becoming a party to the civil wars between Gnaeus Pompeius and Iulius Caesar from 49 to 45 BC; between the Triumvirans II and the Iulius Caesar killers in 42 BC; and the civil war between Marcus Antonius and Caesar Octavianus (Augustus) in 31 BC as an aspect of Rome’s sovereignty policy.
