This concept of a dynastic entity is similar to, but should not be confused with the Seleucid Empire, a political entity.
Seleucid Dynasty
The Seleucid Dynasty was founded in 312 B.C. by one of Alexander the Great's generals, Seleucid I Nicator, after the empire was split between the Diodochi. The Seleucid Dynasty ruled over much of Alexander's eastern domain, from Anatolia to (at it's greatest extent) Bactria. The dynasty finally collapsed to the rising Roman hegemony in the East in 63 B.C.
