Best Answer

Asia Minor was the name the Romans gave to western Turkey. It had been the Greek kingdom of Pergamon which became an ally of Rome. The last king of Pergamon, Attalus III, bequeathed the lands of the kingdom to Rome in 133 BC. The consul Manius Aquillius created the Roman province of Asia Minor after suppressing a rebellion by Attalus' son Eumenes II, who proclaimed himself king, in 129 BC.
