You guys are getting way off topic.
But in terms of military system, a Rome vs Parthia is very interesting and worth discussing.
Rome (infantry based army) vs Parthia (a Cavalry based army)
The Parthian armies included two types of cavalry: the heavily-armed and armoured cataphracts and light brigades of mounted archers. For the Romans, who relied on heavy infantry, the Parthians were hard to defeat, as the cavalry was much faster and more mobile. On the other hand, the Parthians found it difficult to occupy conquered areas as they were unskilled in siege warfare. Because of these weaknesses, neither the Romans nor the Parthians were able to completely defeat each other
