The Bosporan Kingdom waged a series of wars of expansion in the Cimmerian Bosporus and the surrounding territories from around 438 BC until about 355 BC. Bosporan expansion began after Spartokos I, the first Spartocid (and after whom the dynasty is named) took power and during his seven-year reign, established an aggressive expansionist foreign policy that was followed by his successors.
After becoming king of the Bosporan Kingdom in 389 BC, Leukon would later attack the city of Theodosia perhaps as revenge for the death of his father, who died at Theodosia that same year.

The song features a sample of "Can It Be All So Simple" by Wu-Tang Clan, hence its songwriters are also credited. [1]
The Battle of Labrytae (Ancient Greek: Μάχη τῶν Λαβρυτων) was a battle around 380 BC that occurred nearly directly after Octamasades usurped the Sindian throne from his father Hecataeus and attacked and took the city of Labrytae, presumably a city under Bosporan rule.
