Croesus afterwards, in the course of many years, brought under his sway almost all the nations to the west of the Halys.

They were the following: the Lydians, Phrygians, Mysians, Mariandynians, Chalybians, Paphlagonians, Thynian and Bithynian Thracians, Carians, Ionians, Dorians, Aeolians and Pamphylians.
