  • Emperor Nero

  • Emperor Tiberius

  • Emperor Hadrian

  • Philip the Arab

Answer

The Roman emperor compelled to accept a peace deal with Shapur I following the Battle of Misiche was Philip the Arab. This conflict marked a notable clash between the Romans and the Sassanid Persians, resulting in a Persian victory and substantial Roman territorial losses. Philip's acquiescence to the unfavorable terms imposed by Shapur aimed to secure peace rather than risk further military setbacks for the Roman Empire.
