How it ended, as its article says

Dissolved. Read from the article's section “lead” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.

Afterwards the kingdom disintegrated: southern and central Thrace were divided among three Odrysian kings, while the northeast came under the dominion of the kingdom of the Getae.
