Is great Alexander 's last name?

I'm not entirely sure about this, but I think during the Hellenistic age you didn't actually have a last name; you were known by your first name and then your town or city name. Like Alexander of Macedon(ia). His father is actually known like that - Philip of Macedon (or King Philip II, whatever). --SabraKadabraNo one has ever discovered that. People like him weren't called by their last names , So no one knows what his is .

When did Alexander the great conquer Persia?

Never. The famous Battle of Chaeronea that united Greece under Macedonian Hegemony took place in 338 BCE. Philip II of Macedon and his son Alexander led an army of Greek allies to defeat the opposing Athenian forces and the Greeks who allied with them.Whenever a Greek state became supreme, that supremacy entailed the depression of some states and the dependency or subjection of others. As the eminent historian, J.B. Bury writes, "Athens was reduced to a secondary place by Macedon, and Thebes fared still worse; As the hegemony or first place among Greek states had passed successively from Athens to Sparta, and to Thebes, so now it passed to Macedon". After Philip II's assassination, his famous son Alexander the Great would go on with the Corinthian League that was forged from this battle, to conquer the Persian empire all the way to India.
