The famous Battle of Chaeronea took place in 338 BCE. Philip II of Macedon and his son Alexander led an army of Greek allies to defeat the 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.

Alexander the Great No. Philip II of Macedon, Alexander's father, conquered Greece before Alexander became the Great. Alexander was 16 at the time, but he did help his father win the Battle of Charonaea. After becoming King of the Macedonian Empire (Macedonia, Thrace, Greece), Alexander put down a revolt by the city-state of Thebes, and he had Thebes destroyed, but otherwise Greece was already conquered.
