How did Alexander the Great combine the tactics of the Persians and the Greeks to produce a superior army?
Greek armies were basically foot soldiers, Although armoured infantry who fought in solid formations (the phalanx) were superior to the unarmoured Persians, the latter had the advantage of strong cavalry, so Alexander acquired mercenary cavalry forces. He also added mobile light infantry who filled the gaps and were a link between the phalanx and the cavalry. This topped the Persians who tried to establish their own armoured infantry to match his, but they did not come up to the same standard and failed at the crucial battle of Gaugamela.

What was Rome's military strength during the First Punic War and what was its weakness?
The Carthaginians were a sea power, Rome a land power. To counter this Rome built a fleet of warships and mounted its infantry on board, using a boarding plank (harpax) to capture enemy ships using infantry tactics against the Carthaginian naval ramming tactics. And they were of course, superior in land battles.
Did the ancient Greeks do archery?
Yes, the ancient Greeks practiced archery, although it was not as prominent in their military tactics as in other cultures like the Persians or Scythians. Archers were used in battles, particularly by mercenary forces and in certain city-states like Crete, where archery was more developed. The Greeks also engaged in archery for sport and recreation, with various references to archery in literature and mythology. However, their primary focus was often on heavy infantry and hoplite warfare.
