Your question calls for an opinion, so I can only give mine. In my thinking Julius Caesar was much more successful than Alexander the Great. I base this on what the two leaders left to posterity. Caesar, for starters, had the common sense to make a will and designate an heir so his reforms and family name would continue. Alexander foolishly did no such thing and there was turmoil and division after his death and all his victories were for nothing, as there was no large Macedonian empire after he died. True, there was civil war after Caesar's death, but it was settled and Rome grew and prospered. Caesar also gave us numerous innovations and left us literature while Alexander left the world nothing except the historical fact that he was a great military leader.
