No, each of the independent Greek city-states had its own army. He recruited the numbers he needed from them.
In order to conquer the Persian Empire, King Philip II of Macedonia needed a well-trained and disciplined army, sufficient financial resources to fund military campaigns, and a cohesive strategy to overcome the vast Persian land and navy forces. Additionally, he needed diplomatic alliances with other Greek city-states to ensure support and cooperation.
The Macedonians, a Hellenistic people to the North of Greece, conquered an army of Greek city-states at the Battle of Chaeronea in the Fourth Century BC. Athens and Sparta were among them, but the Greak coalition was led by Thebes which had replaced Sparta as the leading political force in Greece, just as Sparta had earlier destroyed the power of Athens. The Macedonians were well-organized, skilled at war, and led by the able king Philip of Macedon. Greece remained a Macedonian territory until the arrival of the Romans, whereupon both became Roman territory.
King Menes!
the senapati was the general of the army and helped the king in battles
He erected many libraries. Well that and also Alexander the great was the son of Philip, King of Macedonia. Philip conquerd the Spartans and then began plans to invade Persia. However, he was murdered by his bodyguard, with the possibility of Alexanders involvement. Alexander the Great was very intersted in Greeek literature and his tutor was the famous Aristotle.Alexander the Great picked up where his father left off and conquered Persia, then Egypt then proceeded to march through Asia until India, where his army stopped. At 32, he caught a fever and died. He spread Hellenistic culture because of the multitude of lands he had conquered where Helllenistic culture had began to seep into the other countries culture. That is a very brief account of Alexander the Great!
He wanted to use their army to crush the Persians.
The Macedonian army (if you want to be specific, the Macedonian military under King Philip).

His father King Philip II of Macedonia gave him control of a province and other military duties as an army commander.
He wanted to stabilize Greece and with a united Greek army under Macedonian hegemony begin his campaign against the common Greek foe, Persia.
King Philip of Macedon conquered the rest of Greece through a combination of military tactics, diplomacy, and creating alliances with various city-states. He used advanced military strategies, such as the phalanx formation, to defeat his opponents in battle, while also using marriage alliances and political manipulation to gain control over the Greek city-states.
Philip II was King of the ancient kingdom state of Macedonia and Alexander the Great's father. His name is made up of two greek words, ''Philos''=(Friend) + ''Ippos'' =(Horse), so his name would translate into English as:''Friend of Horses''. Macedonia was one of the ancient Greek city-states, like Athens, Sparta, Molossoe (Epirus) etc. As a Greek, he was married to a Greek princess, Olympia of Molossoe, from another Greek city-state, west of the Greek city-state of Macedonia.
holy army, 150 gay partners 300 men army, part of the greek army. assembled by gao ji dasi. and captured Philip 11. at age 15, who was the father of Alexander the great king of Macedonia.
Philip II never conquered any countries. What he did do was unite the Greek city states so that upon his death his successor Alexander the Great was able to take on and defeat the Persian army and ultimately the entire empire.
The Hellenic (Greek) world was not unified. It was a collection of city-states, some of which formed leagues in self-defence. Alexander's father conquered many of them in mainland Greece, and was made hegemon (leader) but still did not unify them in any sense of a central government or being king. He was King of Macedonia and Hegemon of Greece. On his assassination, his son Alexander was acclaimed King of Macedonia by its army, and he assumed the Hegemony of Greece in his father's place.
Famous Macedonia (Greek: Μακεδονία ξακουστή, Makedonía xakustí) is a military march, often regarded as the unofficial anthem of the historical Macedonia, and used by the Hellenic Army since the Balkan Wars.
Yes, they did. Northern Greece use to be Macedonia. Solun (or thessaloniki now) use to be Macedonia's capital. It was very wrong and unfair but it happened. (I learnt this in history) Greek army's use to beat or even kill Macedonains if they spoke anything but greek. Even today northern Greece is still classed as Macedonia, but under greek occupation.
