Alexander the great. He would become one of the greatest conquerors of all time, in terms of the area he conquered and the total area of places named for him. One of the largest and most comprehensive libraries to ever exist was built in his honor at Alexandria. It was for this reason that Alexandria would be the center of scientific research for many centuries.

Why did Aristotle stop tutoring Alexander the Great?

Aristotle stopped tutoring Alexander the Great primarily due to a combination of political tensions and personal disagreements. After Alexander became king, he sought to expand his empire, which conflicted with Aristotle's philosophical ideals. Furthermore, Aristotle faced opposition in Athens, particularly from anti-Macedonian factions, which may have influenced his decision to distance himself from Alexander. Ultimately, the tutor-student relationship evolved as Alexander's ambitions grew, leading Aristotle to focus on his own philosophical pursuits.
