In ancient times, Alexander the great's success in taking over Persia can be accounted for in several ways. First, he was a tactical genius who was also daring, energetic, and masterful at inspiring his troops to perform at their best. Second, his troops were superbly trained, they were experienced, and both individually and as a group they were superior to their Persian opponents. Third, his Persian opponents were poorly led and had little reason to make sacrifices for the sake of the empire which they were asked to defend.
