The king who led his army to the north was Alexander the great. He was the king of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon, and he is considered one of the most successful military commanders in history. He is known for his strategic and tactical military genius, and for his expansive conquests. Alexander's invasion of the Persian Empire began in 334 BC, when he crossed the Hellespont with his army. He then marched north to Anatolia, where he defeated the Persian forces at the Battle of Granicus. He continued north, conquering regions of the Persian Empire including the Libyans, Phoenicians, and Syrians. He eventually reached the limits of the Persian Empire, and reached the western shores of the modern-day Caspian Sea. He then turned south and conquered the Babylonians, Susiana, and the Persians. Finally, he marched east, and eventually reached India.
