The Hellenistic period was the period between the conquests of Alexander the Great to the conquest of Egypt, the last Hellenistic state which fell to the Romans,

Aristotle was a philosopher. Alexander got his military education from his father King Philip II of Macedonia, and was given by him the opportunity to exercise command while still in his teens.

Unlike may conquerors before, Alexander the Great allowed the local rulers of ares he conquered to continue ruling over their lands and practicing their own religions. This kept his conquered territories pacified and more trusting of his empire.

Alexander used religion to control his empire by saying her was the son of the main god in a religion.

Example: For the Greeks he said he was the son of Zeus.

Alexander has always been great but he was known just as The Great as People through out the world studied his life and history. He was more called the great by "teachers" and there students and it soon evolved into Alexander The Great.
