Alexander the Great

Answer:

Alexander the Great's tomb has yet to be discovered. Although his father's tomb (Phillip the Second) has been found in Vergina, Greece, Alexander's tomb was thought to be at the Siva Oasis in Egypt. Yet recent excavation projects have not verified this possibility.

Hope this helps.

nobody his empire got destroyed when he died.

Alexander became a hero, when he tamed the wild horse which no one could tame , at his fathers Kig Philips court. Alexander noticed thhat the horse was scared of its own shadow , so he calmly took it and let the shadow fall on the back of the horse. And the horse became tame. It was this horse that took Alexander on the wars to conquer the world.

He didn't, Darius' own nobles killed him. Alexander was angry at such and act and killed the killers.

Some of the achievements of Alexander the Great are the victory at Issus, the victory at Gaugamela, and having the largest empire in history.

Genghis khan because wgen he was alive he won all of the battles and he used to own Asia and half of Europe but then Genghis khan died and that's why mongolias so snall now.

By the way Genghis khans real name is timujin.

And dads name is yisugei. He was the hero. But he was poisoned by the tartars and,many people tryed to kill Genghis khan but he escaped and survived but he died when he was hunting. He wasnt killed. He slipped.

It is not clear when the book of Deeds of Alexander was published. But secondary authors do not quote it to describe the events after 329, and it is possible that Callisthenes considered the death of Bessus, the last leader of the Persians, to be a fitting climax of his history. The book of Deeds of Alexander is now lost, but underlies much of what was written later.

There are many ancient sources on the career of the Macedonian conqueror Alexander the Great: the Library of world history of Diodorus of Sicily, Quintus Curtius Rufus' History of Alexander the Great of Macedonia, a Life of Alexander by Plutarch of Chaeronea and the Anabasis by Arrian of Nicomedia are the best-known. All these authors lived more than three centuries after the events they described, but they used older, nearly contemporary sources, that are now lost.

In a place in Egypt that bares his name, it is called Alexandariea .

• He destroyed Persepolis
• attacked Tyre, killing 10,000 people and enslaving 30,000
• treated his slaves harshly
• ordered the murder of several close advisers, and possibly organized the murder of his father, Phillip II, with his mother

It was initiated by Alexander the Great in the latter part of the 4th Century BCE.

yes, it would have, because he was very powerful and determined, he may of conquered the rest of Europe!

1) He was undefeated in battle,

2) He was tutored by Aristotle,

3) His father was assassinated,

4) His armies made vast conquests,

5) He was widely known for the cultural diffusion of 'his empire'.

Alexander was the son of King Philip II of Macedon. In 336 BC Philip was assassinated at the wedding of his daughter Cleopatra to her uncle King Alexander of Epirus. Theories abound regarding the motives behind the killing, but a common story presented the assassin as a disgraced former lover of the king

Alexander the Great built his empire in the latter half of the 4th century B.C.E. Born in 356 B.C.E. and ascending to the Macedonian (and Greek) throne in 336 B.C.E., he began his world conquest in 334 B.C.E. only to die just over ten years later, in 323 B.C.E.

The people he conquered did not resist or revolt while the Greeks held power.

He figured out his father's horse was scared of his shadow by noticing which way it looked when it was getting scared.

When it revolted, he captured the city and sold its inhabitants into slavery.

When he became king, he already owned Macedonia and Greece. When he conquered Persia, he crowned himself king of Persia as well. As any people will do when occupied, the Persians gradually became more and more Macedonian, (a Greek culture) using phalanx-capable soldiers, speaking and writing Greek, using Greek names, ect. In this way, he united the Macedonian and Persian cultures.

After conquering an empire Alexander the Great and his Macedonian Army would remain there for a time. After visiting Troy he was able to win over many allies and recruiting many men for his army. He did this by posing as a savior to the people.

He took his army into India, imagining that was the end of the world in the east, and he could claim to have conquered the world to the east. He had plans to go to western Europe and conquer there to, and so claim to have conquered the world

Eratosthenes is a Greek Philosopher whom ideas were way out of his time. He discovered two important things about the earth, one in which is that the world is shape like a sphere in which we know today because of satellite imagery but in that time they did not have the the thought nor the technology.The next thing he discovered is the Earth's circumference which was only off by 185 miles. Another important fact is that Eratosthenes was in charge of the library in the city of Alexandria.

Alexander was first tutored by the strict Leonidas, a relative of his mother, and by Lysimachus of Acarnania. In early childhood Alexander was raised in the manner of noble Macedonian youths, learning to read, play the lyre, ride, fight, and hunt.

When Alexander was 13, Philip began to search for a tutor and considered such academics as Isocrates and Speusippus, the latter offering to resign to take up the post. In the end, Philip chose Aristotle and provided the Temple of the Nymphs at Mieza as a classroom. In return for teaching Alexander, Philip agreed to rebuild Aristotle's hometown of Stageira in central Macedonia near the eastern coast of the peninsula of Chalcidice, which Philip had razed, and to repopulate it by buying and freeing the ex-citizens who were slaves or pardoning those who were in exile. Many new structures were built at this time, including an aqueduct, two shrines to Demeter. and many houses.

Greece was mostly poor land, and the Greek city-states each had limited land, unable to support a growing population. So the surplus populations were periodically sent of by ship to seize new land and establish new city-states. This way, there were over 2,000 independent city-states around the littorals of the Mediterranean and Black Seas.
