King Philip II of Macedon chose not to destroy Athens after his victory at the Battle of Chaeronea in 338 BCE because he sought to unify Greece under his rule rather than create further enmity. Recognizing Athens' cultural and intellectual significance, he aimed to win its loyalty and support for his broader ambitions. By sparing the city, he hoped to gain influence over its political and military resources, ultimately strengthening his position in the region. Additionally, he wanted to establish a legacy as a benevolent ruler rather than a tyrant.
