King Philip II of Macedonia sought to conquer Greece to unify the region under Macedonian rule and enhance his political power. By controlling Greece, he aimed to secure resources and military alliances, which would strengthen Macedonia against external threats, particularly from Persia. Additionally, unifying Greece would allow him to establish a strong cultural and political legacy, ultimately paving the way for his son, Alexander the great, to expand the empire further.
