Alexander III of Macedon (20/21 July 356 BC – 10/11 June 323BC), commonly known as Alexander the Great (Greek: ?????????? ??????, Alexandros ho MegasKoine Greek: [a.lek.san.dros home.gas]), was a king (basileus) of theAncient Greek kingdom ofMacedon[a]and a member of the Argead dynasty. He wasborn in Pella in 356 BC andsucceeded his father Philip II to the throneat the age of twenty. He spent most of his ruling years on anunprecedented military campaignthrough Asia and northeast Africa, and he had created one of thelargest empires of theancient world by the age of thirty, stretching from Greece tonorthwestern India.[1][2]He was undefeated in battle and is widely considered one ofhistory’s most successful military commanders.[3]During his youth, Alexander was tutored by Aristotle untilthe age of 16. After Philip’s assassination in 336 BC, he succeededhis father to the throne and inherited a strong kingdom and anexperienced army. Alexander was awarded the generalship of Greeceand used this authority to launch his father’s Panhellenic projectto lead the Greeks in the conquest of Persia.[4][5]In 334 BC, he invaded the Achaemenid Empire(Persian Empire) and began a series ofcampaigns that lasted ten years. Following the conquest ofAnatolia, Alexanderbroke the power of Persia in a series of decisive battles, mostnotably the battles of Issus and Gaugamela. Hesubsequently overthrew Persian King Darius III and conqueredthe Achaemenid Empire in its entirety.[b]At that point, his empire stretched from the Adriatic Sea to theIndus River.He sought to reach the “ends of the world and the Great Outer Sea”and invaded India in 326 BC,winning an important victory over the Pauravas at theBattle of the Hydaspes.He eventually turned back at the demand of his homesick troops.Alexander died in Babylon in 323 BC, thecity that he planned to establish as his capital, without executinga series of planned campaigns that would have begun with aninvasion of Arabia. In the yearsfollowing his death, a series of civil warstore his empire apart, resulting in the establishment of severalstates ruled by the Diadochi, Alexander’ssurviving generals and heirs.Alexander’s legacy includes the cultural diffusion andsyncretism which hisconquests engendered, such as Greco-Buddhism. Hefounded some twenty cities that bore hisname, most notably Alexandria in Egypt.Alexander’s settlement of Greek colonists and the resulting spreadof Greek culture in theeast resulted in a new Hellenisticcivilization, aspects of which were still evident in thetraditions of the Byzantine Empire in themid-15th century AD and the presence of Greek speakers incentral and far eastern Anatoliauntil the 1920s. Alexander became legendary as a classical hero inthe mold of Achilles, and hefeatures prominently in the history and mythic traditions of bothGreek and non-Greek cultures. He became the measure against whichmilitary leaders compared themselves, and military academiesthroughout the world still teach his tactics.[6][c]He is often ranked among the most influential people in humanhistory.[7]
