However, it is the writer believes in order for a leader to be successful they must have goals and good communication with their team in order to be successful. This is why Alexander the Great won the battle against King Darius because she believed in his troops.…
Alexander the great wasn’t Alexander the fake. Alexander great was only 20 when he started to rule Macedonia(BGE). Around 336 B.C.E is when Alexander the great started to rule in place of his father Philip and rule Macedonia(BGE). When Alexander started to rule his main goal was to take down Persia and he succeed on doing that. Even though Alexander was able to take down Persia was he actually great? Alexander had great courage, leadership, and intelligence. These are shown by him being able to take out the strongest empire at the time, He was able to make one of the big empire and sustain it for 10 years after his death, and he was able to unify everyone he conquered with greece.…
Alexander was great because he conquered a country in the years 333BC, 332BC, 331BC, 331BC, 330BC, 327BC, 324BC and 323BC. This demonstrates that he was great because he used tactics that would defeat enemies. An example of a tactic he used is phalanx. Phalanx means “a body of Macedonian infantry drawn up in close order with shields touching and long spears overlapping”. This was good because he could easily besiege cities which helped him take over the Mediterranean. My own research shows that Alexander the Great took power over the countries Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Palestine, Egypt, northern Afghanistan and Iraq. This shows how Alexander the Great was so prodigious.…

He had some victories before reaching the Ganges river, which he intended to cross in order to conquer more of India”.…
“Alexander The Great Hero or Villain” By: Shelby Hammond-Helms I think that Alexander the Great is a hero because he had a lot of accomplishments and legacies that are important. Alexander the Great did do some bad things but most heroes do. I think that his accomplishments over ride his actions that were hurtful to other people. I think that his most important accomplishment is the Hellenistic culture. Alexander the Great founded the city Alexandria.…
Alexander the Great was, in many ways, an amazing ruler. He was not afraid to take a chance on someone or something that everyone else had given up on, and he was prepared to risk his safety to help his men. Alexander also proved to his men that he was strong and that he was prepared to die for his cause.…
In my opinion, Alexander the Great was a terrifying, barbaric villain who conquered many cities and changed many cultures so he could benefit by gaining more land, power and money. One reason I think he is a villain is the way he ruled people to obey him. For example after he conquered cities he sold 30,000 people into slavery and killed over 6,000 people to scare the people of Greece obey to him. He sold the slaves to the rich people so he can gain trust of the people.…
The Alexander portrayed by Arrian in his The Campaigns of Alexander, is an interesting and complex Alexander, a character that slowly grows, matures and evolves throughout his adventures in new lands. Arrian is able to give an in depth description of the battles Alexander took part in as well as the lands he traveled to, while at the same time describing Alexander’s character. He is able to describe how Alexander goes from an over-confident youth, with great dreams of grandeur, to an adult who remains almost the same but more wise, and then finally a sad shadow of his former self who finally dies in depression.…
Well, our opinion is that Alexander the Great is great. He was attacked by the Persian and he successfully defeated them. Alexander moved south along the eastern Mediterranean. Many cities surrender the Alexander the Great. Some of the men that was in the other armies that they were in, transferred to Alexander’s army. In 332 B.C.E Alexander entered the world of egypt, a country that had experienced on and off periods of Persian rule for two centuries. With Mediterranean and Egypt secured, the Persians were deprived of naval bases and Alexander was free to move inland to conquer the eastern half of the Persian Empire. Alexander had sources of 1 million troops to take over states and cities. Darius III on the other hand brought soldiers all over and even beyond his empire. Persian was on a rampage and Alexander continued to battle against them until they…

In conclusion, Alexander deserves the title of “The Great”. He deserves it because of his education, military accomplishments, and his courage.

Alexander was courageous in battle, and fought alongside his men. Yes, he did have some faults, but the positives outweigh the negatives. Alexander does deserve his title, and to say that he does not is unfair to him and what…

Alexander first led troops as a mere teenager and became king afterwards due to the assassination of his father. He decided to expand the Greek Empire, which his dad, King Philip, started but couldn't finish. At just the age of twenty years old, he set…
