The Origins of Alexander the Great

It all began when… Phillip II of Macedon led this small area of the Greek Peninsula to greatness. Improved the military through equipment innovations and adding heavy, well armored calvary. Such changes and aggressiveness on Phillip’s part allowed Macedon to expand in all directions.

Assassination In 336 BCE, a bodyguard of Phillip II assassinated his boss. The bodyguard tried to escape, however after tripping on a vine, Phillip’s other guards chased and killed rogue assassin. Many theories over the centuries question the motives of why Phillip was assassinated by this bodyguard… Rivalry? Love? Alexander the Great? His wife? Could the conspiracy have more impact than Phillip’s death?

Alexander III of Macedon Son of Phillip II and Olympias (Phillip’s 4th wife) According to legend, Alex tamed a horse from Thessaly, Bucephalas, at around age [remember this horse’s name :)] At age 13, he would famously start learning from Aristotle, while connecting with other Macedonian nobles, like Ptolemy (a famous future general). At age 16, Alex started repressing revolts and helping his father out expanding Macedon, creating the League of Corinth.

After Phillip II… Alexander continues on his fathers ways-expansion. By placing virtual control on all of the Greek Peninsula under the League of Corinth, stability was brought in some ways… WHY???? However, rebellions in the North and South proved to be problematic for Alex and his quest to continue conquering…

Lets settle this! In the Balkan Campaign, Alex starts by taking control of the Northern area first, called Thrace. In this, he destroys many small tribes of people and is able to wrestle down this large area with innovative military strategies. Next, Alex moves to the Southern area where the famous Battle of Thebes occurs. All the while, Alex had to maintain a balanced force of military forces in both the North and South… Why might this be impressive? What might all of this say about his personality?

Background to the Battle of Thebes (335BCE) Thebes, a pretty strong city-state in Boetia-Central Greece, reluctantly joined the League of Corinth. When Persian funds started infiltrating southern Greek city- states and rumors started that Alex died in a siege up North, Theban exiles in Athens went back to Thebes to revolt against Macedonian “control.” The Thebans settled at a citadel and started to attack Macedonians in the area.

The Battle of Thebes Hearing about the revolt in Thebes and other city- states starting to get agitated, Alex races down 300 miles of land in 2 weeks to squash the revolts. In the end, Thebes was completely burned to the ground. While Alex facilitated the defeat of Thebes, he left it to his men of the League of Corinth to decide what to do with the city… So, is Alex the hero or villain in this situation?
