Why is Alexander the Great remembered? People can not understand one thing Alexander did not just change whole Greece’s history but all the world’s history.
Greeks at that time had formerly fought numerous times with Persians. The small Greek megacity countries in Thrace, Asia Minor etc. were veritably spooked of the Persians. So, Athenians created the Delian league.
Alexander on the other hand, did not just, conquer and make Persians leave from moment’s Turkey, he literally dissolved the whole conglomerate.
A veritably veritably other important thing, were the metropolises he made and named after him( Alexandria the biggest megacity of the given world that time), the fiefdoms he created( for case Greco Bactrian Kingdom).
After his death, a veritably important part played his successors, the diadochoi. Epirus for illustration, who had Pyrrhus( Greek) won some battles with the Romans, also the Ptolemaic Kingdom( Egypt) showed resistance.
Last but not least, Alexander was a great commander and leader. Literally Julius Caesar studied about Alexander( just like Napoleon) and went to his grave.
All by each, Alexander the great was a great general and leader who changed the whole history, not only for Greece but also the whole world.
