Alexander the Great was an ancient Macedonian King who lived during the fourth century BC and established one of the largest empires in ancient history through his conquests. He is remembered for his tactical prowess and leadership abilities, which enabled him to conquer much of the known world during his lifetime

During his reign from 336 - 323 BC, Alexander ruled over most of Europe, parts of northern Africa and even reached as far east as India. He established Greek cities throughout these regions which formed part of his empire

After his death and long after his empire had been dissolved, elements of civilization introduced by Alexander still exist today in many areas throughout Asia and North Africa. His lasting influence on politics, art and culture are also still visible in many countries today

During his campaigns he fought a number of famous battles such as Gaugamela (331 BC), Issus (333BC) and Hydaspes (326BC). Even when outnumbered or facing unfavorable terrain conditions, Alexander was often able to use tactics superior than those used by opponents to gain victory
