I read the post. I learn that he is an undefeated warrior who changed the world in the past. He wants to revenge that the terrible attacks form that Persians has wrought under Darius the Great and Xerxes. The Greece weaken the Persian because of winning the heroic battles at Marathon, Salamis, and Plat.

Alexander was born at about July 20. 356 B.C.E. The exact date maybe created after the fact to match. Nevertheless, the date on which Philip heard news of the birth has coincide with the announcement to Philip of Parmenio's success in Illyria and the victory of his horse at the Olympic games.
Alexander has fair skinned, with a ruddy tinge to his face and chest. Plutarch stated that he had a pleasing scent. He likes all Macedonians, Alexander likes his liquor.
