I think this question is easy to answer. Another question is, why do we remember our loved ones? This means Alexander the Great was loved by his people. He was a true leader, one who fought to achieve a purpose. He never let his people down, and he fought most of his battles with them.

Alexander really changed the ancient world. Alexander was a strong person who fought across different continents like Asia, Africa, and Europe in a bid to conquer the known world. His motive to achieve this was not a selfish one. He wanted a world where people would see one another as one, a world that would share the same cultural values.

Although he had the tendency to become a tyrant, he wasn't described as a tyrant. He demonstrated this when he defeated king Porus but still spared him. He was a true leader, and he led his people with great understanding.

He is known to be very youthful and energetic which explains why he has the tendency to do different tasks well. He did his tasks in a nonchalant manner that is very different from how people used to do tasks, especially at that time. He is a conquerer which might make him a tyrant but for a lot of people, he was able to bring back his kingdom. He was able to make friends and make people loyal to him too.

Alexander the Great was a great leader in Greece. Even though his reign took place a long time ago, he is still popular today. His name is recognized by common people who are not into history. This is because of all of the things that Alexander the Great did during his time.

Alexander the Great was a great leader in Greece. Even though his reign took place a long time ago,

He was born in 356 BC and died in 323 BC. By today’s standards, that is not a long time to live, but he did a lot of good for Greece during the time he was alive. He fought many battles to acquire land, but then he was able to spread his ideas to other parts far away. If something was influenced by Alexander the Great, it became known as Hellenistic.
