Alexander III the Great, the King of
Macedonia and conqueror of the
Persian Empire is considered one
of the greatest military geniuses of
all times. He was inspiration for
later conquerors such as Hannibal
the Carthaginian, the Romans
Pompey and Caesar, and
Napoleon.  Alexander  was son of
Philip II, King of Macedonia, and
Olympias, the princess of
neighboring Epirus.  Having
conquered the entire Persian
Empire he made Macedonia the
largest world empire, stretching
from Europe to India.  For the next
three centuries the Macedonians
ruled most of this vast area, ending
with Cleopatra VII in 30 BC, the last
Macedonian ruler of Egypt.  This
period of 300 years is known today
as "Hellenistic".
