History in 20
Welcome back to the History in 20 Podcast!
This week we are looking at Alexander the Great (356-323 BCE), King of the Macedons, Persians, Greek Emperor and all-round incredible military general.
Alexander's legacy has left behind numerous cities called Alexandria, and his trusty steed Bucephalus was by his side from the age of 12 until shortly before Alexander's death.
Conquests across the Middle East established Alexander's Empire and the early Hellenistic Period, and battles with formidable forces of the Persian (or Achaemenid) Empire under Darius III established his military prowess.
