Alexander the Great, also known as Alexander III of Macedon became king of Macedon after the death of his father King Philip II in 336 BCE. Alexander is known for both his military might and his diplomatic skills which aided in his expansion of the Macedonian Kingdom to an empire of a size his father had not even dreamed of. Alexander is recognised as a key figure in the spread of Greek culture and language throughout the ancient world, and his death sparked the beginning of the Hellenistic period which spanned from 323 - 31 BCE. After his death, his campaigns became legendary and later Greek and Roman generals learnt from his successes and failures and were influenced by his tactics.
