undefeated military commanders
This list includes important historical generals and admirals, rather than simply any commander who has never lost a battle for the sake of brevity.

During the rule of Darius I, the fourth Persian King of the Achaemenid Empire, the empire controlled over 44% of the world. After overthrowing the supposed usurer Guatama, Darius put down numerous rebellions before expanding the empire. One of his first and most notable victories was his conquest of Egypt. He then made his way through Afghanistan, Pakistan, and eventually to the Indus Valley, conquering the surrounding areas.
He also worked through parts of Europe taking control of Thrace and Macedonia. After his generals failed to conquer the rest of Greece during the Battle of Marathon, Darius planned on doing it himself but died of illness before he could, remaining undefeated himself.
Tiglath-Pileser III was a king of Assyria in the eighth century BC. Seizing the throne during a civil war, he killed the royal family and set to making extreme changes to the Assyrian government and society.
Considered one of the most successful military commanders in history, he stopped revolts before they could ever even start by establishing deportations of thousands of people throughout the empire. He is also renowned for conquering a vast amount of the world known to the Assyrians before his death.
Akbar The Great
Akbar the Great was the third Mughal emperor who ruled during the late sixteenth century. As a confident general, he conquered much of the Indian subcontinent. He also entirely changed the Mughal army to the Mansabdari system, which revolutionized the empire’s battle tactics.
Some of Akbar’s reforms included using fortifications, cannons, and elephants. He used these strategies to win battles through India, Central Asia, and the Indus Valley. His empire even reached Portugal, a kingdom which he clashed with throughout the 1570s. Akbar’s reign lasted almost 50 years.
