“Emil’s good at transfiguration, and we wrote the books ourselves. We wanted the girls to know how to read and write, after that we went on to write more subjects for the girls to learn, and Emil started writing stories for the girls to read at their leisure.” Lloyd heard the shower come on as Emil and the twins started taking one.

He did conquer much land and spread greek culture throughout Europe but not many people know what he did to his men in order to do this. One way that he torched his men to get what he wants is in Document D when the man went through all that work to get him his hat back after it falling into the water than killed him. He did this because in order to get the hat back without getting wet he would have to place it on his head. Since he placed in on his head he had to get it cut off because it says “he should not allow the head that had worn the royal head band to be safe” (Document D). He did this to show the rest of his men…

    Alexander The Great Legacy

    The Persian empire at its peak has long been seen as one of the largest wholes during the classical era, and few have rivaled its size. The land that Alexander the Great was able to conquer, however, was one of the few that served as an appropriate challenge. Around the time of 338 B.C.E through 323 B.C.E., Alexander's collected mass was a whole. Of a Greek origin, Alexander was taught by Aristotle, the great philosopher, and it can be inferred that he used the strategic methods learned, among other things, to assist him during his expansion. It was short lived, however, when he died of an unknown cause at an early age of thirty-three. Even though his empire crumbled, his legacy lived on. Multiple cities, strongly influenced by Alexander, erected,…

    Alexander the Great Essay 21

    On the day Alexander the Great, son of King Phillip II and Olympias, was born Phillip II captured the city of Potidaea, Phillip II’s general Parmenion won another important battle, and Phillip II’s horse won a race at Olympia. It was said that a son whose birth coincided with three victories would himself prove to be invincible. It was also said that Alexander descended from the Greek heroes and demi-gods Heracles and Achilles. During his kingship Alexander did very little to disprove these statements. Alexander the Great changed the known world in little more than a decade by founding over seventy cities, integrating Greek and Persian customs, spreading the ideas of democracy, and spreading the Greek language and culture throughout Asia. At the same time he caused Greek to be the language of the early Christian church and influenced future conquerors by military example.…
