Alexander the Great was important to history because he changed the history and fate of many tribes and he also had his people kneel before him. First of all, he had his people kneel before him. This wasn’t unusual to the Persians who would kneeled before people and leaders all the time, but for the Greeks this was unusual because they only knelt before statues of gods not kings. Generals considered this an action of indignity to kneel before a man. This is important because today we see many people who kneel before other people. This wasn't common in most greek civilizations to kneel before a person, but today we see people kneel before rulers people that believe in human gods and all sorts of different people in todays society.
