Wars of Alexander the Great

mine are Lance’s (Alexander The Great), Hani’s (Battle of Thermopylae), and Declan’s (Athens). First, Lance’s presentation on Alexander the Great had the same theme as mine. Lance showed his theme of the rise and fall of Ancient Greece in a way that showed all the good aspects of Alexander. He showed how Alexander won every battle he founded and brought many good things to Greece. This enhanced my understanding of that theme because it helped understand that civilians can rise in war and in…

history there have been many great leaders that did great things for there people. Not many of these great leaders are well represented in today’s society. There are few people who do not know at least a little about Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great, but up until a few years ago almost no one knew who King Leonidas of Sparta was and still few people know who Cato the Elder is. Is it fair that these great men, men just as worthy of praise as Caesar and Alexander, are shunned and forgotten in…

The modern idea of slavery is that of a racially based enslavement. The slavery of the United States in the 19th century was based upon the belief that blacks were inferior to whites. This white supremacy provided a justification to the slave industry. The beliefs that defended enslavement were not always this way. In Ancient Greece, the philosopher Aristotle viewed the institution of slavery through a different justification. Aristotle viewed slavery as a fulfillment of natural order and…

Macedon came to the throne after a colossal defeat within a year of him coming to the throne by his brother Perdiccas III, within a year of coming to the throne Philip began to evolve a new Macedonian way of war. One of Philip’s great contributions was to create the army with which Alexander conquered the Persian Empire. He was the first Macedonian King to rearm the Macedonian infantry with a sarissa a long spear 18 feet long, nearly twice as long as the usual spear carried by the usual Greek…

The framework of the Hellenistic world can be seen during the life and reign of Alexander the Great. His role in developing the Hellenistic culture sprouts from his conquering of the Persian empire, and mixing the many cultures that were already present with Hellenic culture and ideas. This mixture of ideas moved the Hellenic’s three primary lenses of thought: humanism, idealism, and rationalism to a Hellenistic concept of three similar lenses: individualism, realism, and empiricism. This…

a painting of war that I anticipated to be similar to real life situation with nearby trees and grasses as it appears on the background. After all, it is significant to identify the purpose or message encoded in each image with careful inspection. I believed the purpose of the stele of Naram-Sin sculpture is to commemorate a victory over the Lullubi people, and the purpose of the Battle of Issus is similar to the stele of Naram-Sin which illustrate the victory of Alexander the Great over the…

This is a decent time when to pull back and take a gander at the time of farming developments (ca. 3500 B.C.E.–ca. 1750 C.E.) The most conspicuous extensive scale incline in this period of mankind 's history was the globalization of development. The primary wave—the First Civilizations— was at that point worldwide in the first place Civilizations ended up being delicate and helpless Mesopotamian city-states were consumed into bigger domains Indus Valley, Central Asian, and Norte Chico human…
