i had to write a persuasive essay about alexander the great and whether or not he was really "great" tell me what you guys think if you feel like reading it, its 4 1/2 pages double spaced D:! and if you see mistakes please tell me :o and if anyone of you have seen the movie tell me what you think about it too, cause i was wondering if i should check it out There is an everlasting debate concerning whether or not Alexander the Great was truly great. There is no doubt in my mind that Alexander is deserving of this title. Historians determined that he was able to accomplish more in his twelve years of ruling than any other leader throughout history. For instance, his superior war tactics and bravery on the battlefield allowed him to conquer an area of land that stretched for thousands of miles. In addition, Alexander's conquests unified his conquered lands to create a blended culture that led to the Hellenistic civilization. Finally, his encouragement for learning and the arts led to many advances that are still important to society today. To sum up, Alexander was able to attain the goals that his father desired, and through his actions he has earned the right to be known as Alexander the Great. :arrow: To start off, Alexander was not only phenomenal at developing tactics for his men, but he was also a courageous warrior. Instead of being scared to lose his life in battle, Alexander was the most willing warrior to engage in combat. In fact, some of his opposing enemies showed their cowardice, such as the emperor Darius III who fled from two battles with Alexander (movie). However, he knew that in order to win his battles he would have to do much more than simply overpower his rivals. Alexander the Great was a very imaginative leader who was capable of adapting to different situations. When devising tactics, he studied his opponents and how they would most likely act, then looked for a weakness in their plan. By using these exploits, he was able to defeat his opponents even when he was greatly outnumbered. In addition, Alexander's use of cavalry was one of the keys to his success. He would send out a deadly wave of soldiers on horses to annihilate the opposition and claim victory. While he appeared to be fearless in battle, he also knew when to fall back if it ever became necessary. He wasn't going to have his troops slaughtered just to protect his self-image. He was very aware of his priorities as a leader, and this trait helped him career (source 1). Some historians say that Alexander was a ruthless alcoholic who didn't look after the welfare of his battalion (source 3), but actually he cared greatly for his troops. In fact, his troops respected him as a leader and as a friend. Alexander has even been said to become very close to some of his companions, such as his lifelong friend Hephaestion (movie). Through his conquests, Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire, Egypt, and many other small kingdoms along the way. In a short ruling period of only twelve years he was able to take control of more land than most leaders would've ever dreamed of having. For these reasons, Alexander has proven himself to be more than worthy for the Macedonians in battle. :arrow: Furthermore, Alexander was able to blend the different cultures of the people he conquered and eventually develop the Hellenistic civilization. Although Alexander was not alive to see any of this occur, his spread of the Greek culture unleashed great changes throughout the lands. In his conquests, Alexander founded over seventy cities, and at least twelve of those cities were named after him (movie). The generals who succeeded him helped settle these new cities by doing things such as building temples and holding athletic contests. In time, the local people of the cities and the ruling Greeks assimilated each other's ideas. Alexander wanted the cultures to blend, and he showed this in his lifetime when he married a Persian woman and urged his soldiers to do the same. After a while, the two cultures would eventually blend into one Hellenistic civilization (text). Alexandria, Egypt was said to be the center of the Hellenistic world. Because it was right on the Mediterranean Sea, the markets there had a wide variety of goods to offer from all over the area. Alexandria became the home to over a million people of all different backgrounds. This city contained elements such as the 440-foot tall Pharos lighthouse and the great Museum. The lighthouse was counted as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the Museum offered a place for curious people to come and learn. Also, women had more privileges than before, and now they were no longer restricted to their homes. Still, the women who had the most power were usually married to rulers or high government officials. While some say Alexander encouraged intermarrying with the Persians to create an elite society (source 2), his only plan was to have racial fusion and possibly have equality amongst his people (source 1). In short, Alexander the Great, with the help of his successors, was very successful in the growth and welfare of his ancient cities. :arrow: Last, Alexander had a personal interest in scientific investigation, and as a result the people in his Hellenistic cities made great advances in learning. New schools of philosophy were developed, such as Stoicism founded by a man named Zeno. The main goal of Stoicism was to accept what life brought to you by avoiding disappointment and desires. The Stoics praised equality and high moral standards to help lead to a better society (text). Using previous knowledge from Egyptians, Greeks, and Babylonians, Hellenistic thinkers brought many advances to society. In mathematics, Pythagoras developed his formula to calculate the relations of the sides of a right triangle (a+b=c). Aristarchus, an astronomer, was almost 2,000 years ahead of his time when he stated that the Earth rotated on its axis and orbited around the sun (text). The most famous Hellenistic scientist was Archimedes, who was excellent with physics that involved the lever and pulley system. He was able to use this system to draw a ship onto shore once. Even medicinal advances were made; the physician Hippocrates started to make diagnoses and even cure illnesses. During all of this, Rome became a powerful city in the Mediterranean region, and its influence on history was also tremendous (text). While some historians believe Alexander was a corrupt ruler who was only set on conquering vast amounts of land (source 2), it is quite clear that he made sure all of the cities that he founded wouldn't just develop, but would flourish tremendously and make an everlasting impact on society (source 1). In summation, the advances made by the people in the Hellenistic civilization had an astounding affect not only on their society, but also on our society today. :arrow: In conclusion, I believe there is no person throughout history more deserving of the title Great than Alexander the Great. Alexander deserves this title because of his intelligence and courageousness on the battlefield, his ability to set up cities all over his empire and have them thrive, and because the discoveries people made in his triumphant empire still greatly impact society today. With all of this evidence you can clearly see why Alexander the Great was truly a great person. *edit* indent doesn't work, used the arrows instead
