Philip II of Macedonia

Philip II of Macedonia became king at the age of 23 in 359 B.C. in a very difficult situation. (Secunda 4). Barbarians in the northern part of Macedonia are threatened and cities in southern Greece are threatened (4). Since Philip had to take action immediately, it was necessary to make an army (4). He spent a certain period at Tevez and gained military knowledge from "Epaminondad, one of the highest generals at the time" ("Philips"). He used a 16 feet long spear "Sarisa" ("Phillips") with a wider range of Greek weapons to arm the army.

Alexander the Gray was born in the capital of Macedonia in the city of Pera, on the day of controversy on July 20 or 21, 356. He was the son of King Olympias, the wife of Philip II of the Republic of Macedonia and the wife of Philip II of the daughter of King Eppels. Many legendary myths and legends are developing around the birth of Alexander the Great and young people. Ancient Greek biographer Plutarco talks about her marriage about Mary Philippe's marriage. Her womb was struck by thunder, spreading the wilderness to the vast expanse of the world, demonstrating the prophecies of Alexander the Great, but it proved to be mysterious. Olympia said the dream was a dream of Philip II, believing that his son Alexander was a sacred bloodline. Alexander had a wonderful nature for everything he wanted to do when he was young.

The lives of Philip II and Alexander the Great are intertwined in many ways. Philip II concentrated in ancient Macedonia. Philip II also set up an unprecedented capacity and elastic army, conquered the Greek peninsula and was ready to conquer the Persian Empire that merged with the Greek-Macedonian army. When Alexander conquered the great Persian Empire, he actually led the invading army. Alexander brought his army to the modern Indian border. This was the place where Alexander founded the monarchy and the empire, despite its division, it formed political culture and religious circles of Hellenistic era. Alexander drove the engine made by his father, but if Alexandre did not do it, the outcome of Philips II would be the former Macedonian ruler

Alexander is the son of Philip II of Macedonia and Olympia. Olympia is the orphan of King Epirus, descendants of Achilles. Philip and Olympia married in 357 BC. Philli began to rule Macedonia between 359 and 336 BC. After the Macedonians lost to the hands of the Illyrians, he held power. Philip tried to unify and strengthen all Macedonia. Philip was thought that the nobleman's son was able to receive education at the king's court. This exercise further helped Philip strengthen the alliance by creating the natural loyalty that Philip's son felt. In 338 BC, Philip induced his army to fight Athens and the army. He was far outnumber, but he was able to suppress opposition by using a square. After his victory, Sparta was the only country in Greece that was not dominated by Macedonia.
