		Alexander the Great, King of Macedon 336-323 BC, was arguably the most successful military commander of ancient history, conquering most of the known world before his death.
		Alexander is also known in Zoroastrian Middle Persian works such as the Arda Wiraz as "the accursed Alexander" due to his destruction of the Persian Empire and its capital Persepolis.
		Alexander integrated non-Greeks into his army and administration, leading some scholars to credit him with a "policy of fusion." He encouraged marriage between Greeks and non-Greeks, and practiced it himself.

	The Rise and Fall of Alexander the Great
		His great character and values were two of the things that made Alexander the Great a prominent individual in history.
		One of Alexander's finest acts was when he took his enemy Darius' mother and other family members when he conquered Persia: thinking that Alexander was going to kill them, Darius was much relieved to find that Alexander treated them royally and with respect as guests of his kingdom.
		Alexander also lived through various other serious, as well as minor, wounds and illnesses along his conquests ranging from a bird dropping a stone on his head to getting a mild case of hypothermia while crossing the Cydnus.

		To spur things along, Alexander even introduced a delegate from Ephesus in Asia Minor who claimed to be speaking on behalf of "the Greeks of Asia" and who urged Alexander "to undertake a war of liberation" on their behalf.
		Nevertheless, Alexander had his problems, not the least of which was a shortage of funds with which to pay his mercenaries.
		The question for Alexander, of course, was whether to retreat to secure his home base or to go forward and take on the entire Persian Empire, a vast conglomerate stretching from the Red Sea to the Caspian, from the Hellespont to beyond the Hindu Kush.

		Of the four great battles Alexander fought in the course of his brilliant military career, the Battle of the Granicus, fought in May 334 BC, was the first--and the one in which he came closest to failure and death.
		In midafternoon on the third day of marching, Alexander was not far from the Granicus when his scouts reported that the Persian army was drawn up on the east bank of the river.
		As the Macedonian army marched toward the river through open country, Alexander placed his heavy infantry in the center in two tandem columns, heavy cavalry on each flank and the baggage train in the rear; he then advanced in semideployment behind a heavy screen of light cavalry and infantry.
