King & Supreme Commander
Macedonian Empire
Pella → Everywhere · 336 BC to Present
Inherited the throne at 20. United Greece. Destroyed the Persian Empire. Founded over 20 cities named after myself. Standard stuff.
Pharaoh
Egypt
Memphis & Alexandria · 332 BC to Present
Liberated Egypt from Persian rule. Founded Alexandria. The Oracle confirmed I am the son of Zeus-Ammon. No big deal.
Cavalry Commander
Macedonian Army
Chaeronea · 338 BC to 338 BC
Led the decisive cavalry charge at age 18 that crushed the Sacred Band of Thebes. My father wept with pride.
Legendary Deeds
Conquest of Persia
Defeated Darius III at Granicus, Issus, and Gaugamela. Burned Persepolis (I may have been drinking). Empire: acquired.
Siege of Tyre
They said their island city was impregnable. I built a causeway across the sea. Seven months. Worth it.
The Gordian Knot
Legend said whoever untied it would rule Asia. I cut it with my sword. Prophecy fulfilled. Next question.
Founding of Alexandria
Designed the greatest city in Egypt myself. Library coming soon. Will be the center of learning for centuries.
