Alexander the Great and Philip of Acarnania

Alexander the Great, demonstrating his trust in his physician Philip by drinking a medicinal draught prepared by him after receiving a letter from General Parmenio indicating that Philip is poisoning him, in the background are tents with soldiers and horses. Alexander III of Macedon (356-323 BC) was a Greek king. In 334 BC, he invaded Persian-ruled Asia Minor and began a series of campaigns that lasted ten years. Alexander broke the power of Persia in a series of decisive battles, overthrew the Persian King Darius III and conquered the entirety of the Persian Empire. He was undefeated in battle and is considered one of history's most successful commanders. His campaigns greatly increased contacts and trade between East and West, and vast areas to the east were significantly exposed to Greek civilization and influence. In June 323 BC, Alexander died a painful death in the palace of Nebuchadnezzar II, at age 33. Oil painting by Benjamin West, the elder.
