Thomas Jefferson´s Republicanism refers to the believe in virtue, with priority for the ¨plain folks¨ that referred to ordinary Americans. Jeffersonian Republicanism is deeply committed to American Republicanism, which means fighting against aristocracy and corruption. He advocated for liberty from government oppressions and relished the French Revolution. He was not an anarchist, but rather thought that the policies established during the 1790´s limited personal freedoms gave more power to the executive power; more than, according to Jeffersonian Republicanism, was not suppose to be. This ideology also feared a big military, and instead opted for a smaller size army of about 3,000 soldiers and only 6 naval ships. A few characteristics of Jefferson´s Republicanism is still visible to this day in America´s democratic culture; the fight against corruption and any form of Monarchy are still in use, as well as the individual freedoms. Besides being an American Founding Father, he was the main author of the Declaration of Independence. In conclusion, Thomas Jefferson´s Republicanism still dominates and guides American values and those believes are now what characterizes the United States around the world.

Explanation:
Philip II quickly reformed the Macedonian army when he got to power. One of the reason for this was that he saw the potential that the Macedonian Kingdom has, and that strong military will result in gaining new territories and lot of wealth. The Greeks kind of missed the rise of the Macedonian army north of them, and maybe didn't expected attack. Philip created the Macedonian Phalanx, equipped it with new specially made weapons, very long spears, and face to face short swords, making it also very mobile. After the conquering of Paionia, the cavalry became much stronger because the Paionian cavalry was included and was very strong. This resulted in military campaign against the Greeks in the south, and they were successful, which was seen with despise by the Greeks, as they saw the Macedonians as barbarians not worthy of even being slaves. Alexander III of Macedon (the Great) inherited the empire, and having an excellent base set by his father, and his great military mind, supported by experienced Macedonian and Paionian generals, resulted in expansion and conquest of lot of territories, creating the largest empire the world had seen until then, and the third largest ever.
