The Byzantine empire existed nearly 1,125 years.

<span>The Byzantine Navy was the first to employ a terrifying liquid in naval battles. 
</span>
<span>The Byzantine Empire was mainly comprised of an array of small towns and seaports connected by a developed infrastructure. 
</span>
In 590 B.C., Byzantium was destroyed by the Persians. It was later rebuilt by the Spartans, and then fought over by Athens and Sparta until 336 B.C. From 336 to 323 B.C., it was under the control of the famous Greek general, Alexander the Great<span>. After the death of Alexander, Byzantium finally regained its independence.
</span>

The origins of Byzantium are clouded by mystery, but for our list we will follow the generally accepted version. Around 660 B.C., a Greek citizen, Byzas, from the town of Megara near Athens, consulted the oracle of Apollo at Delphi. Byzas requested advice on where he should found a new colony, since the mainland of Greece was becoming overpopulated. The oracle simply whispered, “opposite the blind.”

The total area of Alexander III’s empire stretched from
Karolina [17]

The correct answer is - A( Greece to the Indus River.

Alexander II of Macedon (Alexander the Great), during his reign created the biggest empire that the world had ever seen until than, and the Macedonian Empire was stretching on the area between the western parts of the Balkan Peninsula to the Indus River in the northwestern part of India.

Alexander III of Macedon was a genius military tactician, and very often, with much smaller army, managed to defeat the opposition. Also, there has to be given a big credit to his father, Philip II of Macedon, who reformed the Macedonian army and economy, and also managed to invade and put in control the biggest enemies of Macedon, the Greek city-states that despised them.

Note: I wrote from the western parts of the Balkan Peninsula, instead of Greece, because there was not a Greek country, but just city-states, so the western part of the Macedonian Empire were the territories of Macedon, Illiria, and Thessaly.
