Question

Which of the following is an example of cultural diffusion from Alexander’s conquest of Persia?

Answer 1

Answer:

One benefit of cultural diffusion is the ability to communicate with others. When people have a common language and alphabet, it’s much easier to talk to others and share ideas. It also provides an opportunity to spread new ideas and discover different ways of thinking. A drawback of cultural diffusion is the loss of cultural identity, traditions, and languages. People could quickly lose the customs, celebrations, and stories that made their culture rich and unique.

Answer 2

The correct answer is He married a Persian woman and encouraged his soldiers to marry Persian women as well.

Alexander's legacy includes the cultural diffusion of his achievements and the rise of Hellenistic culture as a result of his military campaigns.

Alexander's impressive record was largely due to his clever use of terrain, phalanx and cavalry tactics, bold and adaptable strategy, and the fierce loyalty of his troops.
