Explanation:

Alexander III of Macedon was an ancient Greek king of Macedon, member of the Argead dynasty. He is remembered by the fact that, by the age of 30, he had created one of the largest empires in the history of the world, stretching from Greece to India, across western Asia and northeast Africa. Moreover, he was never defeated in battle.

One of his most successful conquests was that of the Achaemenid Empire (Persia). He conquered Anatolia, won the battles of Issus and Gaugamela and eventually overthrew King Darius III. He defeated the powerful king in Abydos.
