5. Why does John Greene argue Alexander became great?​

History
1 answer:
qaws [65]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • His accomplishments
  • His impact on the world
  • Stories told about him
  • Because we decided that he was great

Explanation:

In his video about Alexander the Great and how he became great, John Greene gave reasons for how Alexander became great.

The first was his accomplishments. Alexander the Great conquered the largest empire at the time, Persia, which was a massive undertaking considering that the Persians had almost conquered Greece sometime before.

His impact on the world was another reason for his greatness. With his feats celebrated and passed through time, so many adored and wanted to be like him from Julius Caesar to Napoleon Bonaparte. During his conquests he also created cities and settlements that would ensure his name lasted through the ages such as Alexandria in Egypt.

The third reason for his greatness was the stories told about him. Sometimes these stories bordered on mythology littered with feats of heroism and and it served to paint the picture of a great young general who conquered the world with sheer guts and brilliance.  

The fourth reason was that humanity decided that he was great by choosing to idolize him so much so that he became the role model of many.  Even in villages in Africa and South America it is possible to find people named Alexander. Such is our admiration of him. This is why he is Great.

One result of the invention of the. Was the increased speed of communication from one area to another far away.
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

<h2>Telegraph</h2>

Explanation:

Telegraph is the answer I would suggest, as that was the first invention that greatly accelerated the speed of communication.  Following that came the telephone, and then after that, cell phones and  the Internet.  All of these communication tools have accelerated the rate and amount of global communication.  But the first step in that direction was the telegraph.

The telegraph was developed in the first part of the 19th century by Samuel Morse and other inventors.   Morse also developed a code (which has been named after him) for communicating messages via short and long   electronic signals over telegraph wires.   Morse sent his first telegraph message in 1844.  By 1866 telegraph lines had been laid across the Atlantic Ocean for communication between the USA and Europe.

As summarized by the <em>History Channel, "</em>The telegraph revolutionized long-distance communication. ... Although the telegraph had fallen out of widespread use by the start of the 21st century, replaced by the telephone, fax machine and Internet, it laid the groundwork for the communications revolution that led to those later innovations."
