They didn't have the ships and navigation skills to travel around Africa to Asia.

The Age of Exploration would not have been possible without the inventions of new ships like caravels or the extensive research/studying of navigation by individuals like Prince Henry the Navigator. These two factors allowed explorers to have a more reliable means of transportation and a better understanding of the geography/conditions they would face during their expeditions.

Why did Alexander the Great build temples in conquered lands?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Because he believed that the only way of creating prosperous Empire is by strengthening the culture and honoring the religious diversity of his country. He wanted to blend Greek culture with the Eastern cultures and that is why he built roads, temples, even cities.

Although Alexander The Great is mostly known as a great conqueror, he is also important because during his reign a new form of culture emerged, known to us as Hellenism. During that period many important artists, philosophers, historians, etc. were spreading the ideas of Alexander. It was  something never seen until then.
