 It's only been two days. Two days since I gained the secret of conquering. Of course, it was much easier with today's technology. Modern weapons, modern tactics mixed with ancient ones; the fire helped too. Greek fire. With history's most powerful weapon combined with modern delivery techniques, the world was putty in our hands. Gaining followers was easy with the memories of an ancient king. 
 Before the procedure, I did n't even know that I was a descendant of Alexander the Great. Of course it all makes sense now, I was always a great sword fighter, I was fantastic with a bow, always a good leader. And yet, it was n't enough to just be his descendant, his memories were the final key.

 Halloween day. Or I guess it would be if any countries still celebrated holidays. With all of the Americas, Australia, and about a 3rd of Europe under my control, every other country in the world is now fully mobilized against us. So I guess they do n't really have time to celebrate holidays anymore. I have decided to hold off on invading Russia until the spring, I for one do n't want a repeat of Hitler's invasion.

 Africa was easy, I did n't even have to fight anyone. A few suggestive words in the right place and I got nice 500-600 million more soldiers to my cause. A small rebellion popped up in Iraq. It seems they figured out the recipe to Greek fire and toppled the government I established there. A small counter-insurgency force was enough to stop them. I had them publicly executed. I decided to do it myself, if you decide that someone should die, you should do it yourself.

 How ironic, conquered the whole world, came back to stifle another rebellion; damn Iraqis sure do know how to rebel. It's not even a gunshot, they seemed to have found a way to poison me. Infect me with some stupid incurable disease they ca n't even identify. I looked it up, Alexander the Great died in this very palace, of some incurable disease they could n't identify at the time. I can feel the life fading from me as I write this. I guess this is it, it's stupid, it's ironic, it's....
