Alexander the Not-So-Great. Alexander the Great. Alexander III of Macedon is often called Alexander the Great as a result of his victory against the Persian Empire and his vast conquests. Alexander took over more territory than any general before him, and it was not until the Mongols that an empire would surpass the size of Alexander's empire.
How did Alexander the Great build his empire? Alexander the Great became king after his father, King Phillip II, died. Alexander began his conquest of the Persian Empire 334 B.C. with the Battle of Granicus. Alexander's forces destroyed the Persian forces. A year later, Alexander the Great, defeated the Persian army at the Battle of Issus and freed the Greek city-states of Asia Minor. He then captured Syrian and Egypt. Alexander built the city of Alexandria in Egypt as a center of business.
