'''Alexander the Great'''
'''Alexander the Great'''
In four years Alexander conquered the Phoenician cities of Trye and Sidon, the countries of Canaan and Egypt, the Persian cities of Susa and Persepolis, and many other lands. Wherever he went, Alexander spread Greek language and culture. Finally when he reached the Indus River, his homesick army decided that they would go no farther. So Alexander decided to set up a capital for his new empire in Babylon. Tragically, in 323 B.C., Alexander Died of fever after ruling in Babylon for only about a year.
