Was Alexander The Great real? His story seems too perfect to be true>extremely capable commander, tactician and strategist>good looking >cared for his troops, participated in the battle himself >Aristotle taught him Persians were barbarians who should be genocided, instead he assimilated them>spread hellenism all across the known world>when his best friend died he did pretty much what mythological achilles did>died young, leaving doubt how long could his empire survive It seems just too good to be true. Ceasar and napoleon are portreyed as geniuses too, but not god-like, they aren't described as attractive. It seems like Alexander of Macedonia had it all, which makes me doubt accounts of his life.
>>18388540I don't care retard, you're making this thread to harass, terrorize and threaten me for playing a video game because you're a retarded disgusting insecure faggot nigger tranny who should be annihilated and prevented from ever manifesting the forms into material reality ever again and especially from ever forcing me to actualize you disgusting insipid hell world by being forced to act as the sole frame of reference for it and only persistently real person in it so that you an abuse me through your disgusting retarded rat ogre self-insert tranny pigs.
>>18388543Please take meds bro. We all care about you deeply here
>>18388543seethe harder
>>18388540Yea but he was BROWN/SWARTHY like the mural showing him with a spearNo pretty boy blondie could ever even take this path. It's simple reasoning
>>18388615of course, everyone knows pretty boy blondies are his favored prizes
>>18388540It's due to the limited contemporary sources and Alexander being the patron of his biographers. He did a great job controlling the information about him and it's mostly positive and exaggerated.
Alexander is basically whom you know as Jesus.
>>18388540History is oftenly tainted and there is no absolute way to verify the truth.
>>18388540He was real, we know where Philip Tomb is, we know Alexandria foundation goes back to his era, we have that bridge in tyre he built, the selucids also arrived after his era replacing acheademinids.
You left out the fact that he was a manlet, either 5'4 or maybe even 5'2.
>>18389315Yet his deeds stand taller than any other's (besides Jesus Christ)
>>18389344his height did not diminish him and he was actually pretty cool about it
>>18389315I bet Hephaestion really had fun with that fact.
>>18389344Jesus wouldn't have happened without Alexander spreading Hellenism.
>>18389700Hellenism has nothing to do with it. Amon-Ra has nothing to do with Hellenism. Even Dionysus has nothing to do with Hellenism.We really, reaaaally have to go back before the time where people took creative license to do what they wanted and messed around with all the world building that had been started thousands of years ago.
Greek pantheon pre-Hellenism: before Venus (Aphrodite, Athena, Hera mess) worship that introduced her as a "replacement" of Phanes/Dionysus/Amon/Eros and so on.
