He won three major battles - Granicus, Issus and Gaugamela. He laid the foundation to this land conquest by capturiing the bases of the Persian navy in the Levant and Egypt, so eliminating the Persian threat to Greece - his source of manpower - in his absence in Asia. After the land wins, he fought on for another six years to take control of the Middle East and Central Asia.
As Alexander was a world conquer and was never defeated in battle. He spread Hellenstic culture, the Greek culture.
Persian infantry was unarmoured - they could not stand up to Macedonian and Greek armoured formations. The Persians first tried hiring Greek armoured infantry, but after winning the battle of Granicus, Alexander had the captured Greek mercenaries massacred as a warning for Greeks thinking of hiring themselves out to Persia. At the final battle of Gaugamela, the Persians had trained their own heavy infantry (Kardakes) but they were too raw and inexperienced to stand up to the seasoned phalanx of Alexander's army.
Most historians estimate that Alexander's marching army was composed of 65,000 soldiers, servants and other personnel. His vital supply and pack animals may have numbered 1,100. Part of so few pack animals was due to his soldiers caring their own weapons and food.
Achilles. Alexander the great was influenced by him so much, he borrowed his shield for good luck in battle.
Alexander the Great conquered and created the Greek empire, it went along side the Mediterranean Sea. When Alexander died Greece was split into 4 sections under 4 rulers. Alexander was also a brave, and skillful war leader, he led every battle and won every battle (so some say).
