The cities Of Asia opened their gates
to the conqueror as he marched TO
meet the great king himself. On to
way he came upon the famous Con-
dian knot, with which Phrygian
king had bound his chariot yoke so
tightly and so 'intrcately that no
one had been able to unite It, An
oracle foretold that whoever should
unite that knot should become
master of the world. Alexander
cut the Gordian knot" with n
single stroke Of his sword. That
was always his way with Difficult
ties: he solved them just as he won
his victories-by sudden bold
strokes. rather than by subtle and IN
genious methods.
Alexander met the Persian king,
Darts III, in the great battle. Issus,
between the mountains and the sea,
at the northeastern corner of the
Mediterranean. Here the resistless
Macedonian phalanx utterly routed
the disorderly masses of the Per-
arch offered all Asia, as far as the
Euphrates, as the condition OF peace;
but his conqueror proudly refused.
Sweeps On
Onward he swept, reducing the
enemy's strongholds one after an
other, Egypt easily fell into his
hands, and there he built one OF the
seventy cities he is said to have
founded-the city Of Alexandria, des-
tined to be in a few decades the me-
tropolis of Egypt.
With the Mediterranean world in
his grasp, Alexander now retraced
his steps eastward and thrust at the
heart of Persia itself. He met
Darius again in the spring OF S31 -
the battle of Arbela, near the Tigiv
River. The Persians greatly out
numbered the Macedonians, but their
army was easily crushed. Darius,
utterly vanquished and forced to
flee, was stabbed by his own
treacherous attendants.
Alexander entered in triumph
Babylon and Susa, the storehouse of
the treasures Of the east, and
Persepolis, the capital OF Persia.
Continuing eastward and northword
he conquered the Scythians on the
banks of the Jaxartes river. He
then turned southwark planning to

his soldiers wearied with nearly
eight years of fighting, refused to
follow him further, and he was
forced to turn back.
Returning to Babylon he found
ambassadors from all parts Of the
world awaiting to pay him homage.
Not satisfied with this homage, and
perhaps moved by the fact that the
eastern peoples he had conquered
would not permanently acknowledge
The sway of any except q king who

E7 Y father will leave nothing
I'M for me to do!' So the boy
Alexander once exclaimed
as he noted the triumphs of his
father, Philip. king of Macedon. But
though Philip made himself a master
over nearly all of the Greek states,
the rest Of the civilized world re.
manned as a vast field for Alex
'ander's conqpests-a field not too
great for his boundless ambition and
his far-reaching genius as a soldier
and statesman.
During the thirteen years OF his
reign, 336-323 b. c., Alexander wrote
his name large on the history Of
four civilizations the Greek,
Semitic, Egyptian and Iranian-and
made himself a place with the few
men like Caesar, Charlemagne, and
Napoleon, who have decisively
changed the current of world history.
Born at Pella, the capital of Mace
don, in $50 b. c.. and carefully ed
ucated by the great Aristotle. he
early gave evidence of his remark
able gifts. When only sixteen he
took charge of the government in
his fathers absence. Two years
later he showed such courage in the
battle of Chaeronea, where the Mace
domains defeated the Greek forces,
hat his father, embracing him said;
my son, ask for myself another
Kingdom, for that which l leave is
too small for thee"
King at 10 Years
At Philips death, Alexander, not
yet 20 years old, assembled the throne
and prepared to finish the conquests
which his father had begun. When
Thebes revolted, he struck terror
into all Greece by razing the city
to the ground. His respect for
Greek art and letters, however, led
him to spare the house of the poet
Pindar.
With Greco at his feet, Alexander
was no free to realize the almost
incredibly bold design for conquer
ing the Persian Empire-an empire
fifty times as large as all Greece and
with twenty times as many people.
For centuries the life Of Greek
civilization had been menaced by
Persia, which had pushed westward
to the Aegean Sea. The danger was
ever present Of some sudden, power
full stroke which should crush the
culture Of the West and plunge the
entire world into eastern semi
barbarism. Already the influer ce of
Oriental life and superstition was
sapping away the strength Of Hell
lenism. Alexarder's mission was
first to free the Greek cities Of Asia
Minor-one-third Of the entire Greek
world then to sweep Persian power
from the rest Of the Mediterranean,
and finally to crush Persia itself so
thoroughly that centuries were to
elapse before the East should ever
again seriously menace the West.
BY extending Greek civilization over
all the shores of the, Mediterranean
and into interior Asia, Alexander I'M
Willingly paved his way for Chris
tianity three centuries later.
Defeats the Persians
Crossing the Hellespont, Alex
ander invaded Asia Minor in 1874.
and defeated the Persians in a num-
her of battles, overthrowing with his
own lance the son-in-law of the king.
