Leaders

When Philip the second first started being king of Spain it was the start of the Golden Age. King Philip the Second also lead Portugal, Naples, and Sicily. He was a strong leader with a lot of military experience. But that led to his death to Cancer on September 13th 1598. Alexander the Great was a king of Ancient Greece. He changed Greece for the better by helping their military tactics and for the Persians he taught them a Greek way of life. He was one of the main reasons Ancient Greece was so strong and dominant in most wars they fought. We are not certain how he died but some people believe he died of a fever that lasted ten days in Babylon on June 23BCE. Darius the Third was the last king of Persia. He was a relatively weak leader.

Alexander  spoke soothingly to the horse and turned it toward the sun so that it could no longer see its own shadow, which had been the cause of its distress.  Alexander successfully tamed the horse.  As one of his chargers, Bucephalus served Alexander in numerous battles.  The value which Alexander placed on Bucephalus emulated his hero and supposed ancestor  Achilles , who claimed that his horses were "known to excel all others for they are immortal.  Bucephalus died at the age of thirty. However, the cause of death not old age or weariness, but fatal injuries at the Battle of the  Hydaspes  (June 326 BC), in which Alexander's army defeated  King Porus .
