Park Si-yeon: Greek and Roman Mythology 39: Alexander and the Troubled World
After being held hostage in Thebes, Philip II returned to Macedonia. When his brother died, he took the throne instead of his nephew. Philip first strengthened the military by introducing new tactics, including the phalanx. As the country began to stabilize, he further secured his position by marrying Olympias, a princess of Epirus. Then Olympias had a remarkable dream in which Zeus's lightning struck a ship. Under the gods' blessing, Alexander was born to carry on Philip's great work! Olympias was convinced that Alexander would become a great hero who built an empire spanning East and West. Meanwhile, King Philip took advantage of the weakness of Athens and Sparta after the Peloponnesian War and expanded his territory without hesitation. He captured key cities, including Amphipolis, which Athens desperately wanted to reclaim, Pydna, and Crenides, rich in gold mines, and rose to prominence in Greece. His position was further strengthened when he played a major role in the Sacred War over Apollo's temple at Delphi. Philip had long dreamed of conquering Persia. His son Alexander, who would join him in this grand ambition, showed extraordinary promise from childhood and filled everyone's hearts with excitement. Will the powerful Philip II and Alexander make it across the Aegean and advance into Persia?
