Questions 1 and 2
Alexander has been taking good care of all of us very
well. Everything has been much better ever since he took over Phillip II’s
place. Our kingdom has become very powerful. He has been scene great by everyone
forever. He was a young 20 years old when he became leader. He was taught geography, science, and literature by
Aristotle. He is now a ruthless leader. His first conquest was an attack on Thessaly,
which restored the Macedonian rule. The attack also solidified his
father’s treaty to unite Greece. Just a couple of years ago he defeated the Thracian's penetrating to
the Danube River. Just a couple of days ago I overheard some soldiers talking
about how he has started the war against Persia. He has the largest army to use
in the war. He has a total of 48,500 soldiers. Aristotle had taught Alexander to
appreciate Greece’s culture. He was going to use terror and kindness to conquer
his empire. He said if anyone resisted that he would burn their town down and
that all of the people would be sold into slavery. He also pointed out if the
city state surrendered that he would let them keep their government and Alexander
would rebuild their damaged property.

In your post, you pointed out that Alexander was young when he came into power. Then you backed it up with how he is now ruthless and informed us of how he came into being the leader that he is. That is a very good point and helps to show how Alexander has progressed into being even greater!
