Alexander the Great

Hello my name is Emily and i will be asking questions to Alexander the Great. Date February 17, 332.
Q: Alexander what do you think was your greatest achievement?
A: Hello Emily! Thank you for interviewing me. The greatest achievement I think i ever had was defeating Persia about a year ago.

Q: Why was defeating Persia so important to you?
A: Defeating Persia was impsotant to I Aledander the Great because the east meets west and becomes one. The Hellenistic culture comes from this defeat. More woman rights come out. Also major conquest in Asia.


Q: What is the Hellenistic culture?
A: Hellenisric culture is a blend of Greek and local cultures mixed into one. I think this was a big step because this is the first time the Western culture is spread. i started building Greek cities with theaters and public place to help spread this culture.

Q: How do you feel about the gain of womens rights?
A: I think it was good for women to start taking charage, as long as they are not stronger then me!;)

Q: Did you have any other great achievements?
A: YES, the other achievement i think was very important was Egypt. This was a big deal because i just rolled in there and took over. no one got hurt. The people of Egypt even ended up naming me Pharaoh.

Q: How do you feel about being named Pharaoh?
A: Im just cool like that.. what can i say? haha

Emily-Thank you Alexander for letting us ask you these questions!
Alexander- Anytime!!

Reporters note: Alexander died 11 years after this was published in 323.
