What You've Done


Alexander: "In the end, when it's over, all that matters is what you've done."

'Alexander' traces the short, but adventurous life of the Macedonian conqueror, Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.), whom conquered almost the entire known world of his era. From his childhood as the son of King Philip, to acending the thrown at age 20 in 336 B.C. upon his father's murder, and starting in 334 B.C., Alexander crossed into Asia on his 11-year conquest of the known world. From his conquests of Egypt, to battles with the Persians and the capture of Babylon, operations near Maracanda and in Afghanistan, and pushing all the way to India where he reigned unchallenged before his sudden death at age 33. Though Alexander made use of the well-oiled army created by his father, he pushed the limits of Macedonian & Greek power to levels King Philip could not have dreamed of.

Salam Ustaz, Isa here, I'm at home now, booked out on friday evening but was too tired to make it for class.

I was just wondering if you read of www.deviantart.com? It's a very good website where you can get pics for your blog and other stuff as well. Try it.
