Alexander understood truths about society that other’s of his time either did not grasp or care to entertain. He knew to separate battles and keep destruction from the cities. This served a few purposes. Alexander could award the riches of the conquered lands to his soldier and this gave the conquered people a reason to respect him. This highlights what is probably the most genius aspect of Alexander’s military prowess; he knew how to separate military strategy from political aims on the battlefield, but how to exploit his military prowess for his political gain.

In his ruthlessness in those who opposed him (History3), he wanted everyone that was in his way dead. Alexander was so ruthless because has never lost a battle in his reign. For example, in his first battle, the Battle of Chaeronea, he was only eighteen at the time and they were losing the battle (Joshua J. Mark2).

Alexander the Great had strategies that were both effective and efficient to be successful in battle. Although Darius had an army four times greater than that of Alexander’s, he did not utilize his resources as effectively as Alexander (Nassar, 2007). Alexander’s victory proved that that he was effective. The close knit unit was better trained that Darius’s army and had an excellent communications network among the officers. Alexander was efficient because he was able to complete the task with less man power using unconventional strategies and available resources.

Following the rout of his army, King Darius fled Gaugamela and sought safety and support in Babylon.

Zeus is the king of the gods on Olympus and human. Since he is the highest and powerful deity, he can mediate the conflicts of the gods. His action affects the fate of human beings. His most descendants are handsome, heroic, and powerful, in contrast with the descendants of Poseidon, as Zeus seems to be the absolute in the world. He sometimes helps Odyssey and allows Athena to help Odysseus to go back to his home. Nevertheless, he also respects Poseidon’s wrath to punish Odysseus and his people, which seems that it is more important for Zeus to preserve a good relationship with his brother Poseidon than he gives people, who are supplicating to go back to their home, a favor.
