Really excited for the remastered Diadochi Wars, a truly underrated era.

Leaving his empire to "the strongest" is perhaps the most Alexander The Great thing to do ever..

[Mickmickster]

Brilliant topic about Alexander’s last year and last days. We read about all of his conquests and travels, yet it’s summed up with “then he went to Babylon, drank a ton, and died.”

As a history nerd you guys are the best history channel I've ever known man

[Marco]

Everything about Alexander the Great is just captivating!!! Truly the most interesting historical figure of all time.

"Alexander's name will be spoken till man have tongues to speak " . Thank you very much for this loving series you have gifted us.

Alexander’s body may be long dead but his name and story is immortal.

Just one note, Serapis, the god mentioned here to be invoked to help heal the feverish Alexander, is accurate name of the god mentioned in the sources, but that causes confusion since the Greco-Egyptian god Serapis would not be popularized by the Ptolemaic dynasty quite a bit later, so the theory is that this case of Babylonian "Serapis" is either a mistranslation of a local deity, probably a local version of the title of Enki/Ea, or perhaps a later addition by Ptolemaic chroniclers looking for a way to retroactively add an additional connection between their dynasty, dynastic deity and legendary Alexander.

Well he certainly achieved the goal of being remembered in glory. Few well-known historical figures are known as "the Great". He's not merely referred as "Alexander III of Macedon", he's referred to as "Alexander the Great" and many other historical figures look to him as an inspiration. While many crticisms against him are valid, no one can really downplay how much he achieved in such a short time frame

this was the series that made me love this channel and i am so happy to see how far this series has come

[SonOfLusitania]

Such a great man, commander and warrior he was that his soldiers felt they needed to see him and be at his side, mourning his death just like a friend.

Alexander was truly god-like in all he accomplished! Amazing what someone can do in such a short lifetime.

[kovacsbalint]

I cannot fathom why there are no shows or movies about this legend. An HBO show would be amazing

[ancientgreekholidays]

Great video, thank you very much!! Alexander the Great still lives in the hearts of Greeks and the world!!!!

[Agemus]

I really enjoyed the Alexander series. It’s my favorite about him as it covers the sources thoroughly.

[davidhughes]
