Alexander the Great was not only a military genius, but also a genius of power - not just a great commander who did not suffer a single defeat and earned the glory of the new God of War, but also a brilliant politician who created the first world Empire.

How did a brave warrior get along in one person, whose courage on the battlefield became a legend - and a cowardly despot who was afraid of conspiracies and assassination attempts? A wise ruler who equalized the rights of the winners and the defeated - and a cruel tyrant who killed friends and associates on the slightest suspicion?
