BIRTH OF A RULER
An ambitous ruler embarks on his impressive military career - Story in 55 words
Rated:
E

Avg Rating: (3)
The emperor was confident of victory at Issus as his well trained soldiers outnumbered the enemy four times.

Nevertheless, he lost because his young rival was the finest military strategist and the most outstanding leader ever born.

This victory marked the fall of Darius III and the conquest of Persia.

He was Alexander the Great.
