King Phillip

King Phillip 2nd had a dream of conquering the world. He was the king of Macedonia which was located north from ancient Greece. He soon conquered Persia and much of the land of India. But his dream was burned down when he was killed by his own bodyguard while attending his daughter’s wedding. Soon after his death, his son Alexander (who would later be known as Alexander the Great) took control and began to conquer more land and soon conquer what was known as the “Seleucid Kingdom” which was a large piece of land. Soon when all these conquered lands came together and combined, the culture known as “Hellenistic” was created.
