Alexander
was a great warrior, and king. He was the king of Macedonia and dreamt
to be
the emperor of the world.
His
father was Philip, king of Macedonia and mother was a descendant of
Hercules.
His parents appointed the best tutors to teach him. Thus he becomes a
voracious
reader of books and a dreamer. His mother had always assured him that
he was
not like others, but a child of the Gods.
He
became brave and
successfully
managed an unmanageable horse, which could not be humbled by his
elders. His
father cried with joy and said, "Seek another kingdom, my son, as
Macedonia is too small for you." He was a disciple of Aristotle and
learnt
moral and political knowledge from him.
Alexander
had a thirst for knowledge and read extensively on various topics. He
married
his lady love Roxane. But later on he also made Statira his wife.
Before
marriage he had relations with Barsine, a lady with royal lineage. He
spent
time in hunting, reading and writing.
