À propos de ce contenu audio

In Babylon, the conqueror’s journey comes to an abrupt end. At just 32, Alexander lies dying, leaving behind an empire without a clear successor.

As news of his death spreads, unity dissolves into rivalry. Generals carve out kingdoms, loyalties shift, and the vast realm he forged fractures into competing powers. From Egypt to Persia, the struggle for control ignites new wars even before the mourning begins.


Yet from the ruins of conquest, a new world emerges. Greek language, culture, and ideas spread across former imperial lands, shaping cities like Alexandria into centers of learning and exchange.


The Hellenistic Age dawns, brilliant and turbulent, carrying forward both the promise and the cost of Alexander’s ambition.
