  • Conquests of Alexander the Great - Part 2: The First Invasion and the Bloody Crossing into Asia

    Conquests of Alexander the Great - Part 2: The First Invasion and the Bloody Crossing into Asia
    Feb 27 2026

    In 334 BCE, Alexander the Great crosses the Hellespont and launches his invasion of the Persian Empire, marking the beginning of one of history’s most ambitious military campaigns. At the river Granicus, Macedonian forces clash with Persian satraps and Greek mercenaries in a brutal baptism of blood that opens the gates to Asia Minor.


    As cities along the Anatolian coast fall, some through surrender and others through siege, Alexander’s army advances deeper into Persian territory, facing scorched earth tactics, mounting losses, and the harsh realities of conquest. The victories at Granicus and beyond signal that this campaign will not be a brief incursion, but the opening phase of a war that will reshape the ancient world.

    Conquests of Alexander the Great - Part 3: Battles, Sieges, and the Unstoppable March East
    Feb 28 2026

    Alexander’s campaign accelerates as he advances deeper into Persian territory. From the symbolic cutting of the Gordian Knot to the decisive clash at Issus, Macedonian forces face the full might of Darius III and emerge victorious.


    As the march continues, brutal sieges at Tyre and Gaza reveal the true cost of conquest, even as Egypt welcomes Alexander as a liberator. But beyond these victories lie stretched supply lines, rising resistance, and growing tensions within the ranks, as ambition drives the army ever further east toward new and uncertain horizons.
