Phillip II, Alexander the
Great, and Darius III
King Philip
II:
The leader of Spain. King Philip II was also known as Philip the
Prudent. He ruled one of the world's largest empires and eventually His reign
as Spain's king began the Golden Age which was a huge period of great cultural
growth in literature, music and the visual arts. He also became the King of
England through his marriage to “Mary Tudor” for four years.
Alexander
the Great: Born on July 20, 356 B.C., in Pella, in the Ancient
Greek kingdom of Macedonia. During his leadership, from 336 to 323 B.C., he
united the Greek city-states and led the Corinthian League.
Darius
III: Also went by Codommanus, (died 330 bc, Bactria), the last king
(reigned 336–330 bc) of the Achaemenid dynasty. Darius belonged to a
collateral branch of the royal family and was placed on the throne by the
eunuch Bagoas, who had poisoned the two previous kings, Artaxerxes III and
Arses.
What I feel all of these people
have in common is that all of them were rulers. They all were kings or all in
charge and leaders of their community
