Про це відео

Alexander the Great transformed the world during his reign — but was he an embattled leader, or a ruthless conqueror? -- Alexander the Great fundamentally transformed the world during his 13-year reign. He conquered Persia when it was one of the world’s largest empires, and he was considered a living demi-god by Egyptians and Greeks. But was he a brilliant, embattled leader, or a ruthless, power-hungry conqueror? Stephanie Honchell Smith puts this controversial figure on trial in History vs. Alexander the Great. Lesson by Stephanie Honchell Smith, directed by Michael Kalopaidis, Zedem Media.
