[Alexanderthegreat331]

[rjai34]

Where can I buy this game?

[globeburn]

@rjai34 the store :D

[unfukkkmee]

THE MACEDONIANS ARE GREEKS

[infidel94]

just because alexander had a huge army and set babylon on fire doesn't make him Great. In that case Hitler should be called The Great

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@infidel94

That's not why he got the name Great. All generals who got this nick name destroyed cities but they gained that name for their skills.

[vikfox8]

@infidel94 first of all you are wrong completely.. Persians always wanted to rule the west civilization ... the hole Europe .. have you heard the sacrifice of 300? so if wasn't the 300 Spartans and the Greeks who knows how could be the history now....that's why Alexander wanted to destroy the Persian empire.. and people from Persia and other lands accept him as their King.. so he brink and teach democracy to these lands... thats why he is the Great..

[vorjay]

@infidel94 Alexander didn't have a huge army. He had an army of 40 thousand and was outnumbered in every battle.

[Stefanoitch]

@infidel94 Alexander never set fire to babylon. And he was great!! Very great

[christaras951]

@infidel94 My friend, he is called great for his battle strategics and his great mind....He had not a huge army.. He exit from Greece with 40.000 soldiers...With these soldiers, he fought armies that have twice and more soldiers than he had...Also you might not know that he was on the front line in every battle...thats why he is great...I don't think that Hitler ruled the same size of land as Alexander did....correct me if i 'm wrong....

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@christaras951

Hitler was a crazy bozo, it's an insult for Alexander to be compared to that clown.

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@PhobosRevenge

well said!

[KingsofSparta]

wtf ROME TOTAL WAR HAHAHAHA

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

The Russian historian Avraam B. Rankovitch (of the Soviet Academy of Sciences), in his book, Hellenistic Period, p. 285, writes: "The culture that was fostered in the Hellenistic period also burst the bounds of the Hellenistic world. This culture, which was later inherited by the Roman Empire, Byzantium, and the peoples of the East, exercised a significant influence on the culture of the modern era".

@MACEDONIANbybirth 10/10 4ur comment but do u realise the PAIN u r

causing the FYROMonkeys ?? EVIL,,,CRUEL !! = ohoho NIGHTMARE !!!

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@ratzP

they should not have tried to steal Greek history :)

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

Alexander, the King and commander-in-chief of all the Greeks, crushed the despotic Persian Empire. He propagated Hellenic culture (as Plutarch tells us) and, assisted by his successors, the diadochi, established Greek as the universal language, thus changing the whole course of history.

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@kozinata

in case u did not notice, your language and u are not macedonians, they are slavic so educate yourself cause a copied Greek name cannot hide your Bulgarian nationality, try reading the ancient Macedonian tablets......or are they all Greek to you?

[GoBziGr]

Hey hey ppl why you argue? Go in wikipedia and expand your knowledge. Check what Macedonia,Alexander,Philip,Oly­mpia means. From which language they come from. End of story.

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@GoBziGr

Indeed so, all these are GREEK names!

[chris97theGreek]

macedonia is greek!!

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@makedoniaPower

You are a Bulgarian who copied the name of the Greek provonce of macedonia and no one thinks that u have any relation to the anciets.

[spyros16121997]

@MACEDONIANbybirth αφου ετσι μαςκαταντησαν

[dalex303]

Alexander brought all culture and knoeledge to the eastern kingdoms. Philippos prepared everything, but Alexander reached what no man did. The title of "GREAT".

[ejpbruel]

@dalex303 No man reached the title of 'great'? What about Cyrus? You know, the man who begot the Persians their Empire? Or Ramesses?

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@ejpbruel

Also Napoleon and Ivan.

[gaelenfade]

@ejpbruel this man is correct Alexander was not the only "great"

[pooponmypans]

lol rome total war music (campaign music) and rofl rome total war game as the battle

[bookkeeper57]

Philip II unified the Greek city states into a Greek kingdom, and his son Alexander III (the Great) forged an empire. Alexander was 25 years old at Gaugamela, where he carried the day with 40,000 men against a Persian host of more than 200,000.

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@bookkeeper57

well said.

[LzZzful]

Macedonia in RTW are called Macedon 2 letters are missing :S!

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@LzZzful

The real name is Makedonia (Macedonia in English), Makedon (Macedon) means Macedonian ( The inabitant of the region). I guess the English translation loses the real Greek meaning!

[Alexandros1294]

@MACEDONIANbybirth The English language uses Macedon or Macedonia as the name of the Kingdom. We call them either the Macedons or the Macedonians. Macedonia is derived from the word Makednos, which means tall man, correct?

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@Alexandros1294

correct! But Macedon is the translation of the word Makedon which refers to the inhabitant and not the land.

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

@oilgasfish1

Philippos II was a 3 time Olympic games winner and he also hosted the Pythian Games and you had to be Greek to do that.

[POTIS1]

3G.

GREAT GREEK GLORY!

[A2Kaid]

Alexander the Great is an incredible leader and warrior. As a Pakistani it gives me great honor and sense of dignity to know when Alexander the Great invaded modern day Pakistan, it was there first time in history did Alexander the Great's blood was spilled in the battle field, a piecing arrow had penetrated his torso, since then he never returned to battle. Graveyard, of Empires.

Respect to Alexander the Great!

[Alexandros1294]

@A2Kaid Actually, he did return to battle... but in a lightning campaign against the Cossaens after Hephaistion's death. He wasn't quite as reckless as he was before. The Mallian arrow actually hit his lung and he was barely saved. Respect to Pakistan! The greatest challenge Alexander ever faced in his life!

[MACEDONIANbybirth]

The kingdom of Macedonia was a Greek kingdom. There was no Greece at that time, there were only separate Greek kingdoms unti Philippos united them to march against Persians.

[Alexandros1294]

@MACEDONIANbybirth Greek Kingdoms and City-states anyway.
