  • Love the Star Wars Sith Theme at the beginning :)

  • As I understand it, Alexander's decision to cross the Gedrosian desert was forced on him by logistical constraints, not a desire to punish his troops. The fleet which would normally have supplied his army, since horses and men would eat carried supplies in two weeks, was delayed at a critical moment by monsoon storms. Where he was, he couldn't have stayed because the entire army would have starved to death. His only choice was to press on west across the desert and preserve some of his army.

  • @Pudlis16 Bulgarians and FYROMians (Vardarskan or Skopje people) are "South Slavs" idiot.Learn history or just GOOGLE IT.

  • @EPSILON80 macedonians aren''t slavs you dumbass

  • @EPSILON80 are you an idiot??....slavs never said that Alexander was a slav.......and bulgarians are not Slavs either....the slavs are...serbians...russians....s­lovakians....slovenians.....Cz­echs......croatians......and many others.....NOT macedon......you are stupid

  • Stupid Slavs in Bulgaria and Yugoslavia said that Alexander the Great was Slav.lol.

    Greek culture ,Greek name with meaning in Greeks (Alex-andros means the person who beats men),Greek language ,Makedonians take part to Olympic Games which only Greeks can did.Slavs soon will said that Spartans were Egyptians.

  • @TheJuggaletteKasha I agree, this programme seems out to make him seem like a monster, then again it is called Ancients Behaving Badly, so guess they have to live up to the name.
