Скачать или смотреть The Fall of Persia: Alexander's Relentless Pursuit of Darius III

In just four years, Alexander the Great shattered the most powerful empire on Earth.
After the Battle of Granicus, the war against Persia truly began. In this episode, we follow Alexander from the narrow battlefield of Issus, through the conquest of Egypt, to the decisive clash at Gaugamela, and finally to the burning of Persepolis and the death of King Darius III.
This is the story of how a young Macedonian king defeated the Great King of Persia, broke a two-hundred-year-old empire, and claimed the title “King of Asia.”
We explore:
Why Darius III personally led his army
How Alexander defeated Persia despite overwhelming odds
Why Egypt welcomed Alexander as pharaoh
The meaning behind the destruction of Persepolis
And how the Persian Empire truly came to an end
This is not just a tale of battles — it is the moment when the ancient world changed forever.
