Filmed over two years in Greece, Turkey, Syria, Egypt and Iran, this three-hour documentary sheds light on the exciting life and achievements of Alexander The Great. Considered by many to be the most successful military commander of the ancient world, Alexander The Great's conquests over the Persian Empire began a new era of Greco-Macedonian rule over non-Greek lands. Although he was driven to conquer, he held a strict policy of treating conquered people with great respect, sometimes allowing them to integrate into his administration and army, in exchange for their undying loyalty. 2005 (180 min.)
