I think they used his casus.

I think alex would be proud

Well they never did conquer territory as big, but Alexander greatly wasn't focused on Europe.

They had nuisance with Persians and Parthians, whom Alexander conquered.

I believe Empire was at its height during Traian and had much land in Asia then.

its not just about conquring

I mean like as a leader

Ah.

By the way Mr. E have you heard about Bactrians?

Name of camels came from them, which is only thing they're remembered from today, lol.

@Deleted User Hey, I've given contact to you to a friend of mine with Iranian origin.

Hope you won't mind that.

No problem, I think he added me @National Trotskyist

The pan Iranian fellow right

And yes the Bactrian camels were named after ancient inhabitants of modern day tajikistan and Afghanistan​

Some speculate based on linguistics and archeological evidence they were the ancient ancestors of modern day Tajiks in Afghanistan and tajikistan

I'm surprised you know about that. Not many people care about the ancient history of Afghanistan and central asia

Yes, I've learned of them when I was reading on the pre-Turkic history of the so called Turkestan/Turan.

Bactrians, Sogdians, Pseudo-Tokharians/Kucheans & Agneans and Tokharians proper (Yuezhi/Kushans).

Pretty interesting stuff.

It just surprised me those nations disappeared almost completely.

Bactrians to my surprise, were influenced by the Greek regime so much, they adopted Greek alphabet to write their language.

It's only Iranic nations known to me which did this.

There were few nations which used Greek alphabet, like Anatolians, or Copts and Goths in modified form.

Bactrians? No clue.

It looks like the "Persian Princess" Alexander the Great had child with was actually one.

It's strange, because I had no idea of that.

Who was the child?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_IV_of_Macedon

Roxane was the mother.

He was successor to Alexander the Great.

I first heard of him at school.

I believe Diadochi found him incapable to rule and partitioned the empire.

Why?

Wonder how would it have been they acted as regents till he grew up.

If you remember Alexander was... Very fucking young.

When he was crowned.

I think he administrated the army at mere 21 years old.

his son?

or the great?

The Great.
