Alexander The Great Villain

Beilby Porteus “One murder makes a villain, millions a hero. A villain is a cruelly malicious person who is involved in or devoted to wickedness or crime.
Alexander the Great is a villain because he was bloodthirsty, he abused the power that he had, and he destroyed so many kingdoms and ruled those kingdoms. Alexander had brought destruction everywhere he went.
When Alexander came to a new civilization he killed innocent people. Alexander did this because he wanted to build a new civilization for himself. This is villainous because it was a very selfish act that in turn cost the people in the civilization their lives. According to “A Hero’s Hero-Alexander and Achilles” “Alexander who had brought death and destruction wherever he went.” Villains destroy things. Hero’s make things better, hero’s do not destroy things. But Alexander is destroying places

which is very villainous. Alexander just kept fighting battles until he had conquered all the places he could have conquered. Also according to “Alexander The Great” “He moved swiftly using his military genius to win battle after battle conquering many peoples and rapidly expanding the Greek empire.” When Alexander went to new civilizations he just kept winning so there was no stopping him, he just kept killing people for his own selfish reasons. This is villainous because it was very rude and mean. Alexander and his men are fighting innocent people just so he can have more land just for himself. Alexander is conquering places and does not care who he hurts.
Alexander the Great is a villain because he abused his power.

Alexander is punishing people who have escaped him because he had terrible laws. Alexander also punished civilizations for murdering his father, Phillip the 2, and he did not know what person killed his father, he punished anyone he could find just to show he had power. According to “Alexander at the Temple of Zeus-Ammon” “I punished all those who were the murders of my father or have some escaped me?” Villains make people suffer and punish or hurt them and that is exactly what Alexander is doing. Alexander took advantage of his power, he did not let his men retreat when his men were done with the battle. Alexander was destroying civilizations. Alexander did not care who he was hurting either he just wanted power. Also according to “Alexander the Not So Great” “By the age of 30, Alexander ruled over an empire spanning three continents and covering more two million square miles.” Alexander ruled a ton of kingdoms, he built and destroyed buildings and people in the civilization and their lives. Alexander is a villain because he had to kill a lot of

people.
Alexander the Great was a villain because he destroyed kings and kingdoms. Alexander took over the kingdoms, made people suffer even though the people did nothing wrong, and he had terrible laws. Alexander took over the kingdom and tore down all the buildings and built new ones for him. According to “Alexander The Not-So-Great” “There were no more kingdoms left to conquer.” When he did this he just built new kingdoms and took over everything. Alexander had terrible laws and he was just a terrible guy in general.
Some people would say that Alexander the Great is a hero because he was a good leader, but those people are wrong. According to “A Hero’s Hero-Alexander and Achilles” “Alexander who had brought death and destruction wherever he went.” Alexander destroyed so many valuable possessions that people owned. Alexander also killed so many people in battle just to rule more land. Villains can be powerful and strong, Alexander was strong and powerful, but Alexander used his strength and power for the wrong reasons. How can Alexander be called a hero even though all he did was bring destruction everywhere.
Alexander the Great is a villain because he was bloodthirsty, he abused the power that he had, and he destroyed so many kingdoms and ruled those kingdoms.
