Alexander the Great

Alexander was without a doubt a great leader. He was charismatic, and led his troops to defeating the Persians. But, he was also a drunk. Him being drunk was what led to his death. Alexander seemed to be sort of self-centered, he named about 70 cities Alexandria, after himself. He was obsessed with expanding his empire, and it would have been bigger, had he not died at a young age. His kingdom reached all the way out to India, and the only reason it didn't go farther was because his troops refused. They were tired and wanted to go home, but Alexander didn't care. He was also pretty cruel. He burnt down the city of Persepolis for no apparent reason. He though it would be revenge and teach the Persians a lesson. Because of that, hundreds of lives were lost. So, in terms of leadership, yeah Alexander was good.But when it came to morals and character, he was greatly lacking.
