What does it mean by a royal hostage? How was Philip's relationship with his wife? Was it really so bad that she would plan to kill him? Were the people drafted into Alexander's army involuntary or did they want to become soldiers?
1. What was Philip's and ATG's family life like? 2. What happened at the battle at Chaeronea? Where is Chaeronea? 3. Why was Athens and Pindar spared? Did Athens join the alliance that Sparta refused? Why did Sparta refuse the alliance and did they know the consequence?
1. How was Sparta defeated? 2. What was the real reason why the three men jumped out of the crowd and stabbed Philip to death? 3. Why did Philip leave his son the Macedonian Army?
Who did Philip inherit the kingdom from, if it was his father, what was his name? What is an “Orator”? Wasn’t there a huge golden stature of Alexander the Great? Why did the angle of spears change the farther back you got in the military lines, would people fall from the sky?
Questions 1) How did Alexander get the title “Alexander the Great”? 2) Why did the Southern Greeks think the Macedonians were so close to barbaric? 3) Who was Pindar? 4) How did Alexander get the soldiers in his army? Did they volunteer? Did they get more soldiers every few years so the others could go home?
1) Where was Mt. Pangaeus? 2) Why did the southern Greeks consider Macedonia "about a half-step away from barbarism?" 3) If Phillip's wife had engineered his death by the three men, why was she so eager to have her son be the new king?
How were the Macedonians barbaric or very close to begin Barbaric? Why did Alexandr the Great learn Greek politics? If Sparta was such a great land power and Athens was such a great sea power and they were united, how did they lose? Did Phillip's wife want to kill him? If she did, what would she have gained from his death/ what would her motivation?
We do the same thing with the bridges today- so if he could build such a big bridge, doesn't that mean we should be able to build bridges across bigger bodies of water, since our technology is 'more advanced'?
All of the people thought he was such a good ruled, right? Well, how come if the people thought he was good, his soldiers didn’t/if he soldiers thought he was so conceited and selfish, why do the people find him so great?
1. Who did Phillip inherit the kingdom from? 2. What does philippic mean? 3. Why do people think that Phillip's wife had him killed? 4. What is a pragmatist? 5. Who was Parmenio? 6. Why was Alexander considered mystical and practical?
