At 18 years old in 338 BCE at the Battle of Chaeronea fought between the Macedonian Empire and the Greek allied city-states Alexander's military skill was first noted when he turned the tide of the battle for a Macedonian victory and afterwards the Greek city-states were brought under Macedonian rule. In 336 BCE just 2 years after the Battle of Chaeronea Philip II died and Alexander assumed the throne as King of Macedon Alexander wasted no time in embarking on the extensive campaign that his father had been planning the conquest of the Persian Empire
