Alexander the Great
11. Not the greatest start
We start of at 346, Phillip is elected president of the Pythian Games. Demosthenes gives his "About Peace" speech, which gives us many clues about Athens felt at this specific time period. We have a few battles with Illirian tribes in the North of Macedonia. The Thessalians are not feeling loved and Alexander will have his first contact with Voukefalas, or Bucephalus, the greatest of all the horses.
