Alexander was born in Pella in 356 B.C. He was extremely influenced by his dad, Philip II, his mom, Olympias, and his teacher, Aristotle. When Alexander was 16, Philip II remarried and had another son. That same year, Philip II was stabbed at his daughter's wedding. Alexander was made king at age 20 and began his conquest of Asia. Alexander brought along a personal historian along with the army to record all of the battles for history.
