Ancient Greece: From Rival City-States to Alexander the Great

Ancient Greece was never a single united empire. It was a world of powerful city-states, rival armies, ambitious rulers, and constant struggles for power. From Athens and Sparta to the wars against the mighty Persian Empire, the Greek world went through a transformation that would eventually lead to one of history’s most famous conquerors, Alexander the Great. But how did these rival Greek city-states become connected to the rise of Alexander? Why did Athens and Sparta become such powerful rivals? How did the Greeks stand against the Persian Empire? And how did the story of these divided city-states eventually lead to Alexander the Great and his campaign across the ancient world? In this documentary, we explore the rise of Ancient Greece, the rivalry between its city-states, the Persian Wars, the rise of Macedonia, and the extraordinary journey that eventually brought Alexander the Great to the center of history. This is the story of how a divided Greek world helped shape a changing ancient world.
