Alexander the great

I believe Alexander desereaves to be called Great. He was extremely intellegent and a skilled warrior. He was able to lead an army over mountains and through rough terrains and was able to create one of the largest empires the world has ever seen. And not to mention he was 20- 30 years old when he did it. Although Alexander was an alcoholic and had a temper it is still remarkable that he could do what he did when everybody including himself was drunk. That in mind plus the fact that he did kill thousands of people and was generally not a nice person I think his overall actions are what define him as great. His capability of creating a empire as big as he did as young as he was is fascinating. Thus I beleive he does deserve to be called great.
