Answer 2

Alexander was a violent but tolerant ruler. he is thought to have had a hand in is own father's death. he also was very tolerant of those which he conquered though. he was a shrewed general before becoming emperor of the vast roman empire. he was tutored by Aristotle as a young boy so he had a very good knowledge of philosophies and arts. he was known for his Hellenistic view and for spreading that view to all the lands he visited and conquered. he was a great leader who improved trade, road systems, plumbing and public sanitation and protection of the roman people. he kept a high set of moral standards. and put the empire into a phenomenal state until his death in the early 2nd century. then the roman empire's economy went into a fiscal crisis due to the over-spending of money on lavish parties and alcohol. with Alexander's death, the morals of Rome fell as did sanitation. they drank way too much and as sanitation fell, disease and deaths increased

This is all good except he had nothing to do with the Roman Empire. He was king of Macedonia and leader of an alliance of the Greek City States. He didn't do as much improving of roads, etc. as you would think. He conquered the Persian empire and created his own but died at the age of 33 just 13 years after taking the throne after his fathers death.
