Piano Sheet Music For Mountains By Biffy Clyro

Following the footsteps of Alexander the Great -

After the Battle of Chaeronea, Philip Alexander and his father left him clear to the rest of the Greeks and the world that the time had come. The peak of the Golden Age of Greece was about to begin.

But the tragedy found the young Macedonian. At 19-20 years, in 336 BC his father, Philip II, King of Macedonia was assassinated during the wedding of his daughter Cleopatra. There are several theories about his murder. Revisémolas quickly:

  1. Greeks: Due to the conquests of Philip on the Greek polis, it was logical to think that if they got rid of it, they might recover their freedom and independence.
  2. Persians: The reasons are obvious. A kingdom is growing and expanding and has subjugated all of Greece was an imminent threat and more when he was a Persian ruler as incompetent as it was Darius III.
  3. Olympia: The wife of Philip Handler gives more than enough reasons to blame. We know that Olympia idolized her son Alexander, considered him a demigod, son of Zeus himself. We know that Philip was a womanizer who had 7 wives, and of course, Olympia would not allow his beloved son saw his throne threatened by another child that Philip had with one of his many wives.
  4. Alexander: The reason is logical. Be the sole and rightful heir to the throne, his ambition for the post it could have led to murder his own father. Analyzing

the 4 theories, in my humble and personal opinion, I choose to blame for the murder Olimpia Philippi. Even when the 4 sound logical, the chances of the other 3 are under the circumstances of the moment.

So his real test had come. At 20, Alexander became the new King of Macedonia.
