A L E X A N D R O S by Plutarch In an amazing eleven-year journey of conquest, young Alexander of Macedonia conquered all the way from Egypt to India. Behind him came Greek institutions and the Greek language, which became the standard of the ancient world. The intoxication of power caused Alexander to become strange to his friends, and he died unhappy.

Votes:0 Welcome to the Alexander the Great web site. This site provides information about Alexander the Great, his life, his family, his conquests, and his battles, including links to various Alexander the Great sites and resources on the WWW. This site was developed for our 1997 Wisconsin State History Day project. The theme was "Triumph or Tragedy." We thought that Alexander the Great was a great example of triumph since he conquered most of the known world at the time. Once we started studying him, we found a lot of tragedy too. His parents spent most of his life at war with each other, his father the king was assassinated (some said at his mother's bidding), he killed some of his best friends in drunken rages and he died at the peak of his power while still a young man.

She was the most autocratic of Peter's successors. Her ascendancy to the Russian throne was supported by the Russian aristocracy. She was 37 years old at the time, a widow of a German duke and childless. The Privy Council members chose Anna Ivanovna over Elizabeth, a teenage daughter of Peter the Great, who was another contender to the throne. They imposed on Anna a constitution modeled after Sweden's which restored some of their previously lost privileges and freed them from compulsory service.

Votes:0 Charlemagne the King: An biography from Will Durant's STORY OF CIVILIZATION 1950 eyond
the legends of Charlemagne lies a biography worthy of the tales. To the
medieval mind, only King Arthur vied with Charlemagne as the finest example
of what a Christian king could be. Kind, yet fiercely defensive of his
family and Empire, there is much to admire. His exploits spawned both histories
and romances, like all good legends it stood firmly rooted in history.
The biography offered here was published in Will Durant's History of Civilization,
but a small part of an encyclopedic historical survey. I include it here
in the KCT resources because it might prove useful and inspiration to those

Before assuming that someone is not present in this list try all variants of the name -- Karl, Charles, Carolus, Carlos, etc. Brief thought was given to imposing a rational system on the names, but problems outweighed advantages.

In 1689, after the failure of a coup d'etat, Sofia was overthrown and exiled to a convent.

He married Maria Eleonora of Brandenburg who gave birth to a daughter who later would become Queen Kristina of Sweden. His relations to the Swedish aristocracy were very good. The aristocracy had strengthened its power position after the death of Karl IX. For instance, the King had to consult the Council of Aristocrats before initiating or ending a war. During his regime, many aristocrats were awarded estates in conquered territories, and others were able to buy land, originally belonging to the state. The good relations between the King and the aristocracy created a stable political climate. During Gustav II Adolf´s period as king, a number of new cities were built, among Read More Go to Site

Votes:0 Marie Antoinette Marie Antoinette Crown Princess of Austria and Queen Consort of France Marie Antoinette is probably one of the most remembered yet misunderstood women in history. Her name is not only synonymous with the French Revolution and her infamous saying, "Let them eat cake", but also with selfishness, greed, excessiveness, cold-heartedness and so on. But, like every story told, there are two sides to it. Most people are familiar with the one associated with the words above, and to an extent, that is true. But there is also another side to her and that's the side I want to explore of her. Another aspect that is commonly not associated with Marie Antoinette is that her life was like that of a lot of women in the 18th century.
