Both say they love their motherland and their people. Conflict between these two giants brings suffering to the common man. These men are simply torturing ordinary citizens to settle their personal disputes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>After conquering most part of the known world, Alejandro was sitting in the palace quarters in the beautiful<a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldhistory.org\/Byblos\/\"> city of Byblos<\/a>, when a hill girl came to him and asked, &#8220;Why do you still continue to fight when you have gained everything you have ever desired for? Please turn back home and enjoy a peaceful life with your newly acquired riches <em>(of course with me as your wife)<\/em>&#8221; stop this bloody campaign of yours lest it should cast shadow upon your own life.&#8221; Alejandro then raised his head from his pillow and barked, &#8220;this isn\u2019t what I was after, all these treasure is a loot for my people, spoils of war, none of my countrymen ever worked for it anyway, neither will you find any of these treasures in my kingdom, back at home, some of these cities are ten times richer than our own. What I am after is not wealth of our foes, but influence, I would want my name to be known in all parts of the habitable world.
