At the age of 13, he became a prince. With his army he conquered many places. At the place of Tyre, the people made a statue on his honour. In addition, he had solved the Gordian knot and he used his mind to solve it. He cut it with his sword. He killed his friend because he told him that he wasn't the only one who conquered cities. He died at Babylon because of getting sick.
