This map illustrates the state of the Macedonian Kingdom at the time of Philip II's death in 336 BCE, a powerful and unified state in northern Greece, poised to dominate the ancient world. Through military reform, strategic diplomacy, and alliances, Philip expanded Macedon’s territory, securing its hegemony over Greece and preparing the groundwork for his son, Alexander, to launch his conquests. The kingdom’s well-trained army and newly established political alliances set the stage for the Macedonian Empire’s future expansion under Alexander the Great.
