-Alexander the Great
I chose to use a quote by Alexander the Great to start out my topic about "how the technology of an ancient civilization is similar to that of one modern day nation?" The ancient civilization I chose to talk about was the nation of Alexander the Great, which is called Pena, Macedon. The modern day nation I chose to talk about is The United States of America, because they are the largest and strongest superpower on the face of the earth. I thought it was ironic how during the time period of Alexander the Great he controlled much of the land around Europe, so he was considered a superpower during his time. I will also be thinking about talking about some of their strategies during times of war.
This is a very unique topic, and I am interested to see how this will turn out. Technology can define, influence, and shape a society's position in the global society. My question to you is, "Was technology the downfall of Alexander's society, and if so, will it be the downfall of the United States?"
