Philip II of Macedon planned to invade Persia but was assassinated, leaving the invasion to his son Alexander. As a young but experienced commander, Alexander invaded Persia in 334 BC, defeating their army at the Battle of Granicus. He went on to conquer Egypt, building the Lighthouse of Alexandria, and defeated Darius III at Issus in 331 BC. Alexander continued conquering territory until reaching India, but his army refused to go further. Alexander died in 323 BC at age 33 after contracting a fever, without naming a successor for his vast empire.

Philip II of Macedon conquered Greece and established the League of Corinth, but was assassinated in 336 BC. His son Alexander the Great, then only 20 years old, took the throne and proved himself an exceptional military leader. Alexander led his army on a campaign to invade the massive Persian Empire, defeating King Darius III in four major battles between 334-327 BC at the Granicus River, Issus, Gaugamela, and the Hydaspes River. Through these decisive victories, Alexander was able to conquer the entire Persian Empire by the age of 32, spreading Greek culture widely before his death in 323 BC from illness.

World histmidtermppt
This document summarizes world history from the last Ice Age through the collapse of early empires. It describes the agricultural revolution around 10,000 BCE which led to settled civilizations. The first civilizations like Sumer developed around 4,000 BCE due to the need for large-scale irrigation and food production. They established governments, writing systems, slavery, and patriarchal societies. Later empires like Persia and Greece expanded before collapsing because they became too large and expensive to sustain given the available resources at the time.
Video summaries
1. The document summarizes information from various history videos about key events and discoveries in world history, such as human migration out of Africa, volcanic eruptions that caused catastrophic climate change, and the expansion of Greek and Egyptian empires.
2. It also discusses the Muslim conquest of Spain and establishment of Al-Andalus, Christopher Columbus' voyage to find a western trade route to Asia in 1492, and the impact of the Little Ice Age from the 14th to 19th centuries.
3. The summaries cover a wide range of topics in world history from prehistoric human migration to medieval European history.
First farmers
The document summarizes the agricultural revolution that occurred between 8,000-5,000 BCE. It began independently in different parts of the world as nomadic hunter-gatherer societies transitioned to more settled agricultural lifestyles due to climate change and scarce resources. The Fertile Crescent was an early region of domestication of plants like wheat and barley and animals like sheep and goats. Early farming societies had advantages of steady food and larger populations but also risks of disease and dependence on certain crops. New technologies and social structures varying from pastoral to village societies to chiefdoms emerged during this period of human development.
My Presentation
The document introduces someone named Adrianne (Anna) who describes their ethnic background as being Indian, Irish, Dutch, and Scottish. They state that they are also creative and were born in Washington State in the summer. Their interests include music bands like Black Veil Brides and Pierce the Veil, and TV shows like Avatar, Breaking Bad, and The Walking Dead.

The Outcome Economy
1) The document discusses the opportunity for technology to improve organizational efficiency and transition economies into a "smart and clean world."
2) It argues that aggregate efficiency has stalled at around 22% for 30 years due to limitations of the Second Industrial Revolution, but that digitizing transport, energy, and communication through technologies like blockchain can help manage resources and increase efficiency.
3) Technologies like precision agriculture, cloud computing, robotics, and autonomous vehicles may allow for "dematerialization" and do more with fewer physical resources through effects like reduced waste and need for transportation/logistics infrastructure.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
