19 ene 330 año aC - Sack of Persepolis
Descripción:
- instead of pursuing darius who had gone north east, he continued southeast and wound up at Persepolis
- along the way he was attacked by a bunch of tribesmen
- when he arrived, he found MORE treasure
the wealth that alexander took from the persians fueled the eastern economy for 400 years lol
- burned it down
- alexander was told by his courtesan that she’d like to see a bonfire, and the city was torched (idk if that's true)
