A proposito di questo titolo

After two decades of scheming, backstabbing, and brutal warfare among Alexander the Great's former generals, the fate of his empire came down to a single battlefield in central Anatolia. In 301 BCE, the aging Antigonus Monophthalmus and his brilliant son Demetrius Poliorcetes faced off against a coalition of rival Diadochi: Seleucus, Lysimachus, and Cassander. This episode of What Happened After Alexander the Great Died zooms in on the Battle of Ipsus, the largest and most decisive clash of the Successor Wars. We explore the war elephants that turned the tide, the death of the last man who might have reunited Alexander's empire, and the four kingdoms that emerged from the dust. Lucas and Luna discuss Antigonus's imperial ambitions, Demetrius's reckless pursuit of victory, and how Seleucus's cunning use of Indian war elephants—acquired from Chandragupta Maurya—shattered the Antigonid dream. The battle set the stage for the Hellenistic world: Ptolemaic Egypt, Seleucid Asia, Antigonid Macedonia, and the rump kingdom of Lysimachus. A turning point that reverberates through the next two centuries.
