Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Although he is often only remembered for being the father of Alexander the Great, Philip II of Macedon (reigned 359 BCE-336 BCE) was an accomplished king and military commander in his own right, setting the stage for his son’s victory over Darius III and the conquest of Persia.
