Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great is truly a man that deserves to be called "the Great."  This Macedonian king led his troops into battle and fought alongside them, showing that he was not just a commander telling his men what to do and how it should be done.  Alexander of Macedon never lost a single battle throughout his rule, which has made him one of the greatest military leaders to ever live.  He created one of the largest empires to exist in ancient times.  Alexander had a lust for a vast empire, and he was brilliant enough of a leader to take his army to India and across the Hindu Kush Mountains all the way from Greece, without once losing a battle, and also causing the death of the Persian King Darius.
