History is under siege, and Mike Bird is taking a stand. In the launch episode of Premier Unbelievable’s podcast, the host of Ask NT Wright Anything joins Tristan Hughes, presenter of The Ancients, to explore the violent aftermath of Alexander the Great’s death. With no undisputed heir, Alexander’s generals, soldiers and family plunge the empire into crisis. Perdiccas rises as regent, Meleager meets a brutal end, Ptolemy claims Egypt, and rival commanders divide the conquered world at the Partition of Babylon. Then comes one of antiquity’s most audacious heists: the seizure of Alexander’s body and magnificent funeral carriage. Packed with mutiny, ambition, assassinations, elephants and intrigue, this opening chapter reveals how quickly Alexander’s empire began to fracture and why the Wars of the Successors remain among antiquity’s most extraordinary struggles.Subscribe & Support👉 Support thought-provoking conversations and help keep the show going at www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donate💡🎧 Never miss an episode!
