The Eternal Shadow of Alexander: How His Empire Shaped the World After His Death. AI-Generated.
Alexander died in Babylon under mysterious circumstances. Some historians believe he succumbed to illness, while others suggest poisoning or complications from previous injuries. Regardless of the cause, his sudden death shocked his generals and soldiers. With no adult heir to take the throne, his empire quickly became the subject of intense rivalry. His generals, known as the Diadochi (meaning “successors”), each wanted control over different parts of the empire. Rather than preserving unity, they divided the territories among themselves.

The Sowing of Comala: When the Earth Remembers Sins
In the region of Comala, where the sun beats down with the force of a bitter memory and the earth seems to have forgotten how to be fertile, desperation has a familiar taste: of dust, of salty sweat, of broken promises. Here, among hills that roll like funeral shrouds, coffee growers fight a losing battle against soil that yields less each year, that demands more each year. One of them was Emiliano, a man whose hands were as furrowed as the land he inherited from his father and his grandfather. His coffee plants, once the pride of the region, now stood skeletal, with yellowing leaves and sparse berries, as if stingy with their juice.

After securing control of Bactria and Sogdiana, Alexander turned his attention eastward. He had long been fascinated by stories of India — a land of immense wealth, powerful kings, and exotic cultures. Greek historians described India as a place where rivers were vast, armies used elephants in battle, and philosophers lived in deep contemplation. For Alexander, it represented the next great frontier and perhaps the edge of the known world.
