4. Describe relations between Egypt and Persia before Alexander came on the scene.



The relations before Alexander came in between Egypt and Persia are bad. Persia would bully Egypt and would never stop. They both hated each other but neither could conquer the other. The Egyptians hated the Persians because they didn’t believe in their gods. The Persians would disrespect the Egyptian gods. Alexander the Great came to Egypt so they could back him up when he went into Persia. They saw him as a savior and  honored him and the son of the sun god.  Alexander then created the city of Alexandria which became the largest port in the known world. This city became the learning center of the world. This is how the relations of Persia and Egypt were before Alexander came.
