Macedon was a prosperous region to the north of Greece,who's first recorded king was Perdiccas I. The kings after him continued to establish control of Macedon, until the reign of Philip III. Philip expanded Macedonian influence into Greece.He planned to invade the Persian Empire,but was assassinated. The task fell to Philip's son Alexander the Great. After retaking Greece, and campaigning against the tribes to the north,Alexander invaded and seized the Persian Empire,as well as parts of India. His empire fell apart after his untimely death. Macedon survived as a kingdom until the reign of King Perseas, who was defeated by the Romans.
