alexander the great enjoyed almost super - human achievements. he did experience problems. if you
were an advisor to alexander, knowing what you know now, what would be the best advice you could
provide him?

• push your troops harder - theyre too lazy!
• move quicker and farther. the world is yours if you use horses to reach distant lands.
• dont bite off more than you can chew - now that you have so much territory, stay put!
• you cant lead on horseback - get down there and fight with your troops!

Explanation:

To determine the best advice, we analyze Alexander the Great's situation. He had a vast empire, and overextending (biting off more than one can chew) was a risk. The option "Don't bite off more than you can chew - now that you have so much territory, stay put!" addresses the issue of managing his already large empire instead of further overexpansion, which aligns with the challenges of governing a vast territory. Other options are illogical: pushing troops harder (they weren't lazy), moving quicker/farther (would increase overexpansion), and fighting on foot (his leadership style was effective on horseback for strategy).

Answer:

C. Don't bite off more than you can chew- now that you have so much territory, stay put!
