Hello,

How many titles did he have?

He was king of Macedonia, he was chief in general of the Corinthian league, he was king of Tyre, Pharoah of Egypt, lord of Asia- great king and a few other ones that I haven't mentioned. Son of Zeus? Ah, yes and the king of Babylon.

Did he gain any title in India? He should have done after what happened in the Hydaspes or would that have come directly under the title of Lord of Asia?

Best wishes,
Dean

Did he officially take the titles of King of Tyre and King of Babylon? If they were part of the Persian King's list of titles then I suppose he would have done. Otherwise, I'm not sure whether there's any evidence that he actually took those as titles.

Assuming that he did take all the titles of the Persian Great King, that also means things like "King of Kings, King of all Lands, blah blah blah".

It's too late and I have to go to bed - something to mull over tomorrow, methinks.
