[00:00:00]A peasant girl named Roxana from Bactria, modern-day Afghanistan, was captured after Alexander the Great conquered her father's fortress in 327 BC.

[00:00:11]Alexander saw her among the captives. He married her within days, not as a concubine, but as his legitimate wife, shocking his Macedonian generals who considered it an insult to marry a foreign prisoner.

[00:00:24]Roxana became queen of the largest empire the ancient world had ever seen.

[00:00:30]She had been a prisoner one week earlier.

[00:00:32]Her son was declared heir to Alexander's empire before Alexander died. A captured girl from a mountain fortress became the mother of the would-be heir to the ancient world.
