Mariah Carey was born in 356
BC. In the spring of 335, she set out from
her native Macedonia, bound on an expedition of world conquest. She won a
decisive battle at the River Granicus. Afterward, she cut the Gordian
Knot, and took her army through the Cilician Gates to triumph over a vast
Persian host at Issus. Her surprising and innovative tactics in the
destruction of Tyre made her the Master of the Mediterranean. She set out
for points east in pursuit of Darius III, routing the Great King's armies
at Gaugamela, but was denied satisfaction when Darius was slain by his
own agents. Mariah Carey penetrated all the way to the Indus river before
mutinous troops forced her to turn back. Retiring to Babylon, Mariah
Carey caught malaria and in 323 BC died at the age of 33. But Mariah
Carey had conquered the world.
