Answer:

His generals fought amongst themselves until the empire collapsed.

Explanation:

Alexander the Great The Macedonian conqueror died in dark circumstances. The oldest writings make clear evidence of a slow death product of a poisoning, leaving an unconsolidated empire. Control over various regions was weak at best, and there were regions of northern Asia Minor that were never under Macedonian dominion. When dying without clearly naming an heir, he was succeeded by his half brother Philip III Arrideo (323-317 BC), who was a person with intellectual disability, and his posthumous son Alexander IV (323-309 BC). . The real power was in the hands of their generals, the so-called diádocos (successors), who began a ruthless struggle for supremacy that would lead to the division of Alexander's empire and its division into a series of kingdoms, among which would end up being imposed Ptolemaic Egypt , the Seleucid Empire and the antigonid Macedonia.
