In 342 BC, when the <a href="/wiki/Athens" title="Athens">Athenians</a> tried to assume control of the <a href="/wiki/Euboea" title="Euboea">Euboean</a> towns and expel the pro-Macedonian rulers, he sent Macedonian troops to stop them. In the autumn of the same year, Antipater went to <a href="/wiki/Delphi" title="Delphi">Delphi</a>, as Philip's representative in the <a href="/wiki/Amphictyonic_League" class="mw-redirect" title="Amphictyonic League">Amphictyonic League</a>, a religious organization to which Macedon had been admitted in 346 BC. </p><p>After the triumphal Macedonian victory at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Chaeronea_(338_BC)" title="Battle of Chaeronea (338 BC)">Battle of Chaeronea</a> in 338 BC, Antipater was sent as ambassador to Athens (337–336 BC) to negotiate a peace treaty<sup id="cite_ref-EB1911_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EB1911-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and return the bones of the Athenians who had fallen in the battle. </p><p>He started as a great friend to both the young Alexander and the boy's mother, <a href="/wiki/Olympias" title="Olympias">Olympias</a>, and aided Alexander in the struggle to secure his succession after Philip's death, in 336 BC. </p><p>He joined <a href="/wiki/Parmenion" title="Parmenion">Parmenion</a> in advising Alexander the Great not to set out on his Asiatic expedition until he had provided by marriage for the succession to the throne. On the king's departure in 334 BC, he was left regent in Macedonia and made "general (<i><a href="/wiki/Strategos" title="Strategos">strategos</a></i>) of Europe", positions he held until 323 BC. The European front was to prove initially quite agitated, and Antipater also had to send reinforcements to the king, as he did while the king was at <a href="/wiki/Gordium" class="mw-redirect" title="Gordium">Gordium</a> in the winter of 334–333 BC. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Achaemenid_Empire" title="Achaemenid Empire">Persian</a> <a href="/wiki/Naval_fleet" title="Naval fleet">fleet</a> under <a href="/wiki/Memnon_of_Rhodes" title="Memnon of Rhodes">Memnon of Rhodes</a> and <a href="/wiki/Pharnabazus_of_Phrygia" class="mw-redirect" title="Pharnabazus of Phrygia">Pharnabazus</a> was apparently a considerable danger for Antipater, bringing war in the <a href="/wiki/Aegean_Sea" title="Aegean Sea">Aegean Sea</a> and threatening war in Europe. Luckily for the regent, Memnon died during the siege of <a href="/wiki/Mytilene" title="Mytilene">Mytilene</a> on the isle of <a href="/wiki/Lesbos_Island" class="mw-redirect" title="Lesbos Island">Lesbos</a> and the remaining fleet dispersed in 333 BC, after Alexander's victory at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Issus" title="Battle of Issus">Battle of Issus</a>. </p><p>More dangerous enemies were nearer home; tribes in <a href="/wiki/Thrace" title="Thrace">Thrace</a> rebelled in 332 BC, led by Memnon of Thrace, the Macedonian governor of the region, followed shortly by the revolt of <a href="/wiki/Agis_III" title="Agis III">Agis III</a>, king of <a href="/wiki/Sparta" title="Sparta">Sparta</a>. </p><p>The Spartans, who were not members of the <a href="/wiki/League_of_Corinth" title="League of Corinth">League of Corinth</a> and had not participated in Alexander's expedition, saw in the Asian campaign the long-awaited chance to take back control over the <a href="/wiki/Peloponnese" title="Peloponnese">Peloponnese</a> after the disastrous defeats at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Leuctra" title="Battle of Leuctra">Battle of Leuctra</a> and <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Mantinea_(362_BC)" title="Battle of Mantinea (362 BC)">Battle of Mantinea</a>. The Persians generously funded Sparta's ambitions, making possible the formation of an army 20,000 strong. After assuming virtual control of <a href="/wiki/Crete" title="Crete">Crete</a>, Agis tried to build an anti-Macedonian front. While Athens remained neutral, the <a href="/wiki/Achaea" title="Achaea">Achaeans</a>, <a href="/wiki/Arcadia_(ancient_region)" class="mw-redirect" title="Arcadia (ancient region)">Arcadians</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Elis" title="Ancient Elis">Elis</a> became his allies, with the important exception of <a href="/wiki/Megalopolis,_Greece" title="Megalopolis, Greece">Megalopolis</a>, the staunchly anti-Spartan capital of Arcadia. In 331 BC Agis started to besiege the city with his entire army, forcing Antipater to act. </p><p>So as not to have two enemies simultaneously, Antipater <a href="/wiki/Pardon" title="Pardon">pardoned</a> Memnon and even let him keep his office in Thrace, while great sums of money were sent to him by Alexander. This helped to create, with <a href="/wiki/Thessaly" title="Thessaly">Thessalian</a> help and many mercenaries, a force double that of Agis, which Antipater in person led south in 330 BC to confront the Spartans. In the spring of that year, the two armies clashed near <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Megalopolis" title="Battle of Megalopolis">Megalopolis</a>. Agis fell with many of his best soldiers, but not without inflicting heavy losses on the Macedonians. </p><p>Utterly defeated, the Spartans sued for peace; the latter's answer was to negotiate directly with the League of Corinth, but the Spartan emissaries preferred to treat directly with Alexander, who imposed on Sparta's allies a penalty of 120 <a href="/wiki/Talent_(weight)" class="mw-redirect" title="Talent (weight)">talents</a> and the entrance of Sparta in the league. </p><p>Alexander appears to have been quite jealous of Antipater's victory; according to <a href="/wiki/Plutarch" title="Plutarch">Plutarch</a>, the king wrote in a letter to his viceroy: "It seems, my friends that while we have been conquering Darius here, there has been a battle of mice in Arcadia". </p><p>Antipater was disliked for supporting <a href="/wiki/Oligarchy" title="Oligarchy">oligarchs</a> and <a href="/wiki/Tyrant" title="Tyrant">tyrants</a> in Greece, but he also worked with the League of Corinth, built by Philip. In addition, his previously close relationship with the ambitious <a href="/wiki/Olympias" title="Olympias">Olympias</a> greatly deteriorated. Whether from jealousy or from the necessity of guarding against the evil consequences of the dissension between Olympias and Antipater, in 324 BC, Alexander ordered the latter to lead fresh troops into Asia, while <a href="/wiki/Craterus" title="Craterus">Craterus</a>, in charge of discharged veterans returning home, was appointed to take over the regency in Macedon.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> When Alexander suddenly died in <a href="/wiki/Babylon" title="Babylon">Babylon</a> in 323 BC however, Antipater was able to forestall the transfer of power.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_6-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Some later historians, such as <a href="/wiki/Justin_(historian)" title="Justin (historian)">Justin</a> in his <a href="/wiki/Historia_Philippicae_et_Totius_Mundi_Origines_et_Terrae_Situs" class="mw-redirect" title="Historia Philippicae et Totius Mundi Origines et Terrae Situs">Historia Philippicae et Totius Mundi Origines et Terrae Situs</a> blamed Antipater for the death of Alexander, accusing him of murdering him through poison.

Furthermore, the southern Greek coalition was led by a talented general and one-time mercenary named <a href="/wiki/Leosthenes" title="Leosthenes">Leosthenes</a>, who had fought under Alexander and had seen first-hand the functions of the Macedonian war machine. </p><p>An initial engagement with this coalition around the historic pass of <a href="/wiki/Thermopylae" title="Thermopylae">Thermopylae</a> saw Antipater's Thessalian cavalry defect to the opposing side. Already outnumbered and now without a cavalry contingent, Antipater fought a token battle but was ultimately defeated and forced to retreat north to the Thessalian city of Lamia. Behind its stout defenses he endured a siege. By some unknown means he began desperately passing correspondence to would-be allies through the Athenian siege lines. In 322 BC he was relieved when <a href="/wiki/Leonnatus" title="Leonnatus">Leonnatus</a>, the satrap of <a href="/wiki/Hellespontine_Phrygia" title="Hellespontine Phrygia">Hellespontine Phrygia</a>, responded to his call for aid and arrived in southern Thessaly with a force to break the investment. </p><p>Although Leonnatus fell in the ensuing battle, the Athenian coalition had been forced to use the entirety of its dwindling army (many of the Aetolian and Thessalian contingents having left the siege to tend to the harvest) to face him. Leonnatus' infantry retreated into rough country where the Aetolian and Thessalian cavalry could not pursue them, and survived the debacle largely unscathed. </p><p>This turn of events allowed Antipater to slip out of the walls of Lamia before striking north for Macedonia, where he awaited the arrival of further reinforcements from Asia. Along the way he assumed control of Leonnatus' infantry corps, absorbing them into the remnants of his initial army. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Craterus" title="Craterus">Craterus</a>, another decorated general, had also received Antipater's call for aid and arrived at Pella with a force of 16000 discharged veterans who had marched and fought under Alexander. The two generals made common cause, and to cement this new alliance Antipater married his daughter Phila to Craterus. </p><p>The two then led a massive, combined force south to fight a final, decisive battle against the southern Greeks. Antipater defeated them at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Crannon" title="Battle of Crannon">Battle of Crannon</a> in 322 BC,<sup id="cite_ref-EB1911_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EB1911-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> with Craterus' help, and broke up the coalition. At a peace treaty in the ruined city of Thebes, Antipater negotiated with an Athenian delegation led by <a href="/wiki/Phocion" title="Phocion">Phocion</a> and Demades. Here he imposed a rule of oligarchy upon Athens and demanded the surrender of <a href="/wiki/Demosthenes" title="Demosthenes">Demosthenes</a> and Hypereides (the foremost instigators of the revolt), the former committing suicide to escape capture, while the latter was imprisoned before having his tongue ripped from his mouth in a brutal execution. Later in the same year Antipater and Craterus were engaged in a mopping-up campaign against recalcitrant pockets of Aetolian resurgence <sup id="cite_ref-EB1911_5-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EB1911-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> when they received the news from <a href="/wiki/Antigonus_I_Monophthalmus" title="Antigonus I Monophthalmus">Antigonus</a> in <a href="/wiki/Anatolia" title="Anatolia">Asia Minor</a> that Perdiccas contemplated making himself outright ruler of the empire.<sup id="cite_ref-EB1911_5-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EB1911-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Antipater and Craterus accordingly concluded peace with the Aetolians (much to the chagrin of future of Macedonian rulers) and went to war against Perdiccas, allying themselves with <a href="/wiki/Ptolemy_I_Soter" title="Ptolemy I Soter">Ptolemy</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Satrap" title="Satrap">satrap</a> of <a href="/wiki/Egypt" title="Egypt">Egypt</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-EB1911_5-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EB1911-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Antipater married another of his daughters (Eurydike) to Ptolemy to strengthen this new alliance. Together with Craterus and his son Cassander, he then crossed over into Asia at the head of a considerable force in 321 BC. While in Phrygia, this army was divided in two; one under Craterus marching east into Cappadocia to face Eumenes, while the later under Antipater struck south to fight Perdiccas. While still in <a href="/wiki/Syria" title="Syria">Syria</a>, Antipater received two letters that drastically changed the power dynamic of the successor struggle at that point; firstly that Perdiccas had been murdered by his own soldiers in Egypt, and secondly that in one of the greatest upsets of the Hellenistic age, Craterus had fallen in battle against <a href="/wiki/Eumenes" title="Eumenes">Eumenes</a> (Diodorus xviii. 25–39).<sup id="cite_ref-EB1911_5-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EB1911-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Regent_of_the_Empire">Regent of the Empire</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Antipater&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Regent of the Empire"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In the <a href="/wiki/Partition_of_Triparadisus" title="Partition of Triparadisus">Partition of Triparadisus</a> (321 BC), Antipater participated in a new division of Alexander's great kingdom.
