Alexander the Great
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
Alexander the Great (356-323 BC) was a military leader of the ancient world who was then known to the people in Europe and the Middle East.
A 23rd century analogy made regarding the creation of the Augments, a race known for their superior ability and ambition, was compared to creating a group of Alexanders or Napoléons. (TOS: "Space Seed")
Spock put him in one line with Ramses, Julius Caesar, Napoléon Bonaparte, Adolf Hitler and Lee Kuan to show that Earth history is full of men seeking absolute power. (TOS: "Patterns of Force")
Garth of Izar similarly compared Alexander to Caesar, Napoléon Bonaparte, Adolf Hitler, Lee Kuan, and Krotus when describing his own plans for universal conquest. (TOS: "Whom Gods Destroy")
It was later revealed, in 2269, that the immortal Flint was, in fact, the former Alexander. (TOS: "Requiem for Methuselah")
