OverviewAI-generated

Cassander (355 BCE–296 BCE) was a male member of the Antipatrid dynasty who served as a regent and held the position of king of Macedonia. He was the son of Antipater and the husband of Thessalonike of Macedon. Their children included Philip IV of Macedon, Alexander V of Macedon, and Antipater I of Macedon. Cassander had siblings named Eurydice of Egypt, Phila, Nicaea of Macedon, and Iollas. He spoke Ancient Greek and died in Macedonia from edema.

The subject is described in sources such as the Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary, The Nuttall Encyclopædia, and the 11th edition of Encyclopædia Britannica. A separate entry for an author named George Cassander (1513–1566) lists works including *Consultatio de articulis religionis inter catholicos et protestantes controversis* and *Cassander evangelicus, sive in plaerisq*.
