Explanation

The Peloponnesian War ended in 404 BCE, after which Athens and Sparta weakened and declined. Philip II of Macedonia conquered Greece after defeating the Greek forces at Chaeronea in 338 BCE. Alexander III became king in 336 BCE, so the correct order is the Peloponnesian War ending, Athens and Sparta declining, Philip II conquering Greece, and Alexander becoming king.
