Founding cities was one of Alexander's favorite activities. He founded seventeen of them and called them all "Alexandria". While some of these, such as Alexandria (Egypt) flourished, others did not survive to our present day. Over the centuries, other communities followed suit and named new cities after Alexandria (Egypt), or Alexander the Great.

Below is a listing of all the major cities around the world in our present day which are called "Alexandria". Some of these were, however, named after Russian emperors, Popes, or other famous leaders.
