What did Aristotle influence?

Aristotle influenced all of Western society, considered one of the greatest philosophical minds to have ever existed. His contributions centered around Ethics, Logic & Reasoning, politics, and metaphysics. He mentored Alexander the great and-with the aid from his mentor Plato and the one who mentored him, Socrates-laid the foundation for Western philosophy. In doing so, Aristotle inspired many Greek philosophers who came later on, as well as setting the basis for many religious teachings. Both Christian and Islamic theologians can trace their views back to Aristotle.
