Alexander died or was assassinated at the age of 32. His generals divided his empire amongst themselves, and whereas Alexander had wanted to convert his empire to Greek culture, apart from the ruling Macedonian upper class, the various peoples continued on with their own cultures.

Who did Alexander the great defeat?
The common answer is 'nobody', however there is a question mark over why, after allegedly defeating King Porus of Paurava, he gave his kingdom back back to him, conquered more land and gave it to him, and gave him the land of his own local ally King Taxiles of Taxila. It would seem that the Battle o Hydaspes was a best a draw, if not a defeat for Alexander, and the terms of settlement were that Alexander deliver land and service to Porus before being permitted to move on.

Who conquered the Indus valley from King Darius and the Persian Empire?
Apparently Alexander the Great conquered it and gave it to the local King Porus.Another view:That is the conundrum. The Persian Empire had ceased to exist by then and Darius had been murdered by his own princes. Alexander was in fact attacking King Porus to strip him of the northern Indus Valley. He allegedly defeated Porus and amazingly gave it back to him and threw in the added gift of the kingdom of his own loyal ally King Taxiles who had helped him defeat Porus. This is a befuddled story which suggests that Alexander didn't defeat Porus or conquer the Indus Valley.
