The Hellenistic civilisation was established in the the kingdoms which Alexander's generals established from his empire after his death. They established kingdoms of their own from the ex-Persian empire which Alexander had seized, settling down after much infighting to Egypt, Macedonia, Syria and Pergamon. The word Hellenistic means 'like Hellenic' as it affected only the Macedonian and Greek upper classes, the mass of people continuing their own cultures. Hellenes and Hellenic is what the Greeks called themselves - the word Greek was bestowed on them by Rome.
