"Hellas" is the name of "Greece", in Greek. "Hellenistic" means "about Greece or Greek culture".

Prior to Alexander the great, "Hellas" was a region containing a number of sometimes-warring city-states. The most notable, and most opposed, were Sparta and Athens. Most of the mainland states were either neutral or under the sway of Sparta; the island cities were predominantly aligned with Athens. Things came to a major conflict during the Peloponnesian Wars, from about 431BCE to 404BCE.
