Who conquered the Persian Empire and most of the world?

Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire, but he did not conquer 'most of the world' - he did not get near east Asia, he did not conquer Europe, he did not conquer most of Africa, he had never even heard of North and South America or the Pacific. Addition: The typical expression is that Alexander the Great conquered "most of the known world" meaning that the majority of the areas that he did not conquer were not civilized at that time. Further: Alexander wanted to take India, but his army refused, and is recorded to have planned on moving through Europe, with Carthage and north Africa, Italy, Sicily and Spain as targets. Even he did not think that he had conquered 'most of the known world'.
