How did the Greek empire come to a end?

Greece was never an empire. Greece consisted of little city-states united by a common language and traditions, but they were never united under one ruler. Each city-state had it's own king or queen. You are probably referring to Alexander The Great's empire? Alexander was Macedonian, not Greek, so his was the Macedonian Empire, not the Greek Empire. The Macedonian Empire (which included some Greek city-states) ended when Alexander died in in 323BC - with no heir, the generals fought amongst themselves and ended up dividing his hard-earned empire into tiny chunks. Alexander's Macedonian Empire spanned across Macedonia, Greece, Egypt and Persia. With Alexander being vain, he named cities after himself (Alexandria, etc) so people would remember him.


What would have happened if Alexander had been as interested in ruling as he was in conquered?

Alexander first had to conquer the empire to rule it. By the time he had finished the conquest, he died. So we would have to imagine what he might have done if he had lived to fully implement the areas he had already begun - to Hellenise the empire as a civilising influence on society.

How did Alexander unite the Greeks and the Persians?
