Alexander.
The Macedonian ruler who conquered the Greek city-states and formed the Corinthian League was Philip II of Macedon. He achieved this through a series of military victories, culminating in the Battle of Chaeronea in 338 BC. The Corinthian League was established to unify the Greek states under Macedonian hegemony, allowing them to cooperate in military campaigns, particularly against Persia. Philip's efforts laid the groundwork for his son, Alexander the Great, to further expand the Macedonian Empire.
The famous orator Demosthenes (384-322 BC) spoke out against alliances with Philip II and with Philip's son, Alexander the Great. Athens was conquered, but retained some autonomy under Macedonian rule. Demosthenes exploited anti-Macedonian sentiments for most of his political career.

King Philip II of Macedon was not half Greek; he was Macedonian, and Macedonia was a Greek kingdom in ancient times. While his ancestry and culture were decidedly Greek, he is often considered a part of the broader Hellenic world rather than a mix of Greek and non-Greek heritage. His reign significantly contributed to the unification of the Greek city-states under Macedonian hegemony.
Philip expanded Macedonian control in the Greek world, and he planned to use this combined power to take over the Persian Empire. He was assassinated while preparing the invasion of Asia, and his son Alexanded took it to fruition.

Philip II of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia. Philip united Greece (Hellas), under Macedonian Hegemony and together they conquered Persia.Quote: It is difficult to imagine that Philip II's policy toward Greece was an end in itself. Once his Balkan borders had been secured his general course seems to have been directed toward the establishment of stability in Greece, NOT CONQUEST.~ E.N.Borza, "On the Shadows of Olympus" (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1990) page 230
