It was Alexander the great. He conquered the Achaemenidenid (Persian) Empire, which was the biggest empire antiquity ever had. It covered Turkey, Armenia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan up to the river Indus, Tajikistan, Kirghistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, part of Kazakhstan, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine Jordan and Egypt. Alexander died a few years after his conquests. These were divided into the kingdom of Pergamon in western Turkey, the Ptolemaic kingdom in Egypt and the Seleucid Empire, which covered the rest. These kingdoms were ruled by Greeks and have been called Hellenistic states by Historians. This started the Hellenistic period, which was a period in which the Middle East became influenced by Greek culture. The term Hellenistic is derived from Hellas, the Greek name for Greece.
