Hellenism/Hellenic was their word for Greek. The kingdoms which arose from Alexander's empire after his death were called Hellenistic as they were based on Greek civilisation. However this was superficial as most of the peoples in the ex-Persian territories retained their old ways - only the upper classes adopted Greek culture. So the word Hellenistic is used instead of Hellenic to indicate the partial culture 'like Hellenic'.

After Alexander the Great's death, his vast empire was divided among his generals, leading to the formation of three major kingdoms: the Ptolemaic Kingdom in Egypt, the Seleucid Empire in Persia, and the Antigonid Kingdom in Macedon. These kingdoms are referred to as Hellenistic because they were heavily influenced by Greek culture, language, and governance, which spread throughout the regions Alexander conquered. The term "Hellenistic" reflects the blending of Greek and local cultures that occurred during this period, showcasing the lasting impact of Alexander's conquests.
