Ah, what do they know? I mean they're only...Greek...

Nah, the reason Alexander is considered Greek, is because he spread Hellenistic culture all over central asia and the known world. So therefore is Greek. Even if the Greeks didn't feel like he was. But in my opinion, that's just because they got their asses handed to them by both his father and him.
