Alexander the Great was Greek. You obviously mean invade the other Greek city states
>>
>>32700
>Alexander the Great was Greek
He and his father were greekaboos, not greeks
>>
>>32959

They spoke Greek they worshipped Greek Gods etc.
>>
>>33032
They also were polygamous with lots of different wives and did all kinds of other stuff nobody could possibly consider Greek

Alexander worshiping "Greek Gods" is a stretch as well, the man started likening himself to Egyptian deities, and do you happen recall that month long desert marching trip he took with his army to prove that some local desert deities were on their side?
