Was he Macedonian or Greek?
When I say Macedonian or Greek, I mean from what city-state or area did he come from and how does it compare to today's modern map, is it in Macedonia or Greece? |

alexander was born in pella, macedonia a city-state of greece. alexander was a greek macedonian, if that's what you were asking for. same way socrates was a greek athenian and so on.
stating "macedonian" as another ethnicity or nationality is completely wrong |

Alexander was heir to the throne of Macedon, a kingdom of a Greek culture.
And then he went on to roflstomp Persia and expand all the way to the Indus River that's shared between India and Pakistan. |

So he's Greek.
So can his Empire be called the Greek Empire? |

Macedon was Greek.
The new Macedonia is a puppet set up by the US government during the Balkan conflicts. |

Well, Phillip applied the pan-hellenic idea and united almost every Greek city-state to form to create a strong Hellenic nation to fight against the Persians and peace between the city-states. I believe it is right calling it the Greek Empire but Macedonian is more right because the whole Hellenic world was under Macedonian rule. |
