Alexander was from the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia.(a user confused Greek-Macedonia with the modern republic of (Slav/Albanian)Macedonia. No relation at all).
Alexander unified the Greek states under his hegemony and he was appointed by the League of Corinth as General Emperor of all the Greeks.
He concurred a big part of the Balkans. (including modern day Albania, modern day Bulgaria, and modern day Slavic/Albanian-Macedonia), Asia Minor, Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq and Iran), Middle East(modern day Syria, Palestine, Israel, Jordan,) North India(modern day Pakistan) Afghanistan and Egypt.
There are excellent documentaries you can watch. The most recent that has all the information you want is from Histroy Channel
Taken from the History Channel site (I am coping exactly as it was published).
"Engineering An Empire: Greece: Age of Alexander"
Airs on Monday, October 23, at 9:00 PM
"In 438 BC the Parthenon was completed. This masterpiece is the crowning achievement for the Greek people. Without Alexander the Great, it is possible Greece's Golden Era would have been just a footnote in history.
Tens of thousands would die during Alexander's relentless attacks on Persia and Egypt, yet, his armies carried Greek life, culture and values far abroad and this empire became known as the "Hellenistic" world. Greece's amazing engineering achievements and ideas are still with us today."

{Do not confuse the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia or Macedon (which was the birth place of Alexander) with the modern state of (Slavic/Albanian)Macedonia as they are not related at all. The confusion has started a few years ago because that small state started to use the name “Republic of Macedonia” causing a great confusion with authentic Macedonia in Greece.}
