I would have to say answer c. To this day there are still people in the Middle East and even Asia, that speak the Greek language, and consider themselves descendants of Alexander the Great.

Dear,
All of these are best achievements, but for me the last one which has a historical and diachronic value is the oath of Alexander the Great as it has been named. Actually it was the Alexander’s speech at Opis in 324 BC, otherwise known as "Alexander’s Oath".
The main points of his speech are as follows:
-Now that the wars are over, I wish you to find happiness through peace.
-May all mortals live from now on in harmony, as one nation, for the sake of common prosperity.
-Consider the world as your country, with common laws, governed by men of merit, regardless of race.
-I do not distinguish between Greeks and barbarians, as do the narrow-minded.
-I am not interested in the country or race of origin of people.
-I only distinguish people according to their virtues.
-To me every virtuous foreigner is Greek and each non-virtuous Greek is worse than a barbarian.
-If you are ever faced with differences, do not resort to arms, but resolve them peacefully. If need be, I can act as your arbitrator.
-God should not be viewed as an authoritarian ruler, but as our common father.
-As for myself, I consider all persons, black or white, as equals.
-I wish you to be my partners and not just members of our commonwealth.
-As far as I am able, I shall see to it that all my promises come true.
-Regard this oath as a symbol of love.
