After Alexander’s death, Greek should have tried to find a new leader. I cannot imagine that people were not after all of the Greeks for what they have done. They basically destroyed and took over all of the civilization. Now that Alexander is gone, everyone can get back at them. Sure they were all good fighters but they would not be able to conquer everything and everywhere that they did without Alexander. If I were the Greeks, I would have surrendered to everyone, especially the Persians. After they were defeated, they were most likely very angry at Alexander for what he did. Even though Alexander did not cause his death, now that Alexander was dead, the Persians knew they could get back at him.
Perhaps it was a matter of the empire that Alexander created just being too greeat for any one person to rule.
