    Philip will cry from heaven if he finds out that his son change his proud ancestor's kingdom name into a lame narsistic empire as that...

    Oh wait.... Alexandros is not Philip's son... he was a bastard son of Dios Olimpios and his mother...

    Maybe he will just stick with Makedonia though, as Antigonids didn't explicitly change their kingdom name into Antigonia.....

    I wondered, if the Theos Basileus ton Basileon actually lived, invaded Karchedon, pacified Megas Hellas, burnt Barbaropolis to the ground and kept the Keltoi at bay in the north...

    ARCHE MAKEDONIKON, seems too 'small' to be an adequete name....


    ALL HAIL MAKEDONIA!!!

    But I was pretty sure, if he lives.. invade Kardechoi, Burn Barbarpolis, subjungating Keltoi.... and still had his dynasty in charge until somewhere in X century AD.... We'll have a lot of fun with our interstellar cars now....

    Yes and we would probably have a city on Mars....

    We would have as much civil war as the Balkans had after TIto died, then it would have been divided up by Celts and easterners and the world would be weird, and there would be no interstellar car, because there was no rennaissance.

    You Romaioktonoi see it as your holy duty to shatter the dream of the perfect Romani, I came to shatter yours about the oh-so wonderful Hellenes. No one is perfect not Romani nor Hellene.

    I guess Macedonian Empire, but it would have Persian influence. Alexandros III Megas and his sucessors would also be accompanied with a HUGE title.

    Something like:

    Megas Alexandros! Basileus of the Makedonikoi, Hegemon of the Grecoi, Septamenramen of the Aigyptoi and Shahanshah of the Persioi.

    Although I recall that I read somewhere that he did not assume the title of Shahanshah.

    Hehe, let's not start an unintelligent flamewar, the Germanic tribes won in the end But Alexandros actually adopted a great deal of Persian culture, to the extent of wearing Eastern clothing and pissing his troops off at the same time Also, it is said that he often referred to himself as "King of Asia", probably as a blanket title for Persia, Babylon, e.t.c., but he probably used all the lesser titles just to impress others.
