Helenistic influence

Hellenistic influence refers to the spread of Greek culture, language, art, architecture, and ideas following the conquests of Alexander the Great (4th century BCE). As Greek culture expanded across regions like Egypt, Persia, and India, it blended with local traditions, creating a rich, diverse cultural landscape. This influence shaped areas such as science, philosophy, art, and governance, leaving a lasting impact that helped form the foundation of modern Western civilization and contributed to a global exchange of ideas and innovations.
