Hahahaha Hellenic history.
So many different populations contributed to Alexanders empire and your telling me its Hellenic history in the end
We have had Alexander as hero since atleast Skanderbegs time, back then we had no quarrels with Greeks in the first place. Its obvious our ancestors were part of this characters army and marched all the way to India. This is also what Skanderbeg says.

The fact that they had an impact to you, doesn't mean that they are Albanian. Alexander the Great had an impact everywhere he step foot on, as well as some many other historical figures from antiquity since modern times.
Pathetic impact is '' he might have ancestry of his mother's father blablabla'' so therefore he is Albanian, that's pathetic.
Pathetic is also ''we have him on our currency, so he is ours''
Pathetic is also trying to discredit everything Greek on them, so you can ''fight'' who will take it then. All these years here, and this is all I read about. Discrediting everything Greek, and the worst of that, there is no proof.

Yes it is
Alexander's empires culture was Hellenic/Hellenistic and the official language was Greek.
Alexander recieved classical Greek education,he was trained by the philosopher Greek Aristotelis.
All Greek city states participated in Alexanders conquest except the Spartans becuase they wanted to be the leaders and Alexander
refused that role to them.
Alexander came from a royal family of Macedonian Greeks who belonged to the Argead Dynasty which had their origins in
Argos"Peloponnese"

Mother of Alexander the Great was Epirote who in ancient accounts they were referred/regarded as barbarians, a well known definition for non Greeks.
Modern greeks are stuck up with their history that keep on claiming non Greek elements, even Arvanites are not saved from their nationalistic agendas, just figure.The Epirotes, The 5th-century BC Athenian historian Thucydides describes them as "barbarians" in his History of the Peloponnesian War,[16] as does Strabo in his Geography.
