Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
He conquered from Macedonia all the way to about modern India in a short period of time!.

He spread Greek/Hellenistic culture all over the empire which impacted law, government, that kind of thing for a very long time!.

He intergrated more Asian/Persian ideas into his military and empire!. He was very open minded towards integration of other cultures and races, although some of reasons may have been more political than ideological!.

Conquered Darius' Persian armies, essentially eliminating the threat of a Persian invasion of Europe which had loomed for centuries!. This allowed for the continued cultural, political, and religious development of Western thinking!.

Cut the Gordian knot!. This established the power of physical force and brute reasoning over spiritualism and religious mysteries!. A dubious accomplishment that still has left it's mark on the world!.

Suffered defeat in India!. This defeat came about due to the distance from Europe and the lack of supply lines!. It essentially established the borders of European imperialism during that era of technology!. Borders that remained in tact through the time of the Roman Empire!.
