Who? Which one? Apollon? I didn't follow the thread. If it was Apollon,don't mind him. He will be rude and arrogant to you.You're a decent member so I'm not going to be rude with you but the other guy was deliberately behaving like a street hound and then Jamahir decided to start talking about muh Greek culture, it was inappropriately timed and just plain weird for him to focus on that of all things.
There were two reasons why the Greeks stopped and didn't go any further:Also, yes the Macedonian Empire was quite extensive but it barely touched the fringe of the sub-continent, when the Seleucids later tried to advance further the Mauryans not only steamrolled their advance but then beat them back too, going as far as Kandahar. That's all I said in this regard. India wasn't conquered by Greeks.
1.The soldiers were tired and wanted to go back home. They had been fighting for years.
2.The information about the kingdoms in the subcontinent and the encounters with some of them,gave them a picture of masses of armies and a huge land. They knew it would be extremely tough to keep going east.
