Years: 333BCE - 190BCE
A series of other conquests of varying lengths follows in the Persian Gulf region.
Alexander the Great sends a fleet from India in 325 BCE to follow the eastern, or Persian, coast of the gulf up to the mouth of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and sends other ships to explore the Arab side of the waterway.
The temporary Greek presence in the area increases Western interest in the gulf during the next two centuries.
Alexander's successors, however, do not control the area long enough to make the gulf a part of the Greek world.
