Alexander stopped. And then so did his main general. But then the empire that was governing India collapsed under it's own weight and the Greeks invaded again and they finally completed Alexander's legacy.

I thought the diadochi were largely inept and prone to infighting (interfighting?), but never really read about them, maybe because they looked so trivial next to what followed, maybe I'll check it out later

Well the thing is the successor states, especially Seleucid empire was NOT inept. They conquered far and wide in the east, but they had to give independence to many vassal states ie. Greco-bactria.

Selecid Empire was pretty beastly man.

They invented so much imperial iconography, including calling themselves living gods, monumental plastics (like the Halicarnassus mausoleum), and state propaganda (Antiochus I's depiciton of elephants on his staters following his defeat of the Celts).
