		This is evident by the events which occurred at the Opis banquet in 324 B. Several of Alexander's Greek officers resented Alexander's “orientalizing,” especially his adoption of Persian dress and customs, his marriage to a Persian princess, and his attempt to incorporate Persians and other peoples in his army.
		At the banquet, held at Opis, Persia, Greeks and Persians sat side by side and Alexander prayed to the gods that Persians and Greeks might hereafter live in harmony.
		Alexander's efforts to become friendly with the Persians, and later the Egyptians, was actually a wise political gesture designed to ensure their loyalty to his rule.

		Further, this most obviously historical of the extant romances is particularly rich in idealistic depictions of society that can be set against then-current contradictions, such as the spread of despotism and the decline of even quasi-democratic institutions, and, for the Greeks, the tension between their rich cultural tradition and the realities of Roman power.

		He is forced illegally out of his proper office by his brother working with the corrupt Persian princess Arsake, which drives Thyamis to become leader of the infamous Boukoloi.
