Patent nonsense. This hoax article needs to be deleted ASAP. There's absolutely no such thing as "Macedonian Pakistan". There was no such era. Pakistan was created in 1947 (incl. the name), so there was no "Pakistan" before that. On top of that, the article contains nothing more than a few links of battles Alexander fought in the area on the soil which happesn to be located on soil of what today is "Pakistan", aka the post-1947 nation. There is no reason that I can possibly think of that could merit the keeping of this nonsensical "article". Pseudo-historical nonsense at its best. The "new" user who created this article created this similarily hoax article as well (which is being AfD'd too). - LouisAragon (talk) 02:03, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

- Delete The topic of this article seems to be already explained in Indo-Greek Kingdom, Indian campaign of Alexander the Great and other articles. Agree with nom that the title is imagined. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 04:43, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

- Delete Not exactly a hoax. Certainly Alexander made conquests in what is now Pakistan; we cover those under their common names.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:16, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
