Transoxiana
{'answer_start': array([-1]), 'answer_text': array([''], dtype=object)}
The name Transoxiana stuck in Western consciousness because of the exploits of Alexander the Great, who extended Greek culture into the region with his invasion in the 4th century BC; Transoxiana was the most north-eastern point of the Hellenistic culture until the Arab invasion. During the Sassanid Empire, it was often called Sogdiana, a provincial name taken from the Achaemenid Empire, and used to distinguish it from nearby Bactria.
