Napoleon ran a modern civiliziation, under progressive and enlightened ideologies. He championed liberalism, had the civil law system essentially re-kindled into existence in Europe after Justinian; and forged France under his control after a rowdy revolution, in an impressive act of political cunning. Even more cunning was his ability to spread liberal ideals in Europe, in the face of absolutist powers such as Prussia and Austria.

Alexander was a young-buck fucktard who vaguely ruled over territories who had been governed by Satraps and governors anyway, with no real sense of allegiance to Persian rule: easy pickings. Alexander was a military genius, granted, but he was no whizz in actually administrating and left it to his cronies: Selcuid, Ptolemy, etc. Therefore, the circumstances are different, and Napoleon had much more to deal with, and handled it in a more complex and impactful way than Alexander, not to mention the age gap between the leaders.
