Hellenistic kings allowed Greeks to live in the conquered lands and work on them as artists, writers and engineers to publicize the Greek culture in these regions.
Explanation:
Hellenistic kings arose after the death of Alexander the Great, who died without leaving heirs to succeed the throne. Without any successor, the Greek empire was divided into kingdoms. Each kingdom had a king, who was called a Hellenistic king. These kings were Ptolemy, Cassandro and Seleuco. The kings needed to stimulate Greek culture in the territories, especially the conquered territories and for this reason they selected Greeks to live in these places and work as artists, writers and engineers, which would allow them to spread Greek culture.
