Best Answer

Second and First Centuries BCE, but Alexander's empire had fragmented upon his death into four smaller empires, one of which did not last very long. Of the three remaining empires, the Romans conquered the Macedonian Empire rather easily, with Macedonia becoming a Roman province in 146 BCE; the same year that Carthage and Corinth were destroyed. The Selucid Empire in the Middle East was next, and another relatively easy conquest for the Romans. The Ptolemaic Empire lasted longest until the death of Cleopatra, and Egypt finally became a Roman possession.
