Hyrcanus and Aristobulus, the two sons of the Jewish King Yannai (Johanan Hyrcanus, 1st century BCE), got the Romans involved in Judea when they asked the Romans to settle a dispute. At first the Romans were cordial; and they actually became party to a military treaty with Judea (Talmud, Avodah Zara 9a). A couple of decades later, however, they unilaterally abrogated the treaty, and placed Roman governors over the land who afflicted the Jews with crushing taxation (Talmud, Yoma 9a). In the first two centuries CE, things got worse, with the Romans destroying the Second Temple and temporarily outlawing Torah-observances, and the Jews attempting to revolt. The Romans destroyed large numbers of Jewish communities in the Holy Land, and they killed some of the leading Jewish sages.
(During those times that the Romans didn't interfere with the internal life of the Jews, the reason was because the Romans wanted to receive their taxes. That, and making sure none of their colonies planned rebellions, was usually the only thing that the Romans were really concerned about.)
The Romans occupied Syria for approximately 701 years. The area called Syria in ancient times was more or less the whole territory today called the Levant, not the boundaries of the present day country of Syria. Pompey added it to the Roman Empire in 64 BC. It remained a Roman possession under Byzantine rule until the Islamic invasion in 637 AD.

Julius Caesers achievement in Rome was to take it over and dictate it. He succeed. After achieving that he began to take over other places. One way he did this was by befriending Cleopatra thereby adding egypt into the empire with no war.
