No Roman emperor wanted to conquer the lands that Alexander the Great had conquered. The Roman conquests in areas which Alexander had conquered occurred during the period of the Roman Republic, before the period of rule by emperors and before there were Roman emperors. These various conquests, which occurred at separate times, had nothing to do with a desire to conquer Alexander's former territories.

When Alexander died in 323 BC internal rivalries within his empire caused it to splinter into four parts (which were all eventually conquered by the Roman Empire, which was founded in 27 BC by Augustus Caesar the adopted son of Julius Caesar):
- The Antigonid dynasty in Macedon and central Greece.
- The Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt.
- The Seleucid dynasty in Syria and Mesopotamia.
- The Attalid dynasty in Anatolia.
