Yes, the Romans had allies but they never conquered the Persians.
The English Empire (and subsequent British Empire) were never successfully conquered since the country's inception.
The Greek "empire" that was won by Alexander the Great was never conquered. It collapsed and was divided by his generals into independent kingdoms.The Greek "empire" that was won by Alexander the Great was never conquered.

The Romans never conquered the Seleucid Empire.
The Greeks never had an empire. The closest they came to an empire was under Alexander the Great, but even though he conquered a lot of territory, it never became an empire and fell apart after his death. Ancient Greece was a collection of independent city-states and never permanently united.The Greeks never had an empire.

Only the Greek states of the Hellenic League (also called the League of Corinth by historians) which was a federation of most of the Greek states created by Alexander's father, Philip II of Macedon, and were vassals of Macedon, and the Kingdom of Epirus (in western Greece), an ally, had never been part of the Persian Empire. Even Alexander's own kingdom of Macedon, had been part of the Persian Empire. It had been a vassal state of the Persians for nine years (512-493 B.C.) and was conquered by the Persians in 492 B.C. and remained a fully subordinated part of the Persian Empire for thirteen years. The Thracian tribes Alexander's father, Philip II, had conquered had also been part of the Persian Empire

The Greeks never wanted to defeat the Persians,they rather responded in an attack by them and their ruler Xerxis.It started as a defensive war and escalated in taking the conflict deep into the Persian empire.
It depends on how the question is read. If the question is asking who was the man who created first empire through conquest, it would Sargon of Akkad, who created the Akkadian Empire - the world's first empire. If the question is asking who was the man who conquered the world's first empire (for some other empire), the question is unanswerable. The Akkadian Empire was never conquered. It fell apart for various reasons before any state existed that would be powerful enough to challenge it.
The Romans never conquered the British empire. The British empire began roughly 1,600 years after Rome fell. Rome annexed the province of Britannia into its empire in 43 AD.
Romans actually never conquered Egypt. I think you may be mistaken with the Greeks.Alexander the Great of Greek conquered Egypt and left his friend Ptomley as king.
Its track record speaks for its success. Until the time of the Romans, there had never been an empire its size. There had never been an empire that absorbed the cultures of those it conquered, there had never been an army as strong as Rome's and there had never been an empire that lasted as long as Rome's.
