Greece was never an empire.
Greece consisted of little city-states united by a common language and traditions, but they were never united under one ruler. Each city-state had it's own king or queen.
You are probably referring to Alexander the great's empire? Alexander was Macedonian, not Greek, so his was the Macedonian Empire, not the Greek Empire. The Macedonian Empire (which included some Greek city-states) ended when Alexander died in in 323BC - with no heir, the generals fought amongst themselves and ended up dividing his hard-earned empire into tiny chunks.
Alexander's Macedonian Empire spanned across Macedonia, Greece, Egypt and Persia. With Alexander being vain, he named cities after himself (Alexandria, etc) so people would remember him.
The Greek empire was never destroyed because the Greeks never had an empire to begin with. Ancient Greece was a collection of independent city-states which would only unite in times of extreme crisis. When the trouble was over, each city-state would return to its own territory and its own form of government. The closest thing to an "empire" that the Greeks could lay claim to was the exploits of Alexander the Great. However this was a one shot occurrence as the "empire" that Alexander was trying to establish fell apart after his death.
