The Greek empire was before the Roman Empire.
The Greek eastern part of the Roman empire is known as the Byzantine, or Byzantine Empire.
The Byzantine Empire was the name given to the eastern half of the Roman Empire when it was split in two to make it more manageable. They didn't call it that - we do so now for convenience after it's capital Byzantium, which was renamed Constantinople after its emperor Constantine the Great.The eastern Empire was always Greek - it incorporated all the eastern Greek cities and territories in the east which Rome had incorporated within its empire in the 2nd and 1st Centuries BCE. So it's culture was always Greek, including language. Latin was spoken by Roman administrators, and it thought itself as Roman, but it was thoroughly Greek; even the Jewish upper classes spoke Greek, dressed in Greek style, had Greek theatre and had operations to reverse circumcision so they didn't look mutilated at the baths.When the western Roman Empire was taken over by the Germanic and other peoples, the Roman Empire was the Greek-cultured eastern part which survived for another thousand years until Turkish takeover.

The Greeks did not have an empire,
The Greek eastern part of the Roman empire is known as the Byzantine, or Byzantine Empire.
The prefix 'pre' means to come before. So in order to predate some thing it must come before the other. The early Egyptian empire (the old kingdom) dates to about 2700 BCE. The Roman empire was forged around 30 BCE. However, there was a Roman republic for sometime before that. Regardless, the Egyptian Empire came into existence long before the Roman.
There was no Greek empire to destroy. The Greek world comprised over 2,000 independent city-states. They were eventually absorbed into the Roman Empire.
