The Roman Empire was established in 27 BC when Octavian, later known as Augustus, became the first Roman emperor. It reached its peak in terms of territorial expansion during the 2nd century AD but began to decline in the 3rd century. The Western Roman Empire officially fell in 476 AD, while the Eastern Roman Empire, or Byzantine Empire, continued until 1453.

Diocletian's reforms, implemented in the late 3rd century AD, aimed to stabilize and strengthen the Roman Empire amidst economic turmoil and political instability. Key reforms included the division of the empire into the Eastern and Western Roman Empires, the establishment of the tetrarchy to share power among four rulers, and the introduction of price controls to combat inflation. Diocletian also restructured the military and provincial administration to enhance efficiency and security. These reforms laid the groundwork for the later transformation of the Roman Empire.
Brought in in the early 3rd Century, it initially was a unifying force, but then the peoples began to pour in from Eurasia and it diluted the existing peoples in the Empire, who were progressively supplanted.
The Byzantine Roman Empire aka Eastern Roman Empire did become known but the Roman Empire did not seperate till much later because Julius Caesar came into power in the 6th century bc.The Eastern Roman Empire lasted till 1453 and the Western Roman Empire fell a century or two before that. When the Roman Empire seperated or divided was in the 3rd century ad 3 centuries after Jesus Christ died on the cross for us all.

There is no set date (at least I have never found one) for the fall of the Western Roman Empire. It just kind of disintegrated over such along period (3rd to the 5th century AD). The date for the Eastern Roman Empire on the other hand is 1453, when the Ottoman Turks captured Constantinople

The Roman empire emerged progressively, after having gained dominence of the Italian peninsula, it expanded into Sicily and Spain in the mid-3rd Century BCE and consolidated and expanded this over the following centuries, reaching its height in the 2nd Century CE. The Persian empire existed from 550 to 330 BCE. So the first is Persian Empire.

The Western Roman Empire was the western half of the Roman Empire, from its division by Diocletian in 285; the other half of the Roman Empire was the Eastern Roman Empire, today widely known as the Byzantine Empire.The Western Empire existed intermittently in several periods between the 3rd century and 5th century, after Diocletian's Tetrarchy and the reunifications associated with Constantine the Great and Julian the Apostate (324-363). Theodosius I (379-395) was the last Roman Emperor who ruled over a unified Roman empire. After his death in 395, the Roman Empire was permanently divided. The Western Roman Empire ended officially with the abdication of Romulus Augustus under pressure of Odoacer on 4 September 476, and unofficially with the death of Julius Nepos in 480.Despite a brief period of reconquest by its counterpart, the Eastern Roman Empire, the Western Roman Empire would not rise again. As the Western Roman Empire fell, a new era began in Western European history: the Middle Ages.
The 2nd century spanned the years AD 101 to AD 200. It was a period marked by significant developments in the Roman Empire, including territorial expansion and cultural achievements. This century followed the 1st century and preceded the 3rd century.
Rome can be said to have started being an empire when it expanded into Italy and turned the peoples of central and southern Italy into client states in the in the late 4th century and early 3rd century BC. The given date for the end of the western part of the Roman Empire is 476 AD, when the last emperor of the west was deposed. The eastern part of the Roman Empire continued to exist until 1453, when Constantinople was taken over by the Ottoman Turks.
The Roman Empire split into the Western Roman Empire and the Eastern Roman Empire primarily due to administrative and logistical challenges in governing its vast territories. By the late 3rd century AD, Emperor Diocletian enacted reforms that divided the empire into smaller, more manageable regions, a process further solidified by Constantine the Great, who established Constantinople as the capital of the Eastern Empire. This division allowed for more localized governance but ultimately led to divergent political, cultural, and economic developments, culminating in the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD while the Eastern Empire, or Byzantine Empire, continued for nearly another thousand years.
