What benefit could Persians have derived form conquering Greece in the Persian War?
They used superior naval tactics and destroyed the Persian navy, which threatened the Greek cities and also protected their supply line.

Their infantry had armour, which gave them the edge over the unarmoured Persian infantry.
The Middle East is part of the continent of Asia, so - technically speaking - yes. Persians are very proud of their long and heroic past and of a highly developed culture that goes back to the times of Babylon and the ancient Greeks.

What would've happened if the Persians had won the Persian wars?
If you mean they had defeated the independent Greek city-states in 480 BCE, they would have installed a puppet government in each of the city states, and a Satrap (governor) for a new province of Greece. The city populations would have been restive, and there would have been frequent coups to get rid of the puppets, just as had happened throughout the previous three hundred years, and had happened in the Greek cities of Asia Minor. These coups would have been put down with increasing ferocity, so Greece would have been in turmoil. How long it would have taken to gain back their independence is anybody's guess.
