In terms of area and population, the Roman Empire at its height was much larger, but it must be remembered that it took the Romans many generations to build their empire, while Alexander built his in only a few years. Macedonia later became a Roman privince, but several Eastern provinces of the former Macedonian Empire were never added to the Roman Empire.
Alexander the great conquered the Achaemenid Empire (the second of the four pre-Islamic empires) which was the largest empire antiquity saw. However, this lasted only for eight years because he died. After his dearth his generals fought wars over the partition of the territories. Three Greek-ruled states emerged for this: the kingdom of Pergamon (in western Turkey) the Seleucid Empire (from central Turkey to Pakistan and Central Asia, and Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and part of Israel) and the Ptolemaic kingdom (Egypt, Cyprus, art of Israel and some territories in Turkey).
