Answer:

Roman Empire.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Hellenistic Age refers to the period of time between 330 BC and 31 BC. It is considered the age during which Greek influence over the Mediterranean was at its peak. After Alexander the Great defeated the Persians on 330 BC, Hellenistic kingdoms were established along the eastern shores of the Mediterranean and North Africa. Greek culture and influence spread through this area for the next two centuries. However, the rise of the Roman Republic marked the slow decline of the Hellenistic empires. Romans legions conquered the Greek homeland in 146 BC, but other Hellenistic kingdoms carried on for several decades after that. However, the victory of Octavian over Mark Antony and Cleopatra's Ptolemaic Kingdom on 31 BC marked the end of the last of the Hellenistic Empires. Octavian became the first Roman Emperor, signalling the end of the Hellenistic Age as well.
