Well if you guys wanted to make the map even bigger!! You could include the Alexander remnants.
1. The Selucid Empire. Stretches from Iran to India, pushing up a little into Russia. Capitol city of Babylon. They're the greek ran Persian empire, or rather, what's left of it.
2. Egypt. Also ran by the greeks, it solely spans Egyptian territory, streching from Cyrene to the Sinai. Capitol (at this time) of Alexandria ran by Ptolemy. Egyptian culture under Ptolemy flurished. The Greeks actually became more egyptian and less greek. The army would consist of traditional Egyptian tower sheildsman with kopesh and spears as well as egyptian bowmen
.
3. Attalid Dynasty (Kingdom of Pergamon) Ruled out of the capitol city of Pergamon, They consist of a mixture of Turks, Persians, and Greeks. The Territory of the Attalids consists of all of Asia minor (Turkey ) and lower Greece.
4. Thrace (Not sure of the actual name of this place), Ruled by Lysander and capitoled at Byzantion. Consists of proto-greeks and thracians!. Territory consists of the land that makes up Thracia and the land around Byzantion.

5. Carthage! The Carthaginians were around for a very long time before Rome even existed. They fight with african troops and Iberian influenced "carthaginian" professional soldiers. At the height of the empire they bordered Egypt and stretched all the way to northern spain.

Good illustration of a typical Carthaginian swordsman with a falcata sword
