where and when they were similar to thier roman dieties, they became one in the same, not all fit into the roman beleif system and vice-versa, roman culture had plenty of its own unoffical cults etc though

Romans had their own gods. They merely recognized similar attributes in the Greek gods and assumed they were the same beings. Some Greek gods had no Roman equivalent and vice-versa.

The Romans picked up gods from every group they assimilated.

Romans made dead rulers gods. That means not all were imported.
