Yes. Ancient Greece preceded ancient Rome by about 500 - 1,000 years and then Rome paralled Greece, and then Rome conquered and occupied Greece.
The Romans defeated the Spartans in 195 B.C. in the 'Laconian War'.

The Ancient Greeks did come before the Romans. However, the Romans got a lot of their ideas from Ancient Greece. Why, then, were the Romans more successful in culminating an empire? Well, that's because the Greeks were too busy fighting amongst each other. E.G. Athens and Spartans.

The Aeneid tells the story of how Aeneas escapes Troy and crosses to Italy, Romans preferred to be associated with the fortitude and suffering of the Trojan survivors than be connected to the effete (in Rome's eyes) Greeks.
