Romans were the greatest in terms of power, longevity, and influence on the world even after their decline. Almost everything in the west can be traced back to them. I would put China next, though that depends upon whether you count different dynasties as different empires. If you don't, it too has longevity and was the most populous and powerful country on Earth for centuries. British is next, then Ottoman, Persian, Byzantine, Egyptian, Spanish, Mughal, Russian, French, etc.
