The Persian and Macedonian empires both reconquered what had been conquered by the Assyrian empire, and likely others before.

No, the Persian empire was much, much larger than the Assyrian empire.

The Macedonian empire was technically larger, including Persia, except it was never administrated as a whole and fell into pieces just a few years after coming into existence.
