DBWI AHC successor state of Alexander only in Asia

The title is clunky, but is there any way you could get one of the successor states emerging after the death of Alexander the Great to be based in Asia and only have territories in Asia?

I mean something that has a substantial block of territories and several generations of kings, not something ephemeral. Is there a way to get this kingdom to contain or at least contest both Asia Minor and Bactria at the same time?

The Seleucid Empire.
OOC: It's a DBWI, so we're pretending to be from an alternate timeline.

IC: You could have Alexander go even further east; I'm pretty sure he wanted to have a world empire, but he settled for controlling most of Mesopotamia, the Levant, and Egypt. So have him conquer the rest of Persia (if it's even possible, which it probably isn't) and get one of the Diadochi to found a successor kingdom in eastern Persia (probably around Baluchistan/Afghanistan).
 
"The Seleucid Empire."

What on Earth is that?
This is probably a reference to Seleucus, who was appointed governor of Armenia but stupidly got himself captured by Ptolemy before he could assume the position. Armenia would be a pretty good base for such an empire; given the state of the surrounding territory in subsequent years, a competent, expansionist leader could make a huge difference.
