if u miss an empire: great.. how intent! first off, read the description before making any comment, second it would be impossible to list all empires in this kind of movie because several empires existed at the same time in diffrent continents. so stop these low-iq-postings asking for missing empires. it sets the focus on the middle east, enhance ur knowledge but dont annoy me with ur smattering. thank u

This video depicts that the British Empire never existed. An Empire that the Sun never set on, an empire that created government, common law, modern technology and the modern superpowers. I'm disgusted!!!

[BabylonRevival]

and still the brits are crying because of their crumbled empire. the british empire is nothing more than a shrinked commonwealth, a voluntary association with no significance like the british empire was itself. all they created were bad food and sports like rugby and cricket. uk is the same puppet of the yanks like they are from AIPAC and israel. go make some pro british empire vids to manage ur inferiority complex

[yyasaman]

why would you call Achaemenids empire persian empire? i mean Sasanids and Seljuks were both persian too! so unaccurate

[BabylonRevival]

why not? the achaemenids empire was the first (and biggest) persian empire and therefor deserving the title persian empire. that the other 2 persian empires are not called #2 and #3 is clear. the description is accurate

[TankerUSA]

Forgot the first, second and third German empires.

@finsfan90 Napoleon wasnt an emperor he just claimed he is. Hitler wasnt an emperor too very few TRUE empires existed trough history.An example for that is the First and Second Bulgarian Empire you may have not heard of it but in 927 The Roman ( Byzantine ) Empire recognized it and at the time the Byzantine and the Bulgarian Empires were the only TRUE empires rest of Europe was full of bloodthirsty barbarians if you dont believe me type : Empire wiki , or type First Bulgarian Empire wiki

@bob4o99

Who recognized Napoleon? Or Hitler for that matter? Did the pope bless him? Doubt it. They were "emperors" who had an "empire", Another example, The Roman Empire had a Republic infrastructure similar to the U.S. If they can be an empire why cant America? America is wealthy, owns many territories, and has troops and armed forces of some nature, whether it be air craft carriers or jets, on call stationed around the world. America is a peaceful empire.

@TankerUSA

False, First German Empire was called the "Holy Roman Empire of the German People"

Second Empire was called German Empire "Das Deutsche Reich", ruled by the Kaiser, German word for Emperor and was recognized as such by all nations.

Third Empire was called "Das Dritte Reich", aka Third Reich, it was a Geopolitical Empire, ruled by a dictator.

Difference between a dictator and a Kaiser or Emperor is, one of them goes through a coronation process.

British Empire was ruled by a King.

@finsfan90 lol since when was America an empire . 1st the rulers were PRESIDENTS so it wasnt even a monarchy . 2nd To be an Empire it has to be recognized by a higher power like the pope or another emperor well guess what i wasnt

[bob4o99]

@TankerUSA hmm if i remember correctly An empire isnt an empire if the rulers were called kings the Holy Roman Empire was an empire but the others werent they werent recognized as such by higher powers

[bob4o99]

@HoBaDoN the British empire was never a true "empire" it was a kingdom with colonies KING is a title that monarchs in KINGDOMS use . To be an Empire it has to be recognized by a higher power like the pope ( but oops stupid Henry left the Roman Church ) .In European history there were very few TRUE empires like the Byzantine , The Bulgarian Empire ( recognized as an empire by the byzantine emperor himself ) , Empire of Charlemagne a little bit strange is it ?
