Why do people talk about the Roman Empire as if Great Britain didn’t

Make that look like a child’s play toy by comparison?


Don’t get me wrong, they are absolute ugly potatoes and the level of inbreeding and other extreme degeneracy is as bad as it gets where human behavior is concerned. The royal family is a very weird waste of a significant amount of money, and of course we can have opinions about their political realm.


But holy chit, these guys conquered the world like no one else could.

Don’t no one come up in here trying to take credit for chit you didn’t do, but as country, prioritizing their self interest, they are the Guinness book world record holder man.

America is centuries behind them with respect to this and anything America achieves can be seen as an achievement of the British Empire by proxy. The global political stage will not allow another country to gain that much power.
