Quote:Mongol empire was larger, as was and still is Russia, unless you include the wet stuff the Britainnia alledgedly ruled.
It wasn't larger, by land mass or by population.
Quote:One in four human beings on the planet heiled Caesar. The largest fraction ever to sing god save the queen (ha) was?
I would love to see you show me where you found the information that 1 in 4 people on the planet hieled ceaser. The british empire had a much higher population than the Roman empire. And had more land mass, regardless of this statistic which may be true but I find hard to believe.
Quote:The Egyptians invented sails, without which the British could row to India. The Egyptian invented the ox drawn plough, without which the british would scratch out a living with digging sticks, the Egyptians invented paper, parchement, and ink, without which Magna Carta would have been scratched into clay tablets.
Sails, ploughs, paper, vs jet engine, penicillin and the world wide web.
Quote:They were powerful enough to still be a leading civilization in the hotbed of world's civilizations 2000 years after they built pyramids. 500 years after Britain first acquired a navy, she is about to be disappear into oblivion.
You don't get points in civilization for being around a long time, you get points for the things I previously mentioned, countries taken over, wars won, technology, empire size and so on.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
