Neither of those count as empires. Not even close
>>4840037Even though OP is a huge fail, I felt a couple proper empires should be posted. At least the thread isn't another celeb thot simp thread.
>>4841260Hyvä, kundi!

>>4841255These are tricky because I don't have my files saved this way.
>>4845391The US really should have taken over all of Canada.
>>4847029There were serious talks to annex it but the slavery debate killed them. Same reason the proposal to buy Cuba from Spain fell through and part of the reason the US-Mexican war ended early.
>>4847108The Americans fought a whole war to try to spread their revolution North. They failed miserably, and the Brits burned Washington DC in retribution for their sacking of York (Toronto) and Kingston. The one board with worse historical literacy than /his/

I wonder what would be the left of Russia in 200 years? Burned out radioactive Wasteland interspersed with red forests, cars sludge ponds and Toothless villagers without any electricity whatsoever

>>4855262They fit the description, anyhow
>>4840037I am never sure what qualifies for a title so specific so here's a cool map that I guess fits.
>>4856685The Rule of Cool means it can stay.
>>4853031This image has always bugged me because Scott's plan only went to the Mississippi River. The snake is stupidly exaggerated. Control of the states west of the Mississippi wouldn't matter because they couldn't get goods or supplies to the main Confederate effort.>also not an empire.
>>4858606Depends on how you define empire. There were elements of international domination.

>>4840037this map is inaccurate. Tigranocerta was not built until 71 BC, while this map is set at 281 BC
>>4862104That's just what they want you to believe.
>>4866299Not so impressive away from the coast.
>>4869693Excellent. Thanks for sharing it.

>>4856685Which city is this?nec spe nec metu means neither hope nor fear
>>4867585Impress us then. Conquered a lot of countries have ya? No? Yeah, that's what I thought.
>>4871282You don't have a Google link next to the image to click?
>>4874624Why 1259?
>>4875777Why not?
>>4876429So no real significance to that year?
>>4877850No idea at all. I didn't post it. I was just being a smart ass. This board has gotten boring. Well, unless you're a simp for celeb thots anyway.
>>4848775>>4850171It's a map of the Valley of Mexico during the Cortes expedition/the Siege of Tenochtitlan showing their path and the locations of major battles. Worth noting the Valley had many more population centers then what's shown there, that only shows major cities for the most part. Compare to the more zoomed in maps of pic related, which still even then excludes some
>>4878452since the thread is about to 404 anyways I'll dump some more Mesoamerica mapsI'll post info about them when I'\m done posting them

I'm surprised nobody has posted just plain Russia. It has colonised dozens of nations.
