Poll: Your Favourite Empire

[Jadak]

Spoiler: Hands down.

That's what I came into this thread intending to vote for, was quite disappointed when I saw what it really was. Oh well...

 

[Pirakahunter788]

Spoiler: Hands down.

Palpatine would be proud.

 

[Atticus89]

Holy Roman; they had the coolest flag!

Spoiler: flag

I think my World Civilization professor said it best: "The Holy Roman Empire wasn't very Holy, wasn't very Roman, and certainly wasn't much of an Empire."

However, I will concede that the flag looks awesome.

 

[Psycho Cat Industries]

I demand Assyrians!

 

[Zaverexus]

dude, the Mongols were just kool.

 

[LackingSanity]

I think Mongol is a pretty cool guy. eh rides horsis and doesnt afraid of anything.

 

[Undead Dragon King]

I chose the Spanish. Mainly because those conquistadores had the most cahones out of any adventurers ever. Sailing across the world in ships barely able to make the trip and conquering the Aztec and Incan Empires, with populations in the millions, with the help of guns, germs and steel is pretty badass.

Plus, their helmets were the best that humanity has ever devised:

Spoiler: Morions: hell yes!

What of the Incas? They were one of the greatest civilizations ever to live on the earth.

Chichen Itza was Mayan. This is what you were looking for:

Is the Soviet Empire(I know Ronald Reagan was the only one to ever call them that) too insignificant to put on there? Well i guess I gotta go with the next best empire.

Рoссия!Рoссия!Рoссия!

Poor call. Your World civ prof should have attributed that quote to Voltaire.

Ce corps qui s'appelait et qui s'appelle encore le saint empire romain n'était en aucune manière ni saint, ni romain, ni empire.

* This agglomeration which was called and which still calls itself the Holy Roman Empire was neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire.

 

[The Scythian]

Does the Septim Empire count?

 

[Laser Priest]

Mine. I secretly control the entire world and most of Jupiter.

Second place: The Galactic Empire.

In her defense, most people will say quotes that have been said many times but don't know who to attribute them to and she never attributed it to herself as something she came up with. But now I know who did, so thank you!

 

[Lazy Kitty]

The Roman Empire.

 

[SilentCom]

I would have voted for the Roman empire. The Romans and Greek formed the basis for Western civilization. I ended up voting for the British empire because their colonization is what allowed for the formation of my country (USA!).

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

The Galactic Empire.

 

[Tanis]

Other:
The Humankind Empire of Abh

 

[MintyNinja]

As a Canadian, I must vote for the Queen!

 

[FllippinIDIOT]

AVE CAESAR

 

[BlumiereBleck]

Where's the roman?

My thoughts exactly......
THE ROMAN EMPIRE KICKS ALL THESE OTHER EMPIRES' POSTERIORS!
