USA could be called an empire because it has overseas territories, however, it doesn't have an emperor and is a democracy, so, I have mixed feelings on that statement.
USA is an empire. Many actions the government takes is considered imperialistic. Looking back at history, you see manifest destiny of mainland USA, then you get alaska purchase, also a small colony in liberia for slaves to return to africa, then annexation of hawaii after overthrowing its monarchy, staging coups and military action in latin america, spanish american war resulted in puerto rico, virgin islands, puppet state of cuba, and phillippines as a colony, and more coups on countries and proxy wars.

The Brazilian Empire actually kept Uruguay as one of its "states" (quoted due to uncertainty), but when Brazil fought Argentina for it, Uruguay "accidentally" became independent
This is true, but when the Brazilian Empire had Uruguay, it was not the largest territorial extension. The largest was the one shown in the video, without Uruguay, but with territories conquered from Paraguay and Bolivia and some from Colombia and Venezuela that the Brazilian Empire bought
it goes much further back than that . Spain & Portugal fought over the area that eventually became Uruguay for over a century. you might of heard of "Colonia de Sacramento".? it's an historic Portuguese colonial town in Uruguay that changed hands between the Portuguese and Spanish many times over.

@German Tactics_DEU During the First World War, a revolution occurred in Russia and the soldiers simply went home from the front because a civil war began in Russia. Therefore, the German troops had great success at this time. And the new communist government signed a peace treaty with Germany, because Lenin was a traitor and a German spy, as they say. But if a revolution had not occurred in Russia, the First World War would have ended for Germany even worse and faster. The Allies won the war without Russia, and with Russia they would have won it even faster. Ps Russland + Deutschland = Freundschaft Keine WW1, WW2, ...WW3 WW4 Lieber "Nord Strim-2" )))

What is meant with an empire in this presentation was defined in the Info section as "any relatively large sovereign political entity whose components are not sovereign”. One can argue about the definition of terms, but that is how it was defined by the author. As a side note, and question, I am not qualified to have an opinion about whether all the entities in this presentation meets this requirement or not. Do they?

It is curious that the maximum extension of the Spanish Empire is not used, it was in 1803, when it included Spanish Lousiana of 2,275,940 km². In that year the territory was ceded to France. The Spanish Empire at the time of its maximum extension (1802) covered 17,265,636 km².
@@user-ls8or7ps3o Yes, the Spanish Empire claimed it, but it is difficult to propose it because no one knows about it, it lasted only a few years (1789-1795), its extension varies according to sources (3,300,000 km2 in some cases) and Great Britain immediately claimed it for itself, finally remaining as unallocated territory. Anyway, by extension, it would continue to be the 4th largest Empire in history, behind the Russian, Mongol and British.
Would like to see this list again but in chronological order. I think it would be interesting to see where empires were being made at different points in history.

It's Veni, vidi, vici; I came, I saw, I conquered, not I saw, I came, I conquered. But the Mongols didn't have a simplistic strategy like "conquer". They played a lot of mind games; cities who surrendered would be spared from slaughter; which is not unique for the Mongols; they managed to use this very succesfully.

Well, not the second one u mentioned but still. Napoleon's take onto the World is worthy of this list. Wanna say top 20 at least but well, idk. List is very flawed.
Size isn't the same thing as power, and while Napoleon's empire was arguably the strongest in the world (and the peak of France), in terms of size it was probably relatively little. In Europe, Napoleon especially used puppet states, technically not France though under his rule.
@@justin-gl5zz You're confusing colonial empire and empire, technically. The first french empire was Napoleon's empire, and the second empire Napoleon's III in the middle of the 19th century.

No distinction between 1st and 2nd French colonial empires? Too bad, cause the comparison is made between various Chinese and Persian states, and French possessions in north America were quite big, so I think it would have been worth it.
This is not okay, the Spanish empire with the union of Portugal and Spain in the 1580, Basically it occupied all South America and the Portuguese colonies of Africa... But ok all is fine 😂
Nop, because when France conquer Spain Napoleon put his brother in the power, Jose Bonaparte and napoleon don't control Spanish empire. But when Spain conquer Portugal, Felipe II has the power in Spain and in Portugal
That's no ok but in your logic, France conquer Spain for 5 years, Spain conquer Portugal for 60 years. And Felipe II was acept in Portugal like Felipe I of Portugal, napoleon and his family was not accepted in Spain, he conquer Spain by the force

The Brazilian Empire actually kept Uruguay as one of its "states" (quoted due to uncertainty), but when Brazil fought Argentina for it, Uruguay "accidentally" became independent
Accidentaly? no actually the United kingdom Argentina and Brasil agreed to make Uruguay an independent state to end the dispute
@@samuelmenendez731and it was a great move, Uruguai and Paraguai works as great buffer states between Brazil and Argentina
This is true, but when the Brazilian Empire had Uruguay, it was not the largest territorial extension.
The largest was the one shown in the video, without Uruguay, but with territories conquered from Paraguay and Bolivia and some from Colombia and Venezuela that the Brazilian Empire bought
it goes much further back than that . Spain & Portugal fought over the area that eventually became Uruguay for over a century. you might of heard of "Colonia de Sacramento".? it's an historic Portuguese colonial town in Uruguay that changed hands between the Portuguese and Spanish many times over.

@German Tactics_DEU
During the First World War, a revolution occurred in Russia and the soldiers simply went home from the front because a civil war began in Russia. Therefore, the German troops had great success at this time. And the new communist government signed a peace treaty with Germany, because Lenin was a traitor and a German spy, as they say. But if a revolution had not occurred in Russia, the First World War would have ended for Germany even worse and faster. The Allies won the war without Russia, and with Russia they would have won it even faster.

It is curious that the maximum extension of the Spanish Empire is not used, it was in 1803, when it included Spanish Lousiana of 2,275,940 km².
In that year the territory was ceded to France.
The Spanish Empire at the time of its maximum extension (1802) covered 17,265,636 km².
Was bigger in 1793, having that and the Nootka Territory
@@user-ls8or7ps3o
Yes, the Spanish Empire claimed it, but it is difficult to propose it because no one knows about it, it lasted only a few years (1789-1795), its extension varies according to sources (3,300,000 km2 in some cases) and Great Britain immediately claimed it for itself, finally remaining as unallocated territory.
Anyway, by extension, it would continue to be the 4th largest Empire in history, behind the Russian, Mongol and British.

@@kremlinbasement7768 Yes, the Achaemenid empire is the Persian empire. It's considered "the first Persian empire" as other empire followed with capitals based in Persia. It's called Achaemenid due to the dynasty that ruled the empire.
@@kremlinbasement7768 what do you mean ottoman conquered Rome? You mean the Empire not the city, right? I also thought they fought Byzantine Empire cause its basically their territory their placed on plus some dessert lands.

P C the traitors are the brexit people
The British themselves are at fault for their incompetence. They live too well to do anything. Laughable country by today's standards. Current British leadership reminds me of Napoleon III: both aspiring to be what their ancestors were, but does an awful job doing that. They're the joke of the world today. Over 3 years passed since the Brexit vote. Oh, the prestige, the queen is shaking on her throne. Poor lady.

@@AndrewVasirov fuck both of those, i have no clue where u are from but, I guarantee u in a war none of those things matter, if britain did go to war with you, watch, and you will see the strenght of this tiny nation, britain has nearly half of the worlds militaries on its side, even Australia, Canada, India, Hong Kong (which when given rifles to every one who can fight, would level the US) Britain is probably the most powerful nation on earth because of its history, in 2014 when Russia invaded Ukraine british Royal Marine Commandos were able to hold position while nearly 800 Russians assaulted their positions thinking they were Ukrainian this group of 60 men were able to fight off the entire intervention force which included 2 tanks that got disabled and 1 - 18 casualty rate against the Russians, the British Para was wounded but dragged behind cover
Afraid? Dude we're the first to break free. Of course the EU is making it as difficult as possible for us to do so but we kicked off the Romans yolk, as well as the Vikings & we'll kick off the yolk of this authoritarian regime too.

3:55 THE SPANISH EMPIRE

Territories in Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, in Europe, the Caroline Islands, the Mariana Islands, Guam, Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia in Oceania.
The northern portion of Taiwan in Asia.
Western Sahara, Morocco, Equatorial Guinea in Africa.
The Spanish Empire reached 20 million square kilometers at the end of the 18th century.

But the Mongols didn't have a simplistic strategy like "conquer". They played a lot of mind games; cities who surrendered would be spared from slaughter; which is not unique for the Mongols; they managed to use this very succesfully.

@@justin-gl5zz Exactly. And the video totally forgets them.
Well, not the second one u mentioned but still. Napoleon's take onto the World is worthy of this list. Wanna say top 20 at least but well, idk. List is very flawed.
Size isn't the same thing as power, and while Napoleon's empire was arguably the strongest in the world (and the peak of France), in terms of size it was probably relatively little. In Europe, Napoleon especially used puppet states, technically not France though under his rule.
@@justin-gl5zz You're confusing colonial empire and empire, technically.
The first french empire was Napoleon's empire, and the second empire Napoleon's III in the middle of the 19th century.
The first colonial empire though, was during the 17th/18th centuries, and the second colonial empire during the 19th century (including Napoleon's III era, when France itself was an empire, but also before and after that when France was a republic).

@رحيقم مختوم no logic.
@رحيقم مختوم All of those are caliphates, their rulers used the title of caliph. But I know that depending on which sect of Islam you are, you can be inclined into believing one is more believable than the other.

No distinction between 1st and 2nd French colonial empires? Too bad, cause the comparison is made between various Chinese and Persian states, and French possessions in north America were quite big, so I think it would have been worth it.
Right? Along the east coast and way up to canada.
Exactly, very disappointing
But in that time..they had no French West Africa ...so the africa territory were bigger
Not to mention the three Reichs: HRE, German Empire, and Nazis all considered separately.
What about Soviet Union vs Russian Empire?
This is not okay, the Spanish empire with the union of Portugal and Spain in the 1580, Basically it occupied all South America and the Portuguese colonies of Africa... But ok all is fine 😂
I'm from Brazil!
Spain is wonderful
Nop, because when France conquer Spain Napoleon put his brother in the power, Jose Bonaparte and napoleon don't control Spanish empire. But when Spain conquer Portugal, Felipe II has the power in Spain and in Portugal
That's no ok but in your logic, France conquer Spain for 5 years, Spain conquer Portugal for 60 years. And Felipe II was acept in Portugal like Felipe I of Portugal, napoleon and his family was not accepted in Spain, he conquer Spain by the force
@P4to D0l4n loved or no loved, Spanish monarchy owns the crown of Portugal
Me: *waiting for the British empire*
My brain: it is world big empire
Me: OH WAIT, IT IS #1 EMPIRE
List: Includes Holy Roman Empire.
Voltaire: Are you sure about that?
Voltaire got to see the last remnants of the HRE. Between the Ottonian Dynasty and the Protestant Reformation, the HRE was definitely an empire, most definitely holy but never was quite Roman (especially since creating the Papal States).
Lucario Boricua the HRE was barely ever an Empire. While it did have and Emperor and a Government, All the various Nobles acted with complete autonomy, warring with each other, taking other lands outside the Empire, ect. At best It was a loose confederation that payed lip service to the Emperor (mostly a Hasburg) and did their own thing.
Bangbabangbabangbang I don’t wanna argue with someone over some stupid joke, and no, I don’t think either he, or I, can claim to know more on the subject.
The HRE is neither holy nor Roman nor an empire 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@szeplakibalazs9143 No, you are talking about the union of Krewo when Poland accept as king Wladislav Jagiello, lithuanian prince, who also became the ruller of Lithuania. Since 1385 Poland and Lithuania had same ruller, but they were still separate countries. Commonwealth has been formed in Lublin in 1569.
Krótko i ciekawie o państwach świata There isn't much of a point to make the distinction though.
@@szeplakibalazs9143 Between 1386 and 1569 Poland and Lithuania sometimes (not always) shared monarch but were two different countries. If for you having the same monarch is enough to be one country than it was the biggest in 1440 after union with Hungary or between 1592 and 1599 when PLC and Sweden had the same monarch.
There was a union between the 2 nations. It was the Polish-Lithuanian Union. The 2 nations formally merged in 1569.
