    None if this human rights garbage.

    Hell they got everyone speaking Spanish all over the Americas - that alone puts them in the top five.

    There's only about 1 billion speakers of French, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish and Romania in the word. Latin ain't dead. Help's @creepycoug 's team swarthy.

    Roman Empire

    The United States of Fucking America

    We conquered the earth and let the fucks think we were letting them self determine

    I thought about including Pax Americana. We are certainly a far more formidable military and economic power than some on this list.
    Except we've been that for 5 minutes relative to the length of tim some of these empires existed.

    I go w/ the Romans, but defer to you since you can walk all over most of us on the histories.

    My razones: best combination of Athens and Sparta, conquered an amazing geography relative to technology, and hung around for fucking ever while under constant threat.

    Athens gave us, and Rome, pretty much anything worthwhile in life, and Sparta taught us how to organize a military and be Tuff! Sparta contributed little else, so we thank them for special forces and shit, because you can't think about abstract maff, write poetry, and vote for shit while under siege.

    Rome combined that shit and ruled like a boss for a long fucking time.

    I ignored the Mongols because Patton.

    Roman Empire

    The Kahn's laugh at the backwards little Roman Kingdom.

    Except for their conquest of China which was a huge deal, most of their rapid conquest was open space. The lasting influence to Rome dwarfs that of the Mongols. We are living in a world that Rome started. China may be on the ascent and things could change, but for now they are the ones wearing western suits and not us? dressing like Mandarins.

    That's only because you live in the very West Western World that you think this. Did you know that the descendants of the Khan's still rule over kingdoms in the East to this very day? As in, unbroken rule since the original conquest. Direct descendants of Genghis.

    Mongol Empire at it's height, 100 million

    Roman Empire at it's height, 50 million

    Excepting China is like saying, the Roman Empire except for modern day Europe.

    They also conquered much of India, which Alexander couldn't do.

    Freak weather is all that stopped them from conquering Japan and most likely the rest of India.

    The only reason they didn't conquer Europe was because they considered it a backwater full of barbarians too far from home to bother with. Otherwise we might all be wearing Mongol pants.

    If only the Mayans, Incas and Aztecs had left some written record and architectural evidence to suggest they had some sophistication and know how to do and figure out something!

    But they didn't. So that all happened in Europa!

    I'm not discounting how impressive their achievements were but ultimately China went back to being ruled by Han people and not Mongols. And you don't have a billion peeps today speaking Mongolian, BUT you do have a billion speaking offshoots of Latin and another billion speaking Mandarin.

    I thought you were confusing Mongolia with Central and Sud American natives vis a vis Swaye's poast.

    The Mongolians were never the majority population except in Mongolia because they far out-conquered their own population and cultural limits. The peasants all spoke their native languages while the rulers spoke Mongolian. If anything, this would be points for the Mongols who punched way outside of their weightclass. Basically all of the ruling dynasties in the lands they conquered were descendants of the Khanate even long after their decline.

    Bruh, we gonna give points for the Romans adopting everything the Greeks originally accomplished?

    You think Kublai was living in some hut? He founded Beijing as the capital man.
