    Dutch, German and Colonial Italian empires dont deserve be in the poll.
    In the other hand, Roman and Greek, and even Mongol and of course Albanian empires do should be.

    Unlike the rest of empires, Spanish empire discovered a new world, it was the closest thing to discover and colonize a new planet.

    None of the above.

    But my heart has a crush on thalassocracies. Specially for that one in which fish wouldn't dare swim the Med without red stripes on their backs.

    I'm not really a fan of empires, but of course given a choice - British Empire.

    Although I live within the former Portuguese Empire, the British Empire is closer to my heart.
