[@WilsonTurner] ah, well what I meant was how it was made. A superpower born in modern times out of revolution isn't unheard of, that's why I brought up the Unification of Germany. Stylistically, it's more like the Roman Empire :D

Also, ignore the size and vastness of the empire - it's mostly an above average in size kingdom. The name Empire is due to the conquest of different ethnic cultures, which was a result of extending their territory :)
