| Some constructive criticism. 1. You need a source or sources; 2. Please provide some guidance on what you call the modern era and indeed what constitutes an empire. 3. You need to be consistent in the form of the answers. I would suggest accept the principal country name (e.g. UK/Turkey etc) and the name the empire is best known as (e.g. British/Ottoman etc). 4. Reconsider some of the answers. Where are: Mongol, Moghul, Holy Roman, Austria-Hungary, Sweden, Third Reich, Netherlands: all of which were probably larger than some of those mentioned. 5. Finally, exclude Brazil which was not really an empire, just a country that called itself an empire (apart from when it briefly occuoied Uruguay). |
