Empires

War breaks out when nations try to form their own empires.

Even the mightiest of empires comes to an end.

All empires must fall.

The empires of the future are the empires of the mind.

The ancient Roman and Byzantine empires had well-developed associations known as demes.

The ancient Jews' hatred of idolatry did not endear them to the surrounding pagan empires.

Many cities were built at or near the mouths of the great rivers, these being the seats of trade and commerce, whence ships passed to and from all parts of the world. The land of Mu was the mother and the centre of the earth's civilization, learning, trade and commerce; all other countries of the world were her colonies or colonial empires.

Before modern day maps of the Middle East, before the Ottomans and the Romans, and before thousands of years of kings and caliphs, were the Assyrians—one of the world’s first modern empires.

The empires are at war in Ukraine.

Ukraine has become a battleground of empires.
