I think it was either the Islamic Empire under The Umayde Caliphate.
Or the Roman Empire under Empire Augustus.

The British.

Of all people I thought you would know this. :roll:

After the British, its the Romans, and after the Romans its the Ummayads, then Mongols & Alexander, and the rest.

But those are all Western/middle eastern empires.

Reality speaking, the various Chinese dynasties far outshine those Western empires when it comes to greatness and discovery, but they only influenced east Asia.

the current jewish american empire :down:

but in terms of pure worldly achievement and greatness and legacy - then its the various deutsche reichs combined. warfare, science, culture, innovation, development and progress - unequaled.

Its not just about size. There were a lot of empires bigger than Rome but Rome had a lot of influence. The British had size and influence, that's what puts them way ahead of the others.
