I don’t disagree, there isn’t a great way to quantify the data, I’m just making a discussion out of the main comment seemingly missing what an average is by talking about edge cases on the high end. Also their 3 examples, which I assume are the only 3 high end cases. Already have a massive discrepancy.

1000 and the next closest being ~600, it infers that long empires are few and far between.

    there's no average, that number was literally made up for some bs theory of empires.

    it isn't because it's an "average" it's literally made it, and it's impossible to get, as whatever definition of empire will miss so many "empires".

    it's multiple layers of bs.
