Out of the above choices, which empire would you most like to see return. My vote was a tough pick between the Soviet Union and the Iroquois Confederacy, but I eventually picked the Iroquois.

how many more versions of this sort o fthread will we have?

let's face it... while the original question is always a different one, the actual course of the thread stays the same

in 2 pages, Dalgetti and some yansk will argue about whether the Soviet Union was moral or not.

How on earth is this a troll thread? Simply because the Soviet Union is one of the possible choices? That's ridiculous.

Put an end to popups!

Perhaps mentioning the Mongol Empire is trolling too, after all, perhaps it will lead to our pro-mongol posters going off on a tirade on how their occupation of China was the moral thing to do.

I must say, leaving off the British Empire, arguably one of the greatest empires of all time, is quite some omission

Well I tried to leave off empires that still exist in one form or another, so that's why Britain and Spain and the such have been excluded.

I tried not to include empires that were fairly short-lived.
I did include the Holy Roman Empire for a bit of Germanic representation though.

Face the fact that the essense of the troll is that the empire's that were left out were left to make people argue "why has my country's empire been left out?"

The omission of the British empire is an obvious attempt to wind up the brits - And it'll probably work too

who would vote for the soviet Union? Come on. What good would that do? Now the Roman Empire, if they cam back that would be interesting... In WWIII their Legionaries would get their asses handed to them by modern warfare, but in WWIV, they would dominate the world!
