      Nah the three gunpowder empires are basically the same civilization, far too close to represent the diversity you would have seen from Rome to India before

      Just shows you how much geography has an impact on how empires grow and develop.

      Of the four great empires, the Han Dynasty had the strongest continuity, not only firmly establishing national identity but also being truly conquered only twice in the subsequent years.

      The Mongols spent a long time conquering the already weakened Song Dynasty.

      The Ming Dynasty perished in civil war, and after its fall, the fortunate Manchus, in alliance with a group of Chinese warlords, conquered an extremely chaotic China.

      But the significance of the Han Dynasty lies in its ability to instill a strong sense of unity among the people of that land.

      Both the founders of the Ming Dynasty and the Republic of China (ROC) used the pretext of expelling barbarians and restoring Han china rule to defeat the Mongols and Manchus, even carrying out ethnic cleansing against them, and thus reclaiming their own states.

      The ROC and PRC were essentially another form of Chinese dynasty, and the Mongols and Manchus were no longer able to escape Chinese rule.

      Crazy to think that 3/4 of the empires in the second image were all culturally Persianate with Turkic origins. t’s a very interesting time period

      But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?

      I love hearing about Roman or Han accounts mentioning one another’s empire. It would have been cool if there was more contact between the two.

      Interesting how the collapse of the Roman Empire in the first image led to a fragmentation and supposed dark age, but ultimately to competition and experimentation which led to those ‘fragmented’ states advancing far faster, such that the ‘empires’ in the second image were paper tigers when finally they met Rome’s descendants.

      Where did you get the emblem of India on first map? As an Indian, I haven’t seen it before, but its the most beautiful I have ever seen!
