    No mention of Mughal empire or Russian Empire? Both were very powerful at their height. Why isn't the British empire shown at it's territorial height? You seemed to have skipped it's territories in Africa, some of Asian territories, and the middle east. Britain ruled a third of Africa's population as well as it's most geo strategically important territories and had a dominant role in the Middle East. Also, the most powerful state in history, the USA after WW2 is somehow not mentioned lol.

    The title of this offering is “The Biggest Empires” but only the Persian and Macedonian Empires are actually shown at their most expansive territorial extent which is what the title claimed this would be about. You show the expansion of the British Empire and talk about it being the biggest ever but cut off that expansion before it extends into Africa where it eventually colonizes 40% of that continent along with multiple areas is Southeast Asia that got left out. According to this video Napoleon only managed to conquer Luxembourg, Netherlands, Belgium and a little bit of Italy. What about Spain? All of its South American colonies broke away during the Napoleonic Wars because Spain was too busy being occupied by French troops. He made his brother the King of Italy, renamed Switzerland, disbanded the Holy Roman Empire and reorganized its territories into far fewer states/principalities etc which they kept after his defeat and even carved the Duchy of Warsaw off of the far end of Prussia. But according to your map he only managed to occupy the smallest neighbors along France’s eastern border.

    PERSIAN EMPIRE (480 B.C) -- 44%
    Qing dynasty (1800) - 37%
    Northern Song Dynasty (1100) - 33%
    Western Han Dynasty (1) - 32%

    Gupta Empire (450) - 13%
    Northenr Wei (500) - 13%
    The biggest empire in the world is not even on atlas because persians never change the name of the city the conquered they let you have your freedom and religious practices. So the truth is persian empire at its biggest was 96% but that is ok you guys are staring to see the truth.
