The 100 Largest Empires in History with Flags

- This video shows history's 100 largest empires.
Note:
Some empires may look larger or smaller than others even if an empire is said to be bigger in the video. This is because of the map projection, which can distort size. This is also because this list is subjective to interpretation and there is no definitive list of the 100 largest empires. My list is mainly based off of the list on wikipedia, but with a few tweaks here and there. Some flags on the list aren't always national flags, some symbolize the state, the ruling dynasty, or are military flags. My list is not perfect.

Fun fact; the ruler of the largest empire in all of history was not named Emperor or King, but Prime Minister
Queen Victoria

Hi from russia
The British Empire was the largest empire the world has ever seen. The British Empire covered 13.01 million square miles of land - more than 22% of the earth’s landmass. The empire had 458 million people in 1938 - more than 20% of the world’s population.
But at the end the empire vanished
Та британцы 1858 они больше и больше
@Doctah History better than the “country” down south eating snails and USA deep frying everything
If brittish comeback rn population will be crazy 2billion 20% like you said

This video is definitely epic. It reminds us of some moments in history where colonialism took control in several centuries and that many countries also dared to conquer being enormous.
It's a epic lie
Yeah, it is like you see Turkey much smaller than maybe a few hundred years ago, where it show quarter of the world taken by Turkey.

Это я ну я понимаю что это будет 100 больших империй
The Tang and Ottoman empires with their respective vassals were much bigger. The 7th century Tang Dynasty had a size of 14M km² whereas the 1577 Ottoman Empire stretched over an area of 9M km²

Geography and space is the best mapping youtuber I love it
Thanks for displaying the Tang Dynasty's proper flag 😉
However, the size of the Tang and Ming are bigger than shown in the video. For instance, the Ming controlled the port of Palembang (and thus was the only Chinese empire to have a directly-controlled overseas colony), but that isn't shown in the video.
lessss go my country's empire is 23!! id say most of these empire r just a little bit bigger than they r shown but im not sure
anyway, nice vid!

Nice
esos paises tenian mucha extensidad con el pasar de los años y tambien el tiempo. mongolia es el sucesor del imperio mongol, turquia del imperipo ottomano, italia del imperio romano donde ahi en ese imperio nacio el idioma latin, y muchisimos mas.
YESS. This took a while for sure
Wow i like this video
POV: You waiting for your Empire
I agree
I agree (i had to wait till 3:26)
I had to wait until the end
i had to wait until #1
I like ur video and its style, but has some historical mistakes especially in iran region like sassanid empire was in their great extent around 620 much bigger than what u showed in 490 and also if u gonna show occupied and contested area as state domain do it for all states not some of them btw cool video.
あなたの動画は非常に繊細で分かりやすく、言語が解らずとも理解することができます
I agree
本当のモンゴル帝国 💀
Good
where do you find the kushan empire flag
This is a good video although I do find it weird how Iberian union is shown to be smaller than Portugal or Spanish empire
That’s because after the split apart Spain ended up conquering even more land- in the days of the Iberian Union their colonial extends hadn’t even been close to their peaks yet
Please make the video about the history of Asia with flags 1000 b.C - 2022 every year
Хорошо я буду это делать 1000 г. До н. э. - 2020
Is good that him make this video now

Do largest intergovernmental organisations in the world, based on the land area of the countries.
The Spanish Empire was technically significantly bigger depending on how you look at it. It had occupied the Nootka Territory in NW America (even if it didn’t enforce it), Spanish Sahara and northern Morocco, Equitorial Guinea, Spanish Netherlands, and parts of what is now Italy and France.
The video is done based on their peak sizes, not every territory they ever owned. Hence why the British one doesn’t include the US.
Spain didn’t own all of those lands you said at the same time and ultimately the Spain shown in the video was Spain at its peak territorial height
@@samwell2004 under that logic the british empire is not bigger than the mongol
@@ArcueidBrunestudRealwhat? Nope the British controlled all of that at one time
Do you know what a peak is?
@@ArcueidBrunestudRealno way you are this ignorant all of this countries were under the rule of britain during the reign of king george the 5. Or otherwise britain will have malaysia, usa, and french colonies like syria and african countries because they conquered those colonies when france fell to germany. Maybe you actually don't want to accept the british empire was largest in history.
@@ArcueidBrunestudReali was right you are in denial that the british empire is the largest in history. This ego is just hillarious for me.
Reminds me of Cottereau video
What took you so long for this
Comment fait-on un tel montage ?

The Second French Colonial Empire reached it's greatest territorial extent under the Provisional Government of the French Republic in 1945, before Guangzhouwang was handed back to China.
Every history channels forgot to add Kyrgyz Khaganate.
Try NRG,Japan,Turkey,Italy,Russia,China and UK!
The British: I'm still bigger

Not persia, iran
@@Solevoiii Iran is not the same as Persia, at the time of that empire it was Persia, not Iran
@@RasmusGuineaPig They never called themselves Persia, Persia is the Greek pronunciation of the Fars region, in the southern part of Iran, but the inhabitants always called themselves Iranians or the "country of the Aryans" - Iran, this is ours.
@@Solevoiii true, but that empire is still referred to as a Persian empire
@@RasmusGuineaPig The fact that it is called that does not mean that it is correct and correct to call it that, ordinary ignorance
