The point is Rome did not last 1,480+ years as you and the other poster claimed, not even close. Odoacer conquered Rome and became the first barbarian king of Italy in 476 AD.

The Roman Empire began in 27 BC with Augustus, the first emperor of Rome. It eventually split in half in 395 AD. The Western Roman Empire, including the city of Rome itself, fell in 476 AD. The Eastern Roman Empire, or the Byzantine Empire was centered on Constantinople, not Rome.
Forget about averages, his post isn’t even factually correct. Rome did not last 1,480 years.
The Roman Empire split in 395 AD. The Western Roman Empire, including the city of Rome itself, fell in 476 AD.
Yes. The average life expectancy of a human for instance is a useful statistic in healthcare, social services, financial and retirement planning, etc.
You’re all worried about statistics and the poor guy can’t even read.
Cliodynamics and Structural-Demographic Theory suggests cycles of 200-300 years as well.
I wish liberals could actually read.
It’s not just Glubb. The Changing World Order by Ray Dalio also arrives at the 250 year number.
Regardless, that is the number we are interested in.
We’re talking about the average life expectancy of an empire. It’s a fairly straightforward calculation if one has all the data ready.
250 years is just a rough estimate. As an expert, what’s the number you’ve arrived at?

There are 2 rightwing parties in the US. If you are a leftwing voter and live in the empire or any of its vassal states, you’re wasting your time.

What are you going to use if you are driving somewhere new and don’t know where you are going though? I used AA for the maps and directions only and I miss it alot.
Well you won’t be able to use it at all even if you need it, but if that works for you, go nuts.
No, not even close. The Egyptian Empire lasted from 1570 to 1069 BC.
No, there are others as I’ve already mentioned. The Changing World Order by Ray Dalio also arrives at the 250 year number. Cliodynamics and Structural-Demographic Theory suggests cycles of 200-300 years as well.
