Category talk:Empires

Are these more organisations, or would this be more of a government/political thing that would deem a new category? Madelyne 12:11, 26 April 2007 (GMT)

I thought about that and decided that if I was going to do it, I'd do it later (unless someone wants to do it now). There's so much that could potentially go into politics, IMHO. -- Delphinus @ 15:17, 26 April 2007 (GMT)

Shallam Empire? Asara 14:57, 26 April 2007 (GMT)

Throughout the entire pre-Seleucarian history of Shallam, the leader's title was that of Emperor. (The traditional title of "Sultan" still existed, though, as evidenced by Caro-Kann.) I imagine that'd stem from the control that Shallam exercised over a good portion of the continent for nearly a thousand years - the same dominion which allowed it to quite literally pave itself in gold. The emperor article mentions it to some extent, if I recall. -- Delphinus @ 15:17, 26 April 2007 (GMT)

Perfect. Should we direct the link to a separate "Shallamese Empire" then, as "Empire" is indicative of a time pre-Seleucar and today's Shallam is not usually referenced as an Empire but as a city-state who no longer holds that extent of territory? Asara 18:08, 26 April 2007 (GMT)
