Subject: As a species, could humanity form an empire?

Could humanity, in the distant future, come together as one and form an empire? spreading across the stars? or does such an idea only exist in fiction?

Yes but rebel factions will arise and fight the empire like it always does

I am alpha, i am omega.

I am the last of the primes.

That's not an empire. Think the galactic empire.

Now let's get down to business, I don't got no time to play around, what is this?

I was thinking the same earlier. I think if it happens, it won't be all of humanity cooperating, it'll be the USA, the EU and their allies, or all the Commies.

No because of the unequal divide between the rich and the poor. The only way to combat that is via communism, and -blam!- communism.

There hasn't been a 200 year period without war in hundreds of years. At the minute America is constantly at war with Asian and African countries.

We can never be harmonious because we fight too many wars.

Therefore there can never be a super empire.

China is the biggest empire.

That's not an Empire. Think the Imperium of Man.

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

It'd just be civil war after civil war.

Yes, but we'd also have the Rebel alliance..

  • 11.28.2012 11:53 AM PDT

It'd be pretty much impossible to try to unite everyone as one.

  • 11.28.2012 11:54 AM PDT

Break down, every single one of you.

Could we? Yes.

Will we, as an entire species? No. Why? Because we like to argue with each other. There may be an expansive human empire, but there will always be those who want to start their own government.

Well if our ancestors a long time ago managed to create a massive empire in a galaxy far far away, I think we can do it in the future.

Faith in the Emperor is its own reward.

Yes we can. It might cause a war in which some nations are lost, but it's definitely possible.
