There was an Arab Empire, and it was unified under a single government from 632 to 750, when it was first ruled by the Rashidun Caliphate, followed by the Umayyad Caliphate. It was only from 750 that
the Arab Empire split between the Umayyad and Abbasid dynasties, both of which lasted for several centuries more.
The Arab Empire should be included on the list for two main reasons:
1. It was the largest empire the world had yet seen (13.2 million square km at its peak), and its size was not surpassed until the Mongol Empire centuries later.
2. It had numerous achievements in the arts, sciences literature, philosophy, engineering, technology, etc. that could quite easily rival the achievements of the other empires on the list.
The United States Empire is the "greatest" to date but will probably be the shortest lived.

Please do cite your sources. Saying something without references doe not make it so!

Asking for references or sources is not going after someone.
If one re-reads LeBrok' s last post relating to me specifically, he said some very insulting things aimed at me. I've never used that kind of disrespectful vocabulary against anyone on this forum.
BTW LEBROK: You really did make a "Freudian slip: when you wrote JOCK instead of JOKE.

It's obvious that this forum is dominated by MEN, and when a female (like myself) has something to say that makes sense, some MEN can't handle it and try to "diminish " that female by their words as LeBrok has done toward me.

OK Antigone,
IT WAS A JOKE. I get it!!!
Sore head on my part, however that does not excuse Le Broks later reply insulting me. What say you Antigone? Or what he had to say doe not count?
