Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I'm a bit surprised as well, by a few doing well, and a few doing poorly that I would have thought would have been clear vote getters.  I won't say which....

Goes to show we have a wider range of interests than you would perhaps think.  

Is "The Empire Survives" a specific Empire?

Well Dave, much as with the BTS GB poll, there's not anything there that peeks my interest.  But considering the 'construction season' is about to start at the airport I work at, I'll abstain from the voting ---

My personal thought on this is that it shouldn't be, after all, there are so many to chose from!

Before Mr Zenrat picks me up on it thats 3 to 4 days not three quarters of a day  ;D ;D I have a reputation for being a bit like that so it must be the Crystal Palace/Croydon air ?  :rolleyes:

I have no idea where this completely unjustified reputation as a pedant comes from. :unsure:

My true preference is, actually, limited & goes so far as to only include those which ended in the 20th Century ... but I'm not calling the shots. ;D

Sorry.

What is the Star Wars empire called?  It just seems to be referred to as "The Empire"

I think i'd have to choose The Mongol Empire for the GB.

They must have been putting something in the water around those parts at some time. That's THREE of us on here who hail from that part of the world!  :o

As this was one of my submissions I'd better spell out what I had in mind. I was thinking of it covering any historical Empire you care to choose. We can discuss what constitutes an Empire if it gets enough votes.

I currently have a scenario where WWI is avoided and the old European Empires continue in particular the Austro-Hungarian. See here http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php/topic,38443.0.html

I spent a month in (South-) Croydon in 1967. Could I have been contaminated?   :o :rolleyes:

Without a doubt, that's why you're here of course.  ;)
