They failed . They never ruled all their constituent countries fully. This map is not correct.

USA has the largest colonial empire in history: It defacto controls the entire EU, North & South America, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, S. Korea, Taiwan, & Philippines. By "control" I mean has the ultimate say in monetary policy, national defense (including military bases and integration of armed forces), and form of government (that aligns with American lead supranational organizations like NATO). As far as non-colonial empires, Mongols were the biggest.

It's just on map in reality it's only few thousand km away from each other like australia is close to Canada it looks far on map

Umyyad are the biggest Islamic Empire. And the second empire after the British.

The funny thing is that they place the geographical extension of the Umayyad state only on the northern coastline of Africa, and this is not accurate at all.

@ash Ketchum pokémaster they were simply using their brain, something evolution gave us, I see nothing wrong with that.

"the empire on which the sun never sets" Copyright infringement - Phillip II

@ash Ketchum pokémaster The empire is forged in the crucible of war. Otherwise, it is almost impossible to unite such different peoples.

@ash Ketchum pokémaster The British became the reason for the rallying of the Indians. Which countries were divided by the British? The way of unification that you are talking about works only under certain conditions. And what do you mean by "unions". Are you talking about cooperation or unification into one country?

@ash Ketchum pokémaster it is easy to talk about peace-loving Mesopotamia, given that it had no neighbors with whom to fight

@ash Ketchum pokémaster lol I think you're just jealous bc your country hadn't a respectable large empire (which isn't something you should be ashamed of, anyways). It isn't anything personal, just doing what is better for your country and giving a better life to the persons that live in your nation. And yes, we should be impressed by how good these commanders were, I mean, they fought a lot of powerful nations and resisted. This is something very impressive

@ash Ketchum pokémaster I'm from Romania. And actually, there's no need of hating other countries like this for what they do; all this thing of suffering and tyrants isn't very credible. It is just dramatic. And tell me, where are you from?

@ash Ketchum pokémaster actually, this MAYBE (I repeat myself, MAYBE) happened 2000 years ago. Until 1937 or around it, there were rules in war. You're just dramatic with all this torture and conquered thing

@ash Ketchum pokémaster you're speaking about crazy persons and systems idiot, now the world is changing, but obviously you're kind of racist if you tell me that I couldn't understand just because I'm European, which means that your country has been colonized, too (probably). Where are you from? You just don't want to accept that some countries are great and some countries are useless for the world and not developed. In this case, we're speaking about isolated situations; the society was built to make the tsars tyrants, the Africans slaves and the khan was a crazy person, but you're just making it dramatic. "Oh, conquests lead to death and destruction", you're right, but you can't make me isolated examples of things happened in history just to tell me that we can't make an interesting list about largest empires in history. Oh, and, I don't speak any germanic language, so (in your opinion) I may know nothing about history, but you should give me some respect because I know English pretty well at 12 years. And no, you can't just tell me that I'm an ignorant only because I'm not very old; small doesn't mean stupid and big doesn't mean intelligent

@ash Ketchum pokémaster I alr know that Romania doesn't have an important role in the world rn, and the only thing I said is that a country would be useless, in the sense that a country like Lesotho (or, more generally, a poor one) isn't useful for the world just because its economy doesn't work and so it doesn't help others facing the real powers (like USA or China). This is a true thing. In the case that the country develops, it could become useful for the world for growing technology, exploration, discoveries, culture, military, economy and all the stuff like that. Call me racist if you want, I think I am not; I don't critic other persons just for the country they come from (like you did, for example, saying that I can't understand because I'm European). I just think about what the country's role is and understand how the world would have been if that country never existed. Oh, about Russia, I found an utility of Romania; facing up Russia. Romania actually defended the other eastern countries, giving support, helping Moldova to politically beat Russia (something that happened like a weak ago), and is one of the developed economies of Eastern Europe, with the highest economical growth in Europe and a decent cultural influence, counting traditions, legends, folklore, food (fantastic food), history and things like UNESCO sites in the territory, with pretty important exportations and some of the most useful discoveries of the story (example, the insuline), fight for diricts and other important things. So, yeah, I have my reasons to include a country in the "useless" list. You still don't answer my question... Where are you from?

You Britons are very colonial. I'm not saying in a bad way, is it a colonial empire or conquered places?

YEAH!!!

they did conquer all of Canada and Australia however the Mongols never conquered all of Siberia.

@user-ez7cj1ke6o the British did not conquered all of Canada and Australia. In fact, a big portion of the lands is not even inhabitsble. All the population there live in one small area. And the British conquered barren wasteland of Africa but still considered that as land that they conquered. The Mongols did conquered entire Siberia. Russia was a small empire where Ukraine is today and they were under the Mongol rule for 100 years. The people lived in Southern Siberia were Mongols themselves and khazastan and towards the east, you got korea, the Jin dynasty and the Manchu that were all taken by the Mongols.

@@James-sn5mg my reasoning for my statement is that the British have made ventures to these largely uninhabited places and actually claimed the land along with making railways and road etc. the same cannot be said for the Mongols who had little to no interest in the territories as there was little wealth, few people and the fact that it wasn't a threat to the mongols

@user-ez7cj1ke6o made railroads and their base when there was no one there is simple. Barren lands have no resistance so it's easy to take them while Mongols fought every resistance when they went to new land. Not only was the Mongol slightly bigger, they also did it stoneage weapons vs more advanced tech civilizations. The British got modern weapons thanks to china's gun and gun powder tech. Mongols fought the whole world.

@@James-sn5mg no the Mongols were not slightly bigger as stated before they never claimed or even wanted the territories of far northern Siberia. also why are you trying to argue who fought harder or how easy or hard it was to conquer the territories, we are talking about who is larger, these points have nothing to do with the topic of debate.

Exactly

Despite what you see, the Ottoman Empire was actually larger at it's height than Rome was at it's height. Most sources put the Ottoman Empire (1683) at 5.2 million square kilometers and the Roman Empire (117 a.d.) at 5 million square kilometers. It doesn't look that way on the map however but it is accurate. My guess is that the Ottoman Empire encompassed the Black Sea and so the area of the Black Sea is added to the total area of the empire. However in terms of land area, it is obvious that the Roman Empire was much larger.

If you pay attention, there are these errors in most places. you should examine the values below, not the map
