gollark: You should have tried not going there, retroactively.

gollark: The only source I can find is here (https://alfin2100.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-life-span-of-empires-250-years.html) and this has a dead link to an essay of some kind, and is apparently only aware of about 10 empires.

gollark: What *is* that based on?
