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: That seems like it's got to be a ridiculous overgeneralization of some kind. I'll check.
gollark: What *is* that based on?
gollark: I don't think that's how this sort of thing generally works. Generally things have multiple (possible) causes.
gollark: It's an infohazard, not a cognitohazard.
