The Mongols.

I guess with them its the 'what if' factor... They whooped, destroyed everything that came in their path and simply put vanished changing the future. Definitely the most feared I would say.

The roman and mongul empire are jokes. They lasted how long like a couple centuries? They are completely non-existant now.

There are some empires that have lasted millenniums and are still going to this day.

The Persian Empire is the pick from Mid East, and I included its vast entirety of reigns from Assyrians to Babylonians. The Holy Roman Empire however ruled Europe for several hundred years, well Western Europe.

The British Empire, because they were the only Empire to speak English. Which is the natural language for human beings.

What would you qualify as a great Empire than the Roman Empire?

i cant include the Aztec empire because the americas are looked at in history as too primitive or too long to be developed to relevance...
