If you could rule an empire....

[Lokolus]

If you could be a ruler of an empire\state what will it be? you can say both existing and historical states. I think I woul'd be an Emperor of Rome. (Don't post before the poll)

 

[Bast]

King? Please! Empress of the British Empire. I wouldn't accept any other title.

 

[bathsheba666]

Here, here. Only kingdoms have kings...

 

[ComradeDavo]

Probably start off as ruler of Prussia, so I could unify Germany and shape Europe as I please....

(I have been playing alot of Victoria lately )

 

[philippe]

The Exalted Emperor of Greater Germany.

You too? Though I prefer to unify Italy as the Papal States, for the challenge.

Anyway I will go with Viking Monarch.

Sorry for my chauvinism...

 

[Masquerouge]

I would be a Polynesian ruler. With my own private island.

The British Empire would be perfect. It's large and developed enough for that to be a very prestigious an dluxurious position, but not so developed that I'm far from absolute power.

 

[Mirc]

Rome would be just too cool, although something with truly absolute power has its advantages. So apart from that, I'd pick whatever state respected its leaders most and gave them most freedom to play with whatever they want.

I'd like to replace Hitler sometime at the beginning of the war.

I'd say Persia, like from the 300. When you look at it from a lifestyle perspective, the Spartans really sucked, going around mostly naked, shouting and kicking things, nothing to look forward really except for pawing some stoned girl at the top of a mountain when you get old. Even the furniture looked uncomfortable.

Darius on the other hand, there's a guy who knew how to live. Hot and cold running nymphomaniacs on tap 24/7/365, and slaves to look after every little thing. And an Empire that included Egypt, Palestine, the Greek Cities of the Anatolian peninsula, the Phoenicians, Central Asia, and poking into India. You couldn't do better for a central location. If not for several generations of idiots, Persians could have ruled the world.

I picked Rome, it would be too cool!!!

After I voted, I saw this option: Nazi Fuhrer

Interesting to see who picks this...because all it amounts to is raping Norwegian women and gasing Jews.

Although I think Julius Caesar exterminated countless Gauls!!!

 

[Gilder]

Hard to choose. King of the British Empire, Kaiser of Germany, Holy Roman Emperor...

I pity the fool that chooses Russian Czar.

I picked it under the assumption that I could go the way of Hermann Göring and just shoot up Morphine every day. Gasing of Jews / raping Norwegians wouldn't intrest me.

Well maybe the Norwegians.

 

[Till]

Caliph of Cordoba, or Duke of Franconia, can't decide...

 

[nc-1701]

Shogun of Japan!
One word, concubines!

Alternatively being a Klingon Emperor would be pretty kickass

I googled Norwegian women...

 

[MjM]

Roman Emperor, by far. Ruling over Rome would kick so much ass.

 

[Romanfe]

I voted Emperor of Japan as they had the least chance of being killed or thrown out of power. Poll is sexist.
