= World History =



== Dissolved Empires ==

Empires that either don't have a convenient modern equivalent, don't have a widely recognized successor state, or are so ancient that successor states aren't relevant. The [[WorldHistory/SovietUnion|USSR]] actually does fall into those descriptions but it's rather insufficient to treat it as ''just'' a chapter of [[Russia/Democratization#Soviet_Union|Russian]] history.

Empires are distinguished from international organizations by the number of states with effective agency. The [[WorldHistory/EuropeanUnion|EU]] is multi-polar, while the [[WorldHistory/SovietUnion|USSR]] was not.
