Military- a military is a unit of people that have specific skills in the art of war. A military is used to conquer land and to protect it from invaders so that they don’t lose their land cause land mean’s money and power. The reason for an empire to have a military is to control the people within their boarders and to keep intruding invaders out from taking over their land. A countries military can be measured on how many men they have or by how many wars the have won. No matter the case a military is a resemblance of power and power is key in any successful empire, power rules over all.

Economic- In an empire there are two types of economy’s and empire can base itself on, metropolitan or for a sectional interest with influence over policy. Economic gain can be in the form of land; land is a profitable way to make money on crops and animals. Like in every place around the world money means power and people strive to achieve and sustain power. Power is what people use to share there believes and others follow them because they want their power. Empires are greedy and want money to prove that they are more powerful than their surrounding empires and to show dominance.

Politics

Political- politics is many groups of people who vote on what laws the people inside the empire’s boarders should have. A party of the government can make any and all decisions of the government but must be approved by the majority of the counsel. Government is a good example of balances in power so that one branch of an empire doesn’t come into to much power over the empire. When politics come upon to much power it becomes corrupt and in turn the empire falls apart and turns to war within its own borders.

Social

Social-the advantage of having an empire is so that you can influence the decision of another empire due to the fact that they are less powerful than you. When you have power, which is gained by either controlling land or by having a strong military to control others by or both, you have a social impact on others. Which in turn can lead to alliances, which are when two empires join a team, and normally one of the empires follows the other one because they are more powerful than themselves.
