Difference is that Rome was able to survive for another thousand years after the fall of the western half of the empire. I severely doubt the US will pull such BS, or if it does it’ll be some random ass rump state like Trebizond or Theodoro.

Rome was continually called Rome, but people harkon back to old empires and see themselves as extending it. It had many civil wars and changes and moved capitals and everything. My point is that if we call that one empire, maybe historians will consider the US as part of the larger Anglo American empire
