Seeing as they mention America's 250th birthday I am going to mention that the average lifespan of an empire is 250 years.
But also most empires didn't live in the age of instant global communication and endless propaganda power and surveillance.
Yes, I am sure all existing empires will now last until the end of time.
I don't mean to say that, but they might be much sturdier.
