Iberians never claimed any pagan roman autism and that's why they're actually superior to the Byzantine, HRE, Ottomans and Russians. The Hispanic empire was the Empire of christ, not of a bunch of degenerate in skirt.
The Spanish are definitely contenders for title of GOAT empire. Being the first to achieve an empire upon which the sun never sets is no mean feat, and their success is such that Anglos and the Dutch seethe about it to this day
I actually consider the Spanish and British empires the true successors to Rome despite (ironically) them never claiming to be, think of how much of a legacy the romans left behind, an entire continent tried to follow their example and emulate them for the next 2 millenia, now think of how much influence the Spanish/British have had, 2 entire continents, save for some Portuguese and French parts adopted their language and parts of their culture, Britain even pretty much turned all of Oceania into it's territory and continues to hold some form of authority over most of its former territories because of the Commonwealth, Spain ruled most of the new world at one point AND half of Europe, they're probably responsible for 75% of all catholics today, THAT is a legacy like the romans, other empires may have been equal in size and power but none have left a legacy like Rome, Spain and Britain >what about mongols or ottomans?
most of their former territories speak different languages now and don't really admire/look up to their former imperial masters
British only conquered empty hellholes that they never settled and the rest was bought by a israeli company, they never had a real empire, nevermind a European empire
Wasn't carthage overly reliant on mercenaries and only had a small armed force to defend some of it's cores in africa? Doesn't sound like Britain too me, closest i can think of is local allies among the conquered populaces and things like Hessians
>it's Spain's fault we can't rule ourselves!! >we brown people living here are, and at the same time aren't the inheritors of the civilizations "wiped" by the Spaniards! Das rite!
>built shitholes
that's on themselves and their american overlords
colonial spanish legacy is practically the only good thing in those countries, besides some precolombian ruins
>Spain demolished existing civilizations and wiped their populations out with germs and built shitholes out of what was left.
I think you mistyped "The British Empire"
Take the christcuck out of the Spanish empire and it would’ve been kino with the combination of Andean polytheism with Greco-Roman religion. VGH WHAT COULD’VE BEEN..
Todos sabemos que luego de la caída del imperio Romano Bizantino los únicos imperios que lograron algo similar o tener algún tipo de derecho de reclamar ser la tercera Roma son el Imperio Ruso o el Imperio español.
Tanto económica, social, militar, geopolítica, religiosa o científicamente llegaron o superaron a estos.
Pero los anglo/protestante/germánicos no les gusta que alguien mas los haya superado en todo tipo de sentido en algún momento histórico.
No, it was the first world empire unironically, oceans belonged to iberians for 3 centuries, Portugal, Naples, Aragon and Castile should have stayed togheter unders Habsbourg.

The Heir of the Byzantine Empire, Andreas Palaiologos sold his title of Emperor to Ferdinand II of Aragon so Constantinople is Spanish Clay
As if the spaniards needed more islamic lands other than their own
As Spain once was, Constantinople is Roman land infected by the brown religion, indeed, how curious
the kings of spain are also technically kings of Jerusalem
among many many other titles
America will end up speaking Spanish and being Castizo. Might as well just revive the Empire.
>Castizo
More like Zambo.
Idk I kinda miss hre
if only spain and portugal didn't break up man

VGH, THE GLORY OF IBERIA
>Fight way weaker enemies and get your ass kicked by people your own size
Why are spainards and portuguese people like this
what?
Dutch and prottie countries in general were always bad at war, all them togheter against portuguese and spaniards and yet they lost over and over.

This. If anything, Britain is the heir of Carthage, not Rome.
>Britain is the heir of Carthage
Both did human sacrifices to Moloch, so it checks out
more like the emphasis on naval power, strategic enclaves, grooming of local elites, etc.

Rome actually brought civilization and infrastructure to places.
Spain demolished existing civilizations and wiped their populations out with germs and built shitholes out of what was left.

Poltroony cope

*America = Third Rome
>cardboard buildings meant to last a year top
>ugly neoclassicism

Cringe tartaria denier
Only the Italians and french Americans are ethnically, linguistically and religiously Roman.

Efectivamente.
It can’t be Rome without Polytheism.
did any spanish monarch ever visited any of the colonies during before they got independence
Why going through a dangerous travel like that just to say hi?
Not to mention being exposed to a tropical disease or easily positioning himself as a target for assassination plot.
>builds shitty church in the middle of the desert
