empires  

Définition

  • Empires are supra-societal organizations that bind together smaller political units, which had previously been disjunct, into a single political system. The constituent units of an empire are ranked, and the location of each unit in the imperial hierarchy is fixed, with virtually no opportunities for upward mobility.
