The Ottoman Empire
A empire is a civilization that has conquered territories and has many subjects all under one ruler. I chose the Ottoman empire because 1, the Ottoman empire follows all of those guidelines, and two, they survived for almost 6 centuries. They were created in 1299 in modern day Istanbul and their peak was in the 16th century when their empire stretched from the Persian gulf to Hungary. What really impresses me is that the Ottoman empire kept their empire together even though they had many different cultures and religions that were different.
