The Rare Empire That Jumps
ykno w we've had all kinds of root causes for imperial decline over the centuries. barbarian invasions, economic crashes, just general overextension. but this might be the first time that "total dissolution of the spirit" is at the heart of it all "all empires fall but it's rare you see one jump" where's that from? me, i legit have no idea why i put quotation marks around it and i was hoping nobody would ask
A screenshot of a social-media thread shows one user discussing the causes of imperial decline and quoting the phrase “all empires fall but it’s rare you see one jump.” When another user asks for the source, the poster admits they invented the quotation and hoped nobody would question it. The meme is used when someone confidently presents made-up wisdom or fake quotations.
