Bello · Answer 1

Yes i'd say so, at least that's what history has taught us. The largest empires were the ones who are known today as being "world powers" because since a lot of land belonged to them they held most of the power. A great example of this is the Roman Empire

Priscilla Yu · Answer 2

Yes.

Explanation:

The largest empires in the history of humankind have had a large mount of power over the world, for example the Mongol empire for a while reign over a large portion of Asia, and it had a lot of power over the world, the Roman empire had the same amount of power and influence over western and eastern Europe for over 10 centuries. The expansion of a empire is directly correlated to the power and influence it holds in the world.
