... and that's the western empire, to be specific.

The eastern empire went on for a 1000 years more. I don't have to mention that to you 🙂

But the 21st century being an accelerated time, maybe it will only take 30 or 40 years for the American Empire to collapse. With 9/11 being the triggering moment where we societally lost our collective shiit.
