	Based on these criteria what empire lasted the longest? It had to have a unified government. It also had to have suggnificent military strength. It also has to have conquered at least one other nation as powerful as itself and be able to retain control over any conquered nations for at least 100 years. So what was the longest running empire in history.

	There is one thing I forgot to mention in my question about the longest running empire in history. I want an answer based strictly on those criteria I mentioned. I'm excluding everything else. Such as political influence success in trade alliances size of land it occupied. When you add all these different factors together theres going to be lots of opinions. I want answer based solely on my definition of an empire.

	It depends on your definition of the British Empire by the crieria listed I think its pretty much excluded.
