Deletion of List of longest-lasting empires (2nd nomination)

Comment: per Ogre. Classic example of a list whose premise is inherently synthesis and whose scope cannot be anything but |original research
Stance: delete

Comment: This list collects together links to other Wikipedia articles in reverse chronological order, a worthwhile purpose. The detailed references should be in these articles, not here. I believe it passes  under "Information" for chronological lists

Comment: Well, , and its , but it's all original research, so there's no standard that it lives up to and it's up to the latest editor to define an empire.  By definition, an "empire" is ruled by an "emperor", so I get it that Bokassa the First's "Central African Empire" is on the list, but "The Third Reich"-- WTF?  I guess the Thirdreichian Emperor was Adolf the First
