some or the great states OF Europe ana or
the western hemisphere that the enormous
dimensions Of the British empire can be
appreciated The extent of European
Russia Is slightly in excess of 100000
square miles that of Brazil is about g.,
OOO, 900, while the United States, includ-
ing Alaska, is about 5000, 900 square
miles. China is still larger than any of
the nations last mentioned, having an
area exceeding that of the United States
by nearly 100000 square miles. But the
British empire, within its new and en-
larged boundaries, is three times as capa-
cious as the United States Out of that
domain could be carved territory as large
as this country, Brazil and China COM
bined, leaving enough over to make three
states like France, Germany and Austria.
The empire, of course, is not as homo
geneous as any of the natiors mentioned
and the ties which bind its widely separ-
ated branches together are far loosen and
more shadowy than those which hold the
vast possessions of Russia in allegiance to
the Muscovlte Yet the domain over
which Victoria rules In theory at least is
vastly broader than that over which Alex
ander exercised supremacy, and is more
widely extended and diversified than the
world OF civilized, semi-civilized and bar
barous states which, in the days of Caesar
and Augustus. acknowledged allegiance to
Rome.
