America is in its 250th anniversary but not as an empire. Its dominance as the world superpower is relatively more recent
Good point. Dating the empire is tough. In a sense, the Civil War is a reasonable place, because that's when the central government took supremacy over the states: i.e. what had been a collection of sovereign societies, became a bunch of conquered ones.
