I mention decline a lot on here, in passing, as in decline of the western empire. But I don't feel I have a good grasp of the history of empires more generally (well, things that have gotten that label in history, like the roman empire).

And I don't want to end up in bougie land trying to learn more about it, cause I figure they're going to romanticize empires more so.

Justin Podur's Civilizations podcast is really good but it is focused on modern history starting at the end of 1400s and they are only covering the inter war period. So give it another year or so and they'll have covered the fall of the british empire.
