A computer game which requires alot of strategy and takes place in the early "ADs". You can play as various civilizations and your goal is to rise to become the most powerful one (or last surviving) in the map. Online play is also featured. The expansion (AoE: Conquerors) features more civilizations and new units (military personal / technologies). This game makes for a great alternative to masturbation, or can serve as a "timetaker" while your downloads complete.

The Aerican Empire is a micronation, consisting of the imaginary planet of Verden, the northern hemisphere of Pluto, and 2.91 square kilometers on the surface of Mars. It also claims to own Parrwater, (a lake in Canada,) The Pasture (a random pasture somewhere in the American Midwest), Earth Colony, (a small house in Montreal, Canada,) Psyche, (50 square kilometers of land east of Melbourne, Australia,) Chompsville, (one square kilometer of land somewhere east of Psyche,) and Retsaot Island (a 400 square meter island in the middle of a lake in Ashburton, New Zealand).
The national religion is Silinism, in which the believers worship the Great Penguin, know as the Forsteri. The holy text of this religion is the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Though not widely accepted as a real nation, its citizens are very patriotic, and anyone can become a "citizen" by going to their website (aericanempire.com) and saying that you want to be one.
John claimed to be from Verden, but everyone knew that he lived in his mom's basement. His citizenship in the Aerican Empire did nothing to help his case.

A fragment from a future encyclopedia article
…The American Empire appeared to be the sole major power on earth between 1990 and 2000, after the disintegration of the Soviet Empire in 1990. However by that time, the Empire had been in decline for some time – Imperial power probably peaked during the brief reign of Emperor Kennedy the Young in 1961-63. Thereafter, the power of the Empire was sapped by a ruinous proxy war against the Soviets in Vietnam which led to extensive dissent within America over the morality and purpose of the war. The symbolic power of the Empire peaked in 1969 when American astronauts successfully traveled to the Moon, landed, and returned safely. Five more visits to the moon were made, but the expeditions to the Moon and plans for even bolder exploration of the Solar System were ultimately abandoned because of the cost of the war in Vietnam. Within one generation, the accomplishments of the Moon landings seemed so incredible that an increasing number of Americans refused to believe that they had ever happened.
The most serious decline of the American empire began when George W. Bush was appointed Emperor Bush II under suspicious circumstances in 2001, after a contentious succession from Emperor Clinton I. Subsequently, the American Empire was assaulted by eastern barbarians. Ironically, the eastern barbarians gained some of their power and stature from support they had obtained from the American Empire in another proxy war against the Soviet Empire in Afghanistan twenty years before. The barbarian’s assault was a great shock to the Empire’s citizens, and the Empire reacted by getting into wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. These wars sapped the empires strength without seriously affecting the barbarians. Another effect of these wars was to drive up the cost of petroleum, which meant an end to the cheap fuel which had allowed imperial citizens to drive massive vehicles called SUVs without worrying about the consequences.
Also, these wars increased international uncertainty, driving up the cost of the raw materials that the Empire needed to survive. To pay for the ongoing wars, the Empire was forced to borrow enormous amounts of money, with much of the debt being held by the resurgent Chinese and Indian Empires. The American Empire also inadvertently weakened itself by ceasing to manufacture most items, preferring to contract out this work to China. This tended to destroy the prosperity of many American citizens (except for a few rich oligarchs called CEOs) even as it strengthened the empire’s rivals.
The accounts of the Empire’s collapse are fragmentary. It is known that an evil cult known as Wal-Mart…

The alternate name of the fanbase and territory of the San Francisco 49ers. The original being the 49er Faithful. The origins are believed to be inspired by John Madden once calling the 49er dynasty of the 80's "the Holy Roman Empire of the NFL." SF Bay Area writers also referred to the 49ers fans as "the Niner Empire" to oppose the Raider Nation. The Niner Empire name was adopted by a group of diehard Northern California fans during the down years of the mid 2000's, and has grown in popularity since its' inception. It is made up of various factions of fans from all over the US, and even worldwide. Demographically, it is all encompassing, though one thing remains the same: they are all fiercely loyal to the 49ers, known for their predilection towards rowdiness and general belligerency, especially to rivals teams and fans.
The stereotype of San Francisco fans being soft, wine 'n cheese snobs has been destroyed by the Niner Empire, the loyal, proud, and hostile fans of the 49ers.
Only the most diehard, faithful 49ers fans may call themselves part of the Niner Empire.

refers to the all-powerful Chinese empire which dominated the world.
The Celestial Empire would annihilate any of its counterparts around the world.
Challenging the Celestial Empire is equivalent with handing your ass over to be raped.

A slang used by Hippies and yuppies since the mid-60's to denote the corruption of the US, particularly in the empyreal business and corporate sectors, most specifically global chains, such as McDonalds, Starbucks, and Wal-Mart. "An empire of selfish pigs" somehow got shortened to "Pig empire". Sometimes also used to refer to the American government
Dude 1: Where you going for lunch?
Dude 2: McDonalds.
Dude 1: Bleh, Why don't you go to a local sandwich shop, I don't want to support the pig empire.
