Topic on Talk:Land of the Shattered Empire

Before launch I think this needs 1: A catchier title if possible 2: Figure out a better way to list historical settings that are commonly taken advantage of for this trope 3: Preferably at least one other contributor adding an example. Anything else?

MOD: The page still has Category:Pages needing more categories. It is not yet ready to launch.

Added a few categories.

Thanks. Sine there are more than two categories other than the pagename and "Trope", we can take "Category:Pages needing more categories" off the page now.

"Land of a Shattered Empire" would ring slightly better - beyond that I'd have to sit and think about it.

We should get some more examples, but if we can't it's fine. I like "Lands of a Fractured Empire" as a title much better, though. It flows together a bit better.

Nothing's coming to mind right now, but I'll put a pin in it.

I'll try to add more examples

I am curious about two possible examples that might work, but I am unsure. First, the Holy Brittanian Empire from Code Geass was created from remnants of the British Empire, which could be an aversion or being played with. The next is Digimon Adventure 02, where the Digimon Emperor's defeat left his territories with the Dark Spires still functioning, leading to the Digidestined destroying them while being resources for the next antagonist to use. So, do they fit?

Does the Brittanian Empire speak a single language (at least officially)? If it does, it definitely counts.

It's national language is English from what I researched.

A question: How does this trope interact with After the End? They aren't duplicates of each other, but explaining how they're different would help define the trope (and make the description a bit longer).

Isn't After the End more about a post-apocalyptic setting while this trope is about an empire that has been destroyed which left some kind of remnants?
