Imperialism: a policy of extending a country's power and influence through diplomacy or military force

I don't see how you build the Aztec Empire without it.

This is any state ever. Diplomacy or force are literally the only tools by which they can see to their interests. Seriously diplomacy? That's imperialism? Are you insane?

Is this communism@lemmy or neoliberal Wikipedia readers @lemmy? Colonialism is a prerequisite of imperialism. The aztecs weren't great, but they definitely weren't imperialist.

Imperialism is when big country attacks small country!
