Examine the rise, reach, and profound global legacy of the British Empire, the largest empire in human history. At its peak in the early 20th century, it spanned nearly a quarter of Earth's landmass and population.

Key Topics & Highlights:

• The phrase 'the empire on which the sun never sets' was coined because it had territories in every global time zone.
