(1) the Austro-Hungarian Empire, (2) the Ottoman Empire, an (3) Tsarist Russia, and (4) the German Empire.
Mark Mazower's book "Dark Continent; Europe's 20th Century" states on p.1 that WWI "swept away four of the continent's ancient empires." I could only think of three -- the fourth, apparently, is the German Empire, which was far from ancient at the time of its collapse. Wikipedia states that the term "German Empire" is "commonly used ... to describe Germany from the unification of Germany ... [in] 1871 to 1918 when it became a German republic after defeat in World War I." As noted in the wiki article, the German Empire had "47 years of existence."
However, the article also notes that the term "German Empire" is sometimes used to refer to the Holy Roman Empire, which was dissolved in 1806. Despite the gap of 65 years between the two, could this be the fourth "ancient" empire to which Mazower is refering in a very broad sense?
