What is it about?
This study is about mathematical analysis of the rising dynamics of empires in the history. It is a work on sociophysics or histophysics. The rising mechanism and the achievements were analysed by using chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, and viscoelastic theory. It was extended to the current situations on the world concerning the independent countries and the unions of the countries.

Why is it important?
It reveals the dynamical evolution of empires in the past and sheds light on the present situation of power struggles on the earth.
Perspectives
History is not a science of only the past. According to Aristotle 'the current actuality is the potential of future actuality'. Whatever happened in the history is carried as memory to our present time. In order words, the evolution extended to the current time contains the ingredients and the forms nad the behaviors of the past. The analysis of the formations and extinctions of states in the history is like studying the biological evolution of species. In order to understand the international struggles in our age we need to understand the past using concrete terms, which, can be achieved by using pure science, i.e. matematics, physics, chemistry, and related topics.
