The Rise and Fall of the British Empire by Epic Epoch

(Disclaimer: This is an original work of historical non-fiction by Epic Epoch.)

How did a tiny island come to control a quarter of the world—and why did it all come crashing down? From tea and trade to tyranny and revolution, this is the untold story of the British Empire. Told without fluff or fanfare, this book journeys through its golden age, brutal colonization, and the unraveling of an empire that once ruled the seas.

"The sun never sets on the British Empire." – Common saying during the 19th century

Discover how Britain's hunger for power reshaped the globe—and how its pride, overreach, and resistance to change led to one of history's greatest collapses. Understand the mechanics of empire, the cost of domination, and the consequences still felt around the world today.

P.S. If you want a sharp, cinematic tour through the rise and unraveling of British rule, this book delivers it in full force.
