Church before state.

I'm talking 1922, when the empire was at its largest, and yes, Canada was no longer ruled by the British parliament. India was self-governing but with a British military presence, and Australia was around the same point of Canada.

lol, so in 1921 however, as all this land was still under british rule, Britain had a larger empire

EDIT: point of order, canada is still run by Britain.

Also, I'm thinking its not until the 40s that real independence started for Canada, or even Tredeau...

It was all ruled by the same monarch-making it an empire.

Nevermind then. Mongolia is still the largest CONTIGUOUS empire though. 😛

Well, we could always bring in...populations.

Britain wasn't as involved in their colonies as they could have been 🙂

I'm sorry, it wasn't until early 1900s that Canada was not officially ruled by British parliament, and to this day all of our legislation must be approved by the Queen.
