I just don't find the British empire to be impressive, that's all.

And what's the irony? I did say they ruled over a quarter of the world, didn't I?

What's not impressive about it? It had the largest empire in history, and it did that without the empire even being contiguous. It also colonized what are now some of the wealthiest nations in the world (even if they became nations after freedom), such as the United States, India, Canada, and Australia. Not to mention that they had territory on every continent in the world.
