The British Empire was at its peak in 1922 and was largely gone by the 1960s - I think that is actually rather faster than the decline of the Roman Empire!

edit: 1992 to 1922

I think the point is that people in the UK are mostly happy, healthy and better off in many ways than when there was an actual empire.

That's not true of a lot of places when things 'go south'.

I assume they mean 1892. But, I dunno, maybe time travel is a thing, even at the global level. ;)
