There are obvious connections - calling it an Empire, for one. With a Senate. And an impressive army. Plus a dying old-fashioned religion. But I don't think it's meant to be a strict allegory in any sense. It's just a familiar framework.

i individually see issues in opposite of what you do, in this is early historic past u.s. fought wars with neighbouring international locations (tried to invade Canada in 1812) and on a similar time as there have been impressive suggestions of freedom and great thinkers there, the rustic became into easily between the final refuges of the slave commerce up till the civil conflict. With some exceptions (Isolationism, Vietnam) I easily have alot of understand for america over the final century and that became into the era the place the rustic became a superpower. one ingredient i will say is that america has in no way been an empire(no colonies) and has continuously been a republic (no monarch). As for comparisons to Rome, the U. S. is the greatest superpower like them however the similarities do no longer pass plenty further than that.

Sort of, at least as much as the Roman Empire inspired Hitler, who actually has the copyright on "stormtroopers" and used the "blitz" style tactics and cutting edge technology. Plus SpielBERG had a little issue with the nazis.

No, because in the special on the Discovery channel I think George Lucas said it was more like his own struggle against a coproration. Hence the empire being symbolistic of a corporation.

It could have been, or any other repressive regime in history.
