i mean the pre made empires are kinda a meme you can just make your own, also there are plenty of loving aliens like the blorg, and there is another human empire the fully automated space communism one but that one is part of the robot dlc.
4x games always call every major faction “empire” regardless of its system, and it was right from the very start of the genre with original Civilization game. Idk if that’s purposeful liberalism but i doubt that, it was coined by Sid Meier and he surely didn’t read Lenin. The classical nonmarxist definition of “empire” do fit huge majority of them.
Depend, if let’s say tomorrow someone discover how to break the lightspeed barrier (extremely unlikely but not impossible), imperialists will pump money in that.
If that someone did discover it, odds are that someone would be in China, rather than trying to work through the choked mass of deliberate sabotage that is required for scientific advancement in the imperial core.
Yup, China is pushing more research then west in the space and theoretical physics now. West currently is still ahead because they have infrastructure and tons of accumulated experience but they will be left behind in the future.

I meant in terms of an “empire” reaching advanced, space faring stage. Looking around, I doubt it is possible
