Roman Empire

See, now that is where one gets nitpicky about the idea of "nation" and this gets performatively nerdy.

That was my first reaction: what do we mean by a "nation?" Is it performatively nerdy? Haha, I feel authentically nerdy and abuzz with questions!

We talking about a particular government/regime or just some continuity of format? Which borders, ie which constituent territories? Do ethnic tribes count? Does the pub and it's chain of ownership and hereditary patronage count?

Pick the date the roman empire ceased to exist

Even the shortest reasonable date is well over 250 years.
