This critical historical exploration shows a portrait of the British Empire at both the peak of its global reach—and the moment it began to topple. September 29, 1923. Once the Palestine Mandate officially takes effect, the British Empire—now covering a quarter of the world’s land and boasting a population of 460 million—is the largest the world has ever seen. But it is also an empire in rapid transition.
