Wow lots of good questions here. I'll try to answer to the best of my ability and I hope others will too.

1. Lots of tanks? Ha ha I don't know really. I couldn't find much info on it. Not every state was conquered through military might though.

2. I don't remember him ever saying he was the sixteenth emperor. Could you give the episode you saw that in? He is definately the 98th.

3. Once again I am not sure where this information is coming from. Could you give a source? Besides, every show has some continuity errors like that.

4. No idea. Felt like it I guess. Maybe in their Universe he was an admiral.

5. Akito the exiled is all about Britannia trying to take over Europe. The british isles are a part of Europe so I guess they kind of are trying to take it over. Also my own ancestors came from Scotland and Ireland but I call myself American. Likewise the Britannians probably don't even consider any part of Europe to be their homeland because so many generations have passed since they were forced to leave. They are Britannian, not British.

6. Hard to say. Although the concept of the strong devour the weak (as Charles says) or that people are not created equal is a concept from pretty much any era. E.g. kings have always believed that they were superior to peasants. I would imagine that similar beliefs were present at earlier stages in Britannia's development. Unless all of that was just what Charle's believed.

7. True, and the literal translation from the Japanese website is something different I believe. There was a similar discusion about this at some point before on this wiki and I believe it was decided to call it European Union as it made the most sense to English speakers.
