Empire and Goth: What do they mean?

Empire: Empire to me means power. It means a people who have banded together to overcome their enemies and neighbors. It mean a potentate, powerful, influential, and smart enough to maintain control. Empire also means a sturdy army with faithful soldiers. It means a culture and society of people who are enough together in their thinking, that they can work together without collapsing. So this culture becomes universal throughout the empire. Each person will have ideas and practices that are similar to those around them. Empire means a group of many people who can work together to become a force that can conquer with ease.

Goth: What goth means to me is something creepy. Something sinister and unnatural. Something that can give me the chills and make the hairs on my neck stand up. It is impactful and influential and makes the heart beat at a faster rate. It is something that is a rebellion. Something that goes against the formal flow. Goes against the classic Greco-roman culture. Goes against everything people believed to be "right." It is a resistance. A gripping and enthralling counteraction to the cultural norms of a society.
