By my read, neither France in late 1700s nor Weimar Germany were empires in the real sense. They were side shows to true empires, and so they hyper inflated until reaching oblivion.

Rome was an empire, did dilute its money, but deflate-imploded to nothingness, as in everything got to be really cheap relative to true money. Empire credit must deflate to tag w/ empire's decline.
