But even with fixed external borders (anthrax and barbed wire) internal politics will change (although no empire will ever fully liberalize with atomic siege and 'war authoritarianism' rampant in even the most democratic ones) and I expect a limited degree of decolonization even in the worst...

Or something like Basic English which is meant to 'simplify' the language goes the full way (pronounciation, grammar, loans from major languages and Scientific Latin) so you get Besik Ingilish sentences like Kwiki braun wulpa salta oba lanlan doga [kwɪki brawn wʊ lpə sæltə owbə lænlæn dowgə]. so...

Supplanting them may be impossible, but some sort of defacto equilibrium (certainly not dejure) as with Singlish isn't
