Abiding by the current rules of engagement, bogged down everywhere they went by guerrillas and terrorists using non-combatants as human shields, what would be the size of the -
Mongol empire?
Ottoman Empire?
Roman empire?
...
 
I don't know about the others, but the Ottomans would never get very far if they allowed terrorists to use civilian shields.
