What should we call the 1500's-1600's?

I believe this era should be called the Powerful Era. From all the information I have learned from reading about the Ottoman, Safavid, Mughal, Songhay, Aztec, and Incan empire, they all seem to follow a similar path when they begin there "power." Each empire combined many great ideas, and built a good cultural structure to keep their empires running successfully. They pretty much covered every social and political aspect in which it helped them conquer others also. The better the chemistry among the people within, the better they will do surviving and taking over others.
