Reminds me of the rubbish metaphysical philosophical question of "if a tree in the woods fell and there's nobody around to observe it, did it make a sound?" But it's "if I die and am no longer around to observe the universe, does the universe keep existing?"

But for the british it's "if the queen is dead and no longer around to rule the empire, does the empire keep existing"

The answers are as follow: yes and yes because metaphysics is stupid idealist nonsense, and :ukkk:
