A flattering comparison no doubt...
but I think I would take the history pages with a pinch of salt, I had a look to verify your claim, and I find FANG in r46 had Alliance defence: 3959, but oddly Total defence was less: 3530.
On the basis of alliance def higher than total def, the ult of r45 also comes out higher.
As a result I have no idea if they were higher than your figure or not (though again more members) but what it does suggest (as Bram has already hinted) is that there is little consistency in how PA records defence.
[Edit] this phenomenon of alliance defence higher than total defence recurs a lot in the 30s and 40s, I'm mystified.
