You're forgetting about episode 1's introduction with Britannia invading Japan and Lelouch's past - as well as that picture of C.C. fleeing a battlefield with an old Mark I tank in the background. Clearly, she doesn't seem to age - I'm not sure when did the CG-LotR equivalent of the Mark I tank appeared in the ATB timeline but I'm going to assume she is at least a hundred years old, provided, of course, that military technology didn't see quantum leaps the likes of which were seen during the two world wars (everyone knows that war accelerates the pace of progress through increased research...and since Britannia seems to be a quite belligerent nation...well...).

I'm not sure she is immortal per say or if there is a catch to her existence, like, for example, she is not permitted to die until she fulfilled a certain task of hers (free her civilization? retrieve a lost artifact?) - like Ciel in Shingetsutan Tsukihime (in Ciel's case, kill Roa so as to end the paradox binding the two and allowing her to finally die like an ordinary human instead of being revived each time she's killed). Either that or she's like an overseer that has to see it through till the very end...meaning that she'll respawn as long as there is a reason for her to remain in this mortal coil.

Nope, the British Mark I tank was introduced during World War I, and with great effect since it showed Germans how powerful tanks could be against mere riflemen cluttered inside the trenches...and they committed the lesson to memory so well that they made huge developments in armored warfare, eventually taking the lead in that field. Other nations like France (Ironically, De Gaulle was the only one who defended tanks...as well as the only general who managed to score one victory against Germany before France was defeated and surrendered) just thought tanks were BS and direly paid for it.
