Rough Roman Memes

447 readers

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?

Trying to decide if "the third option" is the Confederacy or the Nazis. But if I ask, I'm sure the answer will be "yes."

[–] PugJesus 21 points 3 months ago

I would ordinarily say 'yes', but the Confederacy was never a nation, just a handful of states having a bit of a disobedience problem. :)

But yeah, Nazis was what was intended. Fucking Wehraboos, luring in edgy teens.

I assumed they meant "Sengoku era (Edo period) Japan", but yeah.
