Rough Roman Memes

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?

No lie! There's nothing racist about seeing members of a given race as all looking the same. It all comes down to experience. Fox example, after being around my wife and her friends I can call out a Filipino vs. other Asians, almost flawlessly (in person is much easier of course). Couldn't do that before.

We were having a garage sale and my wife asked a visitor if she was Filipino. I'm thinking, "Of course she is! It's not obvious to you?!"
