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:
-
No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.
-
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.
-
Follow Lemmy.world rules.

The best part is Caesar would threaten to have them crucified all the time and the pirates thought he was joking. So, once the ransom was paid and Caesar was set free, he went about raising a naval force, captured them, and crucified the lot.
What a joker that Caesar was.
Dohohohoho!
It's okay. They were pirates. Vile and dissolute creatures, the lot of them!
