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.
Not sure where to start on Roman history?

The English Empire was actually still smaller than the Mongol one for most of their lifetime(s).
A lot richer and more populous, of course, but you could make the argument that was just the times.
I'd respond, but it would take months to cross all that empty shitty steppe.
yeah, if you suck at riding horses and don't know how to raise animals, sure.
Kızgın Romalı çok mürekkep döktü.
Ok atacağına, mağra adamı gibi cirit atacakmış.
Yolsuz ovaları bile geçemiyor, bırak koca dağları.
O taşaksız oğlanları rahat bırak, edepsiz.
Biz sizi köle yapmayız bile. Ya tamamen gömeriz, ya bize birleşip medeniyeti öğrenirsiniz.
The angry Roman spills much ink.
He does not how to use a bow and arrow, he throws spears like a caveman.
He cannot even cross a roadless meadow, let alone mighty mountains.
You leave those castrated boys alone, pervert.
We won't even enslave your people. Either we will bury you whole, or let you join the civilised world.
