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?

Explanation: The Ancient Greeks referred to outsiders as 'barbaros', because to the Greeks, other languages sounded like gibberish - "Bar bar bar". The Romans adopted this term ('barbarus') to refer to people who were neither Greek nor Roman, and thus clearly uncivilized!
