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?

This is the first time I've seen Asterix in English
I'm a rare American who grew up reading it because I lived in Germany for 10 years.
Ich bin auch eins davon. In zwei Tagen macht es zwei Jahren seit ich nach Deutschland umgezogen bin.

"You there, Britunculus! What's your name?"
"... Bart."

Who are the Britons?

Ah, right, we are ALL Britons!
And I am your king.
Well I didn't vote for 'im.
Y'know just the other day I was at the shop and some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me.
Does that make me emperor?
More questions: what if it was a dagger, falchion, or machete? Does the type of sword dictate the office to which one is elevated? Is it affected by who does the giving? Bint vs tart? And how much of a factor does the type of body of water play?
