Rough Roman Memes

358 readers

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.

Chainmail too! A Roman writer even identified it as lorica gallica - 'Gallic armor'. Caesar writes glowingly of Gallic architecture and craftswork in his Commentarii, and discusses how several Gallic polities have government structures that resemble that of Italic and Greek city-states.

It's the G*rmanics that are the filthy ones!

Because you spell it "touthpaste" like an illiterate bastard, maybe?
