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.

Explanation: Pyrrhus of Epirus, an enemy of Rome from whom we get the term 'pyrrhic victory', was an accomplished general and monarch over several lands. He was eventually killed while fighting in Greece - during combat in the streets of a city, a soldier's mother tossed a roof tile on his head, which either killed him, or stunned him for long enough for the soldier to finish him off. Don't mess with ma!
