Rome: Okay, but once the war is over we can send fresh wine and olive oil up into your provinces
Rest of Europe: Yaaay!

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?
A quick memetic primer on Republican Rome

They also carry information (for war ofc)
The troops need good marching routes!
