Fairly often, but mostly because I have a Roman Empire obsessed friend who, regardless of conversation topic, always manages to make a comparison to the Roman Empire.

Not at all. I think about the British Empire and Ottoman Empire more, but still not much.

At least twice per week. I'm male.

I happen to live near quite a few structures like amphitheatres and coliseums, and although I'm not into that kinda stuff, I'll sometimes visit and just imagine all the minions who were part of their creation. Every stone in a mosaic was laid by a pleb like me, and I feel a connection to them

I was talking about it in the pub last night.

My sister asked me this and I was shocked when I realized that I think about the Roman Empire at least once a week

Probably a few times a week.

I didn't realise this was a thing.

Whenever I think of Fomenko (basically daily) I think of how fake everything about the Roman Empire is.

At least 2-3 times a day, I love their technology, the aqueducts the roads and the stone work. I love to think about post empire when the Germans Gauls and British were living around their ruins unable to build structures like they could. I think about the citizens and how similar their lives are to ours then how drastically it changed post empire. I think about how awful it must have been to be a slave in that time.

I got hooked on rome from Dan carlins hard core history series on the fall of the republic and he did another one on Cesar in Gaul.

I think about how Christians helped ruin Rome. Basically the west died and all the smarts went east. The west suffered and spread its disease ever since.

Woa, this post made me smarter just now
