Rough Roman Memes

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?

What have the Romans ever done for us??
You know, besides the aqueducts, the roads, baths, public sanitation, law and order...
You... You responded to the wrong comment my guy
Edit: No actually I'll take this one. Do you seriously think romans invented roads and aquaducts? They didn't. Or are suggesting Romans were some kind of benevolent force bestowing these technologies for free? Because that wasn't the case either.
Just to make sure: this was a movie reference to Life of Brian.
..... Bro where were you yesterday?? Hahaha we've started a whole philosophy debate now uuuuuuughhhhh
