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 Piefed.social rules.

Thank you so much for this extensive and interesting write up! Maybe put it as main post somewhere? Because it really is explaining very well the differences and would be a shame to leave it only here in the comments.
Most interesting part to me was
Because that makes so much sense considering the points you explained before but also shows that humans are the same, no matter which era.
Maybe I'll clean it up a bit and source it and post it on the non-meme history comms if I'm feeling ambitious. Normally I don't source my arguments unless requested, because I had enough of making extensive citations in college, but this one makes enough assertions that it would probably be valuable to do so.
