A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. 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.

  3. Follow Piefed.social rules.

you got way too offended about the whole empire falling and me not being sad about it.

Again, proving your illiteracy.

I don't give a fuck whether you're sad about the Roman Empire falling. I give a fuck about the pop history myths you're uncritically repeating, and then doubling down on when confronted with any sort of historical fact.

imagine if you asked someone what time it was and they gave you a 15 minute monologue?

Oh, is that what you did? Asked what time it was? Not made an immensely stupid assertion about multiple ancient polities and then whinged when it was it was disproven because too many words made your head hurt?

you just seem to assume that all states in the past were empires, just some more successful than others. which is false.

"I was just asking what time it was ๐Ÿ˜ญ"

you were just wasting your energy

It would seem I was writing to someone incapable of reading, yes.

again with the wall of text.

maybe you're just an LLM and don't know better
