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.

I have no idea what half of that post means. Is this how my granpa felt when we talked about the books and videogames I liked as a kid?

It’s ok, you’ve come to the right place.

Mountains are big rocks. Carthage is the place where cars are made. Hannibal was a person who liked eating other people a long, long time ago. Rome is a common name for the end of a road.

Hope this helps!
