Rough Roman Memes

947 readers

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 Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?

Hic lūctus? (Is this grief/loss?)

Maybe Rome actually COULD have been built in a day had they not wasted so much time using letters to count.

Got me! I'm surprised that I haven't come across this iteration before

Is this a 2048 solution, Roman style?
