Explanation: Coming not long after the gladiator-mad Emperor Commodus (leftmost), the bloodthirsty and cruel Emperor Caracalla (middle), and the bizarre and impulsive Emperor Elagabalus (rightmost), Emperor Severus Alexander was a mild and reasonable boy, whose amusement of choice wasn’t bloodshed or wild orgies, not even theatrical performances, just watching baby animals play!

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.
