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.
MORE COMMS ON THE HISTORYVERSE:
Explanation: In the Late Republic, land reform had become a major issue as wealthy magnates began to dominate the rent of public lands at below-market prices. Instead, it was proposed by the populares, the reformist faction, that many public lands be granted to small farmers to work for themselves.
Obviously, this terrifying and revolutionary idea was enough for the conservative optimates to outright murder numerous populare politicians whenever the issue came up.
Time is a flat goddamn circle.
Conservatives... conservatives never change...
