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 am a slave, I work for the master. The master does not give me money. I am tired. I am not able to eat. But my master isn't generous, he is a cruel man! I think that slavery is the most stupid" - Slave

"You do not like slavery? But you live in a Roman house, and walk on a Roman Road." - Master Kirk

"But, you see, slaves are actually a good thing. And since I depicted myself as the chad Socrates and you as the crying soyjack, I win the argument." - Plato

After reading Plato's Republic, I understood why Romans hated philosophers and thought they were useless.
