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: At the start of the Roman Empire, the first Emperor, Augustus, implemented a tax (or rather, liability to additional taxation) on Roman citizens who were single instead of DOING THEIR DUTY TO THE REPUBLIC and finding someone to BREED MORE CITIZENS WITH!
The law endured past his reign, but was never really all that effective or rigorously enforced, lmao.
