Also, for this reason, some Romance languages still use words derived from Vespasian's name for urinals.
I expected it to be some oblique reference, but in Italian it's literally vespasiano. It's always crazy to me when thinking about Rome. Some guy taxes urine and 2000 years later his name is still part of the vernacular.
When reading about European contact with Japan it's always weird to me there were converts. Shinto / Buddhism has done you well for like 1000 years and then these barbarians show up and you're just like "hmm maybe they're right?"
