Rough Roman Memes

387 readers

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 Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?

I'm sorry, the best three groups of citizens have already voted, and there's not enough votes left for the rest of you to matter. Please have some bread and promise not to murder us, as we conditionally promise not to murder you.

Oh yeah!? Well, we'll take it from the Centuriate Assembly to the Plebeian Assembly!

... wh-what do you mean the rural tribes, who are less numerous and need to be rich to be able to afford to take time off to come into the city of Rome itself to vote, get 31 votes to our 4??
