How often do you think about the Roman Empire ?

[Retro Doomer]

Ave Everyone how often do you all think about the Roman Empire.About its greatness and what could have been if it did not collapse also on what was lost when it fell,and who is you Favorite Ruler of Rome ?

Ave don't we all need a Roman Waifu ;)

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

Pretty regularly... I was a huge Caesar III fan.

 

[Retro Doomer]

As a Germanic Person the Roman Empire puts me on a really weird spot ;)
We where arch Enemies but I respect the Roman Empire for what it was,besides some obvious bad Stuff.But they did Manage to create a Great Civilization and Empire and they brought much Innovation that sadly was lost for the most part when Rome fell.
Also Ironically enough I like Caesar and I don't mean the Brand ;)
Oh and I thing about it from Time to Time.How did a Ancient Empire Manage to build better roads than we the Modern Societies again ?

Rarely

I only think about it when Hannibal and Scipio enters the chat. Or I am in need of entertainment (that's when a chad will ask: "Are ye not entertained?")

But if you ask about the end of the Ashikaga Shogunate or the end of the Han dynasty, very often

 

[Bonkers225]

I'm reading about Caligula, and everything surrounding him, and the lore, so everyday.

 

[SherionVane]

Every single moment

 

[PrismRed]

Umu, very often.

 

[Rox00]

I sometimes give them the thought, I do read more about the mythology side. Oh and also Nero posting (umu).

 

[elwynd16x]

Funny enough, I've had the same thoughts recently but with ancient Greece. I think they thought about a lot back then, so I'm thinking of them thinking about thinking. Thought tax.

Every day I think about sacking it. Me and the other Germanic barbarian tribes be like:

[Grumpy_Old_Man]

A tricky question... The answer is, It's impossible not to think about the Romans as their ingrained in our language(Romance ones), culture, laws, Literature... You get the idea...

 

[VampireLord1024VampireLord1024's icon]

I never thought about it.

Well Even in non Romance Languages like in Germanic Languages has Latin some Influence and yes most of our Laws are Inspired by Rome.
Like em or not they certainly did have a lasting Impact on the World.
They also mastered adapting to a certain extend wich earns them my Respect.
Besides there Roads where far better that what we nowadays can manage to do for some fucking reason.

There is also things like "french" influence in the English language and how the Anglo-Saxon changed since the Normans occupation of England... Those guys were at war for most of their history from the Hastings battle to the Napoleonic wars.

Every day. Especially to my Man

Flex me some lettuce.

 

[RebelofDaNeonGod]

Outside of when people outright mention Rome, never. I personally look at people sideways when they raise the question or talk about Rome often. More often than not, there is a reason WHY they think about it constantly. If you do, I know what's in your heart, I can see your soul on the edges of your eyes, it's corrosive, like acid.

 

[Leon]

Pretty much daily, looking at the current state of the US it's hard not to see parallels to the late roman republic.

 

[DjQuick2008]

Spartan total warrior is the game for that.

 

[ATenderLad]

I heard they killed a guy with two first names, Jesus Chris? Sounds like a rough crowd, I'd steer clear of 'em.
