Rough Roman Memes

917 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?

Instructions unclear, hit a dead end near a bunch of Picts.

Edit: There's only a 50% chance of following a Roman road the correct direction.

Should've asked directions to the crucified slaves on the side of the road. That's what they're for.

I did, they just pointed both ways!
