Roman Love Thread

[Colonel Howe]

If you're like me (if that is the case, contact me immediately as my identity's been stolen) then you love the Roman Empire, its history, its military and its culture. Post your favorite Roman anything.

Things include:
Books, movies, public figures, military figures, wars, poems, mythology, or general events.

For me, its really hard to pick between the Second Punic War or the era of great social upheaval between the Social War and the Reign of Augustus.

ROME LOVE NOW

I remember reading this thing called Seven Imperia or something, it had Roman-ish people in it. 10/10

I heard the guy who wrote that is a narcissistic tool bag who frequents the anuses of children

I heard it's like Harry Potter, A Song of Ice and Fire, the Bible and Mein Kampf had a gangbang of words

I'm currently taking a Philosophy class at a University. It's mostly based on the Greeks but we are studying about the Romans too. On that topic I think my favorite Roman would be Cicero.

Very true because you realize what their doing is fucking awesome but then you're like "oh death"

Except Sulla. Sulla's a cunt in my professional opinion

We do live in an age where much of there ideas have influenced us, yet are partially despised (like dictatorship, etc) by us. I think it's the same with most of history

Yeah, no doubt but it isn't the dictatorship that bothers me. He gave that up before he died. It's the fact he gives more power to the Senate and makes it harder for ambitious men to move around the system.

Probably because of old age "Conservatism" became his policy and that he feared over ambitious men would take over the Republic.

Which they did anyway   

Hail Caesar, we who are about to die, salute you!

Lol true

Ambitious men with such ability like Cæsar are unstoppable. 
Now on to Cæsar, who can't like him?
