Rough Roman Memes

401 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?

Or all the empires for that matter (if I haven't missed a joke)

I'm not sure if you got the intended joke which wouldn't make your joke any less valuable. Most empires were before plastic was a thing. The Inca empire or the Tsar empire didn't have plastic yet so they didn't leave all this waste behind
