Explanation: When Julius Caesar was sieging the Gallic fortified town of Alesia, he built two walls - one to keep the Gauls in Alesia, in Alesia; and one to keep Gallic reinforcements out of his camp, leaving the Romans nestled between the two armies. A siege within a siege!

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.
RULES:
-
No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.
-
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.
-
Follow Lemmy.world rules.
Not sure where to start on Roman history?
