Rough Roman Memes

443 readers
31 users here now

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?

"But what has PugJesus done for us except high-quality memes, shitposting, historical education and keeping a whole community afloat?"

I'd help but I just don't think about the roman empire all that often unfortunately

Just keep commenting and posting on whatever interests you. It's like a big dinner table here.
