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.

The funniest is them just absolutely ignoring the whole Roboute Guilliman thing where he wakes up, looks around, and is so appaled and shocked by what the empirium had become that he nearly noped the fuck out of there before getting a pep talk from his dad.

Robot Gorillaman was fine with the totalitarian autocracy and casual xeno genocide of the 30k era, but even he is aghast at the sheer pointless tyranny of the 40k Imperium. Goes to show it can always get worse in the Grimdarkness of the Grimdark Future.

Absolutely. I think for the majority of the writers, the pointlessness of it all is the main theme.
