Rough Roman Memes

425 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?

Its barely readable in the third panel, so just in case anyone wants to see more of these fantastic comics there's the source

Go to opposite sides of the room. The lion will fill up by eating one of you, so you've got a 50-50 chance of surviving.

Until he’s done eating the other guy. You assume the door will open.
