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 Piefed.social rules.

Fun fact: Despite being thought of as balding in the modern day, Caesar didn't start going bald until after his conquest of Gaul, when he was entering into his 50s. As something of a lifelong dandy who was famously vain and attentive to his appearance, this was distressing to him, hence the constant needling of his baldness by his enemies (and some of his friends when in a more raucous mood).
