Rough Roman Memes

778 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?

Hopefully this meme/post at least partly ages like milk with the new Pope Leo XIV.

You know that's gotta piss off the orange shitstain and his cronies, but what are they gonna do about it when he starts condemning the crooked and careless shit they've been up to?
