Rome was based & immensely better as a civilization than any (((modern))) bullshit will ever be.

After the western half fell, Europe actually went backwards in terms of technology. Central heating and the ability to produce concrete vanished. Europe would actually have little importance on the world stage until the voyages of discovery and the age of enlightenment.

Reading ancient European history is demoralizing because you feel powerless in the face of what is happening today.

The Roman road network is still used today in many parts of Europe.

I know, it makes me feel that, just like the Roman Empire, it's golden age has ended and the long, slow collapse has begun.

The sort of architecture which our Fuhrer, in collaboration with his genius Minister for Armaments, Dr. Speer had envisioned for Berlin if the forces of Aryan magnificence had won the war against the jews. Of course much of those buildings had been inspired by classical Greek and Roman architecture and Hitler himself was an huge admirer of the Parthenon in Athens, as any civilized man of culture would be.

Who is your favourite Roman Emperor?

People say Augustus because he was the first emperor, but Marcus Aurelius has a special place in my heart for his writings about stoicism. It helped me a lot.

He is considered to be the last good emperor. I like him mainly for his military achievements in Germania and the Balkans.

You obviously are more knowledgeable about Rome than me. I have not studied Roman history that much. I plan to, but it is so rich a history that the time it will take me to fully grasp what happened there is daunting.

Its one of the greatest civilisations as far as I'm concerned.

10% While Roman architecture is actually quite fascinating, it is actually best discussed in the "lounge" section

First you get the legions, then you get the women.

Modern architecture is a lot like modern art, I'm not an expert on these things but it seems to be about making things ugly on purpose. Bring back the architecture of old!

Every municipal building today looks like that

Museum reclassifies Roman emperor as trans woman

It comes after classical texts quote the emperor saying "call me not Lord, for I am a Lady".
