Rough Roman Memes

676 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?

Well, the Roman vessel has legionnaires on it, and I skimmed the wiki for Corvette, but it seems to have a hand full of harpoons to attack, and a phalanx for self defense.

Everyone knows that's a terrible formation for a naval boarding action, so the romans are going to kick ass. Come on bro, 8 harpoons I've seen whalers with more harpoons in a rowboat.

(Also, that's a Saudi Corvette, you cheater!)
