A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.
RULES:
-
No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.
-
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.
-

@CheesyFox I had that happen when I was in Carlsbad New Mexico, which on the west part of the Permian Basin Oil field (Texas has the eastern side) . I was in the hotel elevator and an oilfield worker got on and said 'what brings you to Texas'. That's not the first time I've had a Texan say that to me in various places. Texas is wherever they are, apparently.
What i had in mind is to ask a Texan to point out a random place on the map and then go check whether it is an oilfield :D
