I want to see people saying “That’s my Hanseatic League” or “How often do you think about the Oxus Civilization?”

    Rome was in the bible. Rome executed Jesus and then became a Christian state. Rome took over the entire Mediterranean. That’s why they’re memed so hard.

    Imagine if this was a country today:

      This means literally nothing to people who live outside of Europe. Congratulations they united the Mediterranean. China existed at the same time too and continued to exist for the next 2000 years with the same borders intact minus a few hiccups. Rome not only imploded it was also fucking backwards along with the rest of Europe and the people that inhabit it are fucking savages unlike the rest of the world. The Polynesians are the true civilization carriers of all of humanity, they colonize far off islands and shit peacefully, eat all kinds of fruit, fought giant birds, had the lowest working hours in history, I mean read some of the accounts they had of early Hawaii, shit was so efficient they got done working by noon and surfed all day, that is success and agriculturalists were suffering all day.

        yeah but you don’t get memed by relaxing and leaving everyone alone. you get memed by being messy and loving drama, like rome.
