Do Anglos really believe that Italians are not related to Romans?

>>53859951
AYYY TONAY WE WUZ ROMANS BUDDY

AAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY WAYTAH!! CAWN OI GET SUM GABAGOOOOOOOOOOL OVA ERE?

"roman" was a very small population then and now

the italian people has not changed much since then

but genetically a true blue trojan original roman is closer to myth

>>53859974
True desu
Romans did dosh out citizenship like Sweden

>>53859884
Yeah, I wonder how can the same people who share the land, roots, history, culture with Romans and speak a roman language be related to Romans.

>>53859884
They are, but they share that heritage with other people like the Spaniards.

>>53860031
>a Roman language
>share the roots
>share the culture
bait desu baka senpai

Romans originated in Latium, and spread outwards. So, you can be far away from Rome and be a descendant of Romans.

>>53860113
according to aeneas they did not

there has to be some kind of meaning since they are the only people in that region after the iron age collapse to have the greek pantheon

>>53860064
Your post is clearly bait. There is little genetic variance in Northern Italians from Ancient Romans. They are the closest culturally and linguistically to ancient Romans.

>>53860064
You do know roman languages aren't the same as Latin?

Let me put it this way, noigel. If you really consider yourself """"germanic""" in origin, Italians have far more rights to call themselves descendants of Romans.

>>53860173
aeneid is an epic poem, not a history book, lad.

WE WUZ EMPERORS N SHIET

>>53860254
the romans were different to their immediate neighbor the etruscans and it is known that the etruscans were migrants who kept the latins' close relative the faliscan under domination

so what probably happened was the romans turned to adapt to the semi-greek culture myth to one up the etruscans

>>53860173
According to whom? Aeneas is a fictional character. What the fuck burger.

Once Rome fell it was swamped with cunts from the Gaul though these cunts might have had Roman citizenship they were most definitely not roman
Try the Byzantine empire if you want descendants

>>53860355
How is that related any way to what I said? Romans adopted Greek culture because their culture was considered to be only non-barbaric culture. Etruscians influenced Romans too, btw.

>>53860476
F A M
Romans hated the Greek though they did see them as sophisticated (lots of Romans spoke Greek as to seem cultured and smart and sheet) they would never see them self as adopting Greek culture
Fuck senpai even the origin story of Rome has rivalry between Greeks and the Romans

>>53860476
considering all of italic people as descent of roman is bretty wrong as the latins do not have many close kins unlike the germans

as opposed to other italic tribes like the ones in the social war

they never considered the other italic tribes as their own hence no representation in the senate

>>53860402
irony what is that

Hundreds of years of movement and breeding leave little resemblance to ancient ethnicities. The same is happening at an accelerated rate in our own lifetime. In another 500 years people will not be the same, let alone 1000s.

What part?

>>53859884
Culturally and spiritually, yes we are. From a genetic point of view, modern Italians are pretty much the same as the different people who lived in ancient Italy 3000-4000 years ago, or a mixture of such people in some areas.

>>53859884
No, obviously Romans disappeared from the face of the earth in 476.

>>53860552
>imblying
Some Romans were notorious for patriotism combined with greek-hating. But not all. Hating someone doesn't mean you aren't influence by its culture. Literature works by romans were translations of greek works, for example. They were peasants and warriors, of course they turned to more civilized greek culture as a role model.

>hurr romans were 2.90 aryan warriors who had only blond hair

>>53860384
Aeneas is not a fictional character
He was from Troy
Thus a Turk

>>53860992
all romans are italians but not all italians are romans

not the hardest math in the world

>>53860570
This is just plain wrong, bud. Also you're incorporating your own modern views of ethnicity on Romans and they didn't have those.

>>53860969
>more civilized greek culture
>city states that went to war with each other every month and killed off 50% of their populations every time

>>53861022
"ethnic" difference is irrelevant since all of italics can be one "ethnicity" except the greeks and later germs

>>53861014
are you a burger

>>53861031
They were more civilized according to Romans. Not my personal assesment.

Keep being delusional

Why do a*glos care so much about disproving our historical and logical links to Romans, like all we did was ranting on "how great we were" twothousands years ago, when the time most current Italians are most proud of and feel closer to is City-States Italy? Is it the shit your propaganda spreaded during and after war or when you switched to meme Christianity? How pathetic and insecure desu senpai

>>53861581
romans are the example of domination of one people over all others, it is literally masturbation material

no Italian will ever understand this
