Surprisingly enough they do study Rome in their history classes.

Japanese and Latin are pretty similar in grammar, actually.
Latin, everything depends on the endings of the words and as long as you have that right you can put them (more or less) anywhere in a sentence.
Japanese, everything depends on the particle following the words and as long as you have that right you can put them (again, more or less) anywhere in a sentence.

It would've been so cool to see an actual contact between Rome and Japan.

"Holy Roman Empire".
This is very difficult to say while keeping a straight face. I wonder who can, because indeed it is hard.
"Holy", you say, while grinning like Voltaire did. "Holy", it is its name. But then, thinking of "Holy", you think about all the Emperors who were excommunicated. You think about all those who tried to fuck with the pope. You think about the wars of religion and how many of them ended up as protestant heretics.
But then, the funniest is coming: "Roman". Yes, now, you cannot contain your laughter. "Roman", it is called despite the fact that this "Roman" body is standing on Germania, a land so harsh and poor that the Legions of Rome refused to set foot on it. A germanic and barbaric people, yes, but still calling themselves "Roman".
And now, here is the end of the fun: "Empire". Now you fell on the ground, laughing so hard that you cannot breathe. An "Empire", a body made of dozens of petty duchies and counties, all fighting for themselves, giving strange names to their position, full of Grand-Dukes or Archdukes. An "Empire" who will stay between Poland and France, while the great powers of Europe will create colonies all around the world.
"Holy" "Roman" "Empire"

Islam was similar. The types of knowledge allowed were limited by religious doctrines and the desires of priests, bishops, archbishops, popes, and clerics to keep religious control over the population.

>>150868723
>Name one thing Islam invented other than some math equations (which they stole from greek teachings)
They also took that from the Phoenicians and Romans. As for wheelbarrow, egyptians predated them. And the claim of fire powder is false as that came from china who also invented the oil pipeline, noodles, sphaghetti, and those chickpea things the arabs are so proud about having as a "native" part of their cuisine.

Significant Inventions: Arabic number system with zero is based upon phoenician system. Assassin is from Islam and was a popular political succession method. The use of opiate oils. Jihad is from Islam. Entire countries ruled with theocracy. Terrorism.

True
>but by blood they were Scandinavian
Patently false. Rollo was Scandinavian, but he took a French wife. After a single generation the ruling family of Normandy was already 50% French by blood. If I'm not mistaken there are about 8 generations between Rollo and William. You'd be lucky if William was even 25% Scandinavian by blood.

Also, this "by blood" argument also raises the question who is and isn't a true Frenchman. By your logic not even modern Normans are French. Nor are Bretons, French basques, Niçois, Corsicans, Alsatians and Northerners.

>No matter what way you slice it, France has never conquered England.
Between the Normans, the Angevin Empire and Louis the Lion, that's three different French families ruling England, one of those being the French royal family.

Nice strawman, I never said they didn't have French blood, but that's got nothing to do with the fact that the invaders of England were not French; Normandy was a different political entity altogether and the Normans were not part of the French Kingdom.

Gate. The legions killed all the elves and monster girls and left the vampires and werewolves to roam the earth until the end of the Dark Ages.

Just make up some garbage isekai about a NEET being transported to an alternate version of ancient Rome where he becomes the emperor and the senate is entirely composed of cute girl versions of the most famous emperors who all want his dick.
>"Trajan-chan is a big poopy head!"
>"E-Emperor-senpai! Caligula-chan is being inappropriate again!"
This alternate version of Rome still hasn't expanded beyond the Italian Peninsula because the senate girls are constantly fighting, so MC now has to conquer the Mediterranean. He is guided by the Roman gods who wish to kill all the other deities and conquer the world, but the other gods just want to chill which leads to a lot of shitty drama where MC causes the death of honorable leaders and friendly gods. Along the way he introduces katanas and other staples of Japanese culture into Rome which obviously catch on and become commonplace for pandering.

The nips will lap this shit up.

He was a fucking consul of Rome. Ceasar didn't want him to be killed, or even humiliated. Time and time again he's preferred to humble people with forgiveness rather than suffering. Too many times his enemies have acted in fear without understanding that Caesar was above that bullshit. Remember that scene with Cato and Brutus trying to brown-nose Caesar because they think he's going to nail them to the senate doors, but he just kisses them both and asks if they were okay during the entire thing, like a minor civil war was just a fiasco and they can go back to being brothers. But the real cherry on the top would be doing the same thing to Pompey, embracing him like a brother in a peaceful triumph.

So he trucks on down to Egypt when they call, telling him that they've captured and killed an enemy of Rome. He shows up expecting Pompey to be dignified and respected in death, planning to make Egypt pay in some part for the emotional side of killing a long-standing friend and rival, but instead he finds that they've lopped off his head (and maybe did some evil shit with his wife and kids, but I don't remember what happened to them) and this child pharaoh comes out and starts mocking Pompey and Rome in general. So he stands up and loses his shit for one brief moment, and it's so impactful that everyone in the room but Caesar panics because he's the undisputed master of the greatest empire in the fucking world and he's going to start breathing fire.

The power of that chart is that it relates all true items in a timeline. It does so without creationism logic. People also know how grasping and greedy the Church was in those times and how it tried to suppress many aspects of science.

Every great Roman figure is either a girl or an Adonis. Scipio could work as a girl.

Hannibal would be a man most likely, blessed by the god Baal. Likely a season end boss that battles Scipio after going super sayan, and MC has angered the gods so they refuse to intervene. However, Bacchus, while drunk, lets slip that it might be possible to harness the spirit of the Capitoline Wolf, and since it is a venerated icon is might be able to challenge divine power. Thus MC and the girl senate race against time to defeat Hannibal and Baal before they kill Scipio and destroy Rome.
