A jewish boy has just been born in the far away province of Judea, Caius Octavius has managed to save the Roman Republic and will die in a few years for another dicator to take place. Slaves have radically changed the economy of Rome, poor plebeian farmers can't compete against giant slaves farms owned by the praticians. Cheap grains from the recently captured provinces have made them bankrupt.

Rome has never expanded this much and never will again.

Kill Jesus before he becomes a famous cult leader.

Now you can give him a snack.

How do you go from Rome to Judea ?

>>734100473

Read "The Green Bronze Mirror".

Without a distinguishable trade and without knowing any useful languages, you would likely end up a slave in the fields if male or ugly female and probably a brothel slave if not an ugly female.

>>734100473
Well I'm white... I really just have to kill some body and take his land. Easy living.
Until Jesus shatters our perfect utopia

Assume you speak fluent Latin and have the status of a Perigrini (free man but not citizen)

>>734101923

Depends on what you're carrying. You may get some kind of free pass if you have a watch or a phone with full batteries. Your clothes will be remarked as well if you meet a tailor.

But yes, even if you know a trade, you'd still end up as a slave because we're completely dependent on tools we don't know how to make.

A smooth cotton t-shirt could surely be traded for a few sesters. If you know your way around maybe twice the price of a common clothe to pass as a lower class citizen.

What would they think of a jean though ?

Try to get enough money together to start the steam age. Any educated man should be able to use skilled workers of the time along with their own knowledge to get the beginnings of electricity, radio, explosives, guns and steam engines.

If you aren't educated enough to play the part of the Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, then you need to get crackin, because you aren't a man yet.

become a warlord somewhere in the middleast

>to start the steam age
when is this meme going to die already...

Da Vinci couldn't do it because of poor quality steel. You actually need the hundreds of years of alchemy and blacksmith evolution of the """dark ages""" to get to it, same for gun.

Maybe with electricity you can start a rudimenatry motors to assist an artisan, some ceramic worker who need a rotative plate.

>>734103256

I know what smelting and ceramics are. I know what temperatures bands are. I know what charcoal, peat and coal are.

IF YOU ARE IGNORANT, it isn't my problem you are a manlet. Given skilled tradesmen of the time and access to the markets these things could be done easily.

You are just stupid as fuck and don't even know how stupid you are and your stupidity is leading to you making assumptions about the abilities of others.

Leonardo didn't have access to even a SINGLE basic text on modern chemistry or mechanical means of production asshat.

Wondering why you guys aren't trying to change the government of Roma and prevent it's untimely collapse.

Or, even accelerate the collapse and become a philosopher king who knows how to do absolutely phenomenal things. Behold, electromagnetism! Arithmetic engines! Optical illusions! Modern chemistry! Gliders!

industrialize, they had the tech but not the will. if rome had industrialized it would have spaned the entire planet

>>734106707
>but not the will

More like not the appropriate economical system. Yes, they relied heavily on manpower and you could give them mechanization, but what happens to the rich owner of thousands of slaves ?

You are suddenly going to say him 'hey buddy, I see you own a nice artisanal pottery shop here... what if I tell you for a small investment in my experience you could get rid of half of them ?"

Then you would have to explain that using slaves to gather fuel (wood, coal, whatever) is more important than using them directly for their manpower.

Hire a fleet of ships and cross the Atlantic to become the discoverer of North America.. Colonize, plant hemp fields, commercial use cannabis as medicine... Roman Empire never fails. Forward 2000 years Pax Romania still.. Space travel, technology, and already will have civilization on the moon and Mars.

>the discoverer of North America
Where in America ? You go for New Amsterdam ?

you do realize that time in history was lousy with prophets an messiahs, so killing jesus would only lead to his displacement

The south where climate is relatively better for agriculture... Also I would make friends with the Native's and their beliefs would become the dominant belief system in the world rather than Christianity... Sure Christianity might still exist, but not as the Roman Catholic Church.. No Crusades, no Inquisistions, no conquering land simply for "religious" reasons.

>>734109687
"religious" meant "politic" at that time

>>734109795
Sure, but with the introduction of technology, "politic" and religion would be moot.. water filtration, sanitation, modern agriculture, would make all of the fighting unnecessary.. Not to mention no one would want to fight anyhow, they'd be too high from the cannabis(aka marijuana) medicine rapidly spreading across the world.. The Romans already used opium, and alcohol so knowing about a third drug/medicine might just tip the balance.

cant fight worth shit, so hopefully i'd respawn as a woman and then fuck my way to security

>>734110583
wow you're fucking retarded, you'd just be raped and killed or thrown to the side when they're done. literally no security for you

>>734100473
I'd go hang out with some philosophers, might be able to convince them I'm from the future and have interesting chats. Hopefully won't get executed for witchcraft.
