Would you rather be a land-owning citizen in Greece or Persia circa 475 BC?
>>
>>1822389
Greece.
Persians are faggots.

>>1822389

Depends on which city state, but probably Persia desu.

>>1822389
Greece if Thebes. otherwise Persia

Greece, if I get to be an Athenian, as around that time they started to evolve into the naval superpower of the time.

>>1823188
Greeks are pedophile faggots, no just any garden variety standard faggot.

>>1822389
Persia.
>>
>>1822389
Where in Greece? Every city state had it's own laws.

So. Persia.
>>
>>1823273
greece. chances of i seeing my 50s is much higher in greece where it is a taboo to judge victim's death and so on and so on. in persia i could get rekt by a satrap or some local faggot over some trivial issue.
>>
>>1823864
That like almost never happened outside of some outliers. You could have the same shit happened to you by one of the various tyrants in the other Greek city-states.

Anyway as for OP I'd pick Persia, more cultures, more exotic peoples, more varied cuisines and the King's law is universal.

Why the fuck would anyone choose Rome when it had already gone to shit?
>>
>>1827264
It was always shit. The glorious Sassanids were always superior.

The only good Roman scholar was Seneca. He was special.

this is always tossed around yet there is no evidence to suggest homosexuality was present in all Greeks.

Greece obviously.

Well putting today's ideas from society to theirs just fucks everything up so you can say they were Faggots but it's not the same

That doesn't happen till the Sassanids codified and made orthodox Zoroastrianism you stupid faggot. Which is about 1700 years later.
