>>

>>2310563

>>

>>
America is the new Roman Empire, prove me wrong
>>
>>2310571

>>

>>

>>2310571
>Don't speak a Latin language
>Aren't Catholic, or Orthodox, or Pagan, or really have any state religion
>Don't even have civil law.

Besides being stronk and having a hard on for classical themed government buildings what exactly is Roman about the USA?
>>
>>2310571
>don't even have rome
>not even an empire
How the fuck can they be the roman empire?
>>
>>2310609

people in the roman empire didn't know for a long time that they were in an empire. even constantine in the edict of milan 313 talks about rights and traditions of the republic. imperium means military domination, and emperor is its holder, marshal or a president. nato, anzac and all other alliances is american imperium. that is hiw early roman empire looked as well.

>american freedoms and rights = roman citizenship, very desirable across the empire and available only to italians till 212 ad.
>spread of english as a lingua franca = latinization/romanization
>panem et circenses = consumerism and hollywood
>divide et impera = american foreign and internal diplomacy
>tolerance of religion, especially the protestant denominations = polytheism
>the most universal and inclusive nation and culture in the world (global immigration) = roman imperial cultural absorbtion
>mexico, shitty neighbor that develops through closeness that slowly destroys the universal nationalism and introduces the ethnic one = germania
>>
>>2311692
also, the cities with gridlines, meaning planned cities settled by colonists, not the converted ancient ones.
>>
>>2311692
this
delian league, italian socii, it all the same
>>
>>2310571
>don't control rome
>don't speak latin or greek
>no emperor
>no slaves
>little to no actual culture
>>
>>2310606
Trump is Cesar. Barron is Agustus
>>
>>2310571
Well, your Founding Fathers did rip off Republican government without the Tribune of plebs and a fancy new executive branch while expecting it to work better than the other thousand times they were practiced so you're not far off a Julius Caesar turning you into some Dictatorship I think.
>>
>>2311692
>american citizenship, very desirable
to whom? mexicans?
>spread of english as liga franca
the brits did that long before the bongs came along
>panem e circensenses
true enough, but most societies have that
>tolerance of religion
in a country 80% christian, in which most believe the constitution to be delivered by god itself, and take their rights as "god given"?
>the most universal and inclusive nation
who's now turning down immigrants and trying to get mexicans to go away?
>mexico and germania
germania never infiltrated rome, and rome fell from political degeneracy, not from the germans, they just sacked the remains
>>
>>2311775
please do not compare trump to caesar

caesar was the one who conquered some of spain, france, england, anexed egypt and defeated pompey, was the pope of the time as well as the richest and most influencial person in the world.

Caesar was also idolatrized to the point of near divine status by the people, something trump definitly is not
>>
>>2311786
>implying edgy fucks didnt hate caesar for attention too
>>
>>2311786
the donald is a title that is a name, much like ceasars. and who is the 'god emperor'?
>>
>>2311790
>implying 50% of the population of the US are edgy fucks

besides, caesar was smart enough to never let it get to the rebellion point you see in the US.
to bad you can't crucify people these days...
>>
>>2311795
since when is donald a title?

a title for what?
>>
>>2311692
eu then might be america's eastern roman empire, older and wealthier people that felt superior to romans and thus didn't romanize as much as the western part.
>>
>>2311780
>the brits did that
Lol. No one would learn English if it wasn't for the US
>>
>>2311849
The success of the English language has everything to do with the British Empire.
>>
>>2311692
yeah, america is very much a naval power like roman empire, which had a fucking sea in the middle. it makes sense that lands across the sea felt more threatened by their neighbors over land then by italy, and then sought their protection. roman dominance over the seas also secured free trade across the seas, with rome in the center.
>>
>>2311854
don't forget rome despised naval warfare, and avoided it whenever possible.
>>
>>2311853
Lol. It will have probably dissapeared little by little in most of Africa and Asia if it wasn't for the US. Stop being deluded Nigel
>>
>>2311866
Why? Let's talk about the English language then.
