And it would have culminated in an ancient WWIII around 400-500 AD when both empires were growing weak due to corruption and needed one last hurrah to restore their glory.

God damn that would have been an historian's wet dream. At least to me it would have been

Shut up, old fart. You've told us like what? Three thousand times now? Go marry Carthage if you like it so much!

There is a sci-fi book called Romanitas with the general idea being the Roman empire never ending. So you have public crucifixions shown on TV etc.
Obviously the idea of 21st century Romans wasn't compelling enough though so they threw in some psychic mutants too.

Was Cato's catchphrase history's first forced meme?

They also had ready set up, steel crosses on the hillside, like gallows. And it had mechanical spikes that shot out from the inside to pin the victim in place.

We get that with the last roman-persian war.

Eastern rome vs the sassanids-30 fucking years of war, ending with all romes territory lost up to the capital, the city under siege, and a roman army slipping past the persians to take their capital, BTFO a fw field armies, and wreak havoc until the Sassanids agree to give everything back.


The sassanids feel into a viscous cycle of coups, the romans braced for a new golden age, their nemesis finally defeated...
and the Muslims came, just in time for romes cycle of endless war in the east to being again.
