Pure cancer. Stop this.

Just had to make a fucking general.

Byzantine is a creation of the Germans to pretend like their Holy "Roman" Empire was one and undermine the real Romans. At no point in their history have the Western Romans called themselves Byzantines. The fact that modern Greek called hemselves Ellenes again instead of Romans is also a relatively recent thing. Where Ellene(Greek) had a pagan connotation but Roman had a Christian one.

All the worst boards are littered with generals.
Generals devolve very quickly to tripfag circlejerks.
They limit the variety on other threads and clutter the catalog.
Generals are the worst thing to have happened to this website in the last 5 years, which is really saying something.

The board is new, why the fuck do you need a general. Do you want to make a continues thread every fucking day about Roman history? Nigga this ain't /vg/. Don't need a general to circle jerk.

>>663
/rome/ should cover the kingdom of the rome, the republic, western, eastern and holy empires and so on. There's not going to be enough traffick to warrant split generals and they're all so linked it makes sense to keep it together in one thread.

Rome died after Hadrian. One or two exceptions, but it's all shit from then on.

No. The Short lived Roman kingdom after the fall of the WE is more Roman than they are. It's literally just the Pope's puppets.

>not liking the republic

Will /rome/ be a place to discuss Latin literature and so on, or just historyl?

>>1770
This. The Republic was the glory days of Rome. From the Gracchi to the Battle of Actium is by far the most interesting period in Rome's history.

>>1774
The board is now History & Humanities. So there's no reason not to discuss the books as well.

>>1378
Julianus was pitiful, in that his reign ended very quickly and was the result of the extreme corruption of the praetorian guard.

Elegabalus was a literal trannie who had himself fucked silly in orgies with the most well hung men in the Roman empire.

>Jew is a reifaf
not suprised

>>1880
In reality I think all NGE girls are shit, but if anything I prefer asuka. That's just a good reaction gif.

>>1874
Rather a degenerate tranny than a power hungry prick who fucked over the Roman economy so he could pretend to be Emperor.

>>1863
Cool.

I personally love all eras of the roman empire. Late era is one of my favorites along with the punic wars

>>1774
Sure. You can discuss literature on /his/ in relation to history, such as the propaganda values The Aeneid had on Augustus' regime, but as for discussing the literary devices on a non-historical level, that should be reserved for /lit/.

Don't worry senators, I totally want Rome to become a republic once again.
Let me just kill my former ally and continue this temporary rule for 40 years.

Give it a week or two. You could post basically anything that wasn't illegal on /mlp/ when they made that for like, four months before they got any moderation.

It's not like they consider /his/ any less of a containment board.
