  1. Gosh, what's with all the pessimism. The only way I can think of instant death of human civilization if an asteroid a mile wide or more in diameter had hit earth. Gonna mention it now, but I believe in an afterlife, so we're all going to heaven.
  2. There should also be a film on how the Romans and Mithridates feuded. There should also be a movie on how Rome conquered Greece. There should be on the putting down of Jewish revolt, though destroying the Temple might be offensive.
  3. I extremely like how you think there Germanicus, it certainly would be a good scene. As for me: 1)The battle at the Milvian bridge and Constantine's vision/dream of the burning cross along with the words "in hoc signo vinces", him getting baptised, well his life basically. 2) An dramatic Oscar deserving movie of Caligula. 3) The whole conquest Galliae. 4) Trajan's Dacian campaign. 5) What Germanicus said. 6) Countless others.
  4. Sorry Simon 2, but I don't think there's a word for legend. The Romans didn't differentiate stories, they see every story as the same type. Sextus:1) Ante lectum ( use this if you intended to refer to time when as in the time before the chosen) 2) Prae lecto ( use this if you want to state position to refer as literally standing before the chosen.)
  5. Never's been conquered, damaged, or destroyed, now thats what I like.
  6. I see him as a villain because of the fact that his Russian campaign resulted in only 25000 surviving from an original number of a massive 600,000.
  7. When your hungry, I suppose there's no better alternative than eating doormice.
  8. Hey, I saw that documentary too. I don't get it, why are those people so adamant about their false beliefs that they can't realize it, even with the help of science.
  9. I agree, but I do believe in a Marcus Artorius Castus without the king Arthur stuff associated with him. Hm, the Holy Grail, I believe in it too.
  10. Bravo, bravo. Good story. But it seems theres to be a lot of repetitiveness.
  11. What exactly is that thing at the bottom? Reminds me of the movie, A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words( its about pixies driving u mad)
  12. This may be random, but as of a few moments(minutes) ago, there seems to be a huge flux of guest. Today I've seen the number of guests around 50+, amazing. How much people can UNRV support anyways?
  13. How well does your job suit you and ...pay you? I would love to have your job. Gives me aspirations, even though I'm horrible at math.
  14. Darn...I don't mind flood control at all really, it only seems like 15 seconds to me.
  15. There are many risk in lifting something thousands of year old and is very fragile, not to mention its a pain in the blank to clean it regularly for the next 7 years in order to put it back together and display it. ALSO, its lots and lots of money, so really, you will seriously need rich patrons.
  16. Prosciuto?Huh? How much do the Europeans like their cheese really and is wine still largely popular?
  17. Ursus, I have a question. When Constantine defeated Maxentius, did his soldiers immediately convert to his new cult(Christianity) because of this decisive win even though the majority were all pagans? I think my question might be wrong, but you know what I mean.
  18. I'm not old enough, but if you guys find it funny, then I don't find it funny then, the difference between old and new generation thing.
  19. Thanks for the correction, I did an on-sight translatin. I was unsure about the may part.
  20. If I'm wrong, correct me, but Traianus here mentioned Aurelius, so I was responding to him. Well he's not on the list :bag:
  21. Only reason I could think of is because Rome,before the Gallic Wars, was repeatedly raided by Gallic and German tribes. Remember the Sacred Geese story, thats one example. Also, remember that many Gallic tribes joined Hannibal to fight Rome. In many respects, why not conquer those barbaros once and for all before they sack Rome again.
  22. I don't think M. Aurelius was that good of a general, his campaigns were too passives. Instead of the conquering the Germans once and for all, he made a campaign of really just trying to keep them out of German, subduing them only temporary. By the way, and no offence at all,shouldn't it be Gaius Julius Traianus, thats the real way in latin if you intended it to be a true latin cognomen form.
