“Finally done.”
-Romans, the day before Rome began its gradual decline“Hell of a start guys! Good effort all 'round! Let’s keep the energy going, okay?”
“We ordered a bunch of flatbreads topped with cheese, honey, and fruit for anyone who stays back late tonight.”
“Wait 'til those fucking Persians see what we got planned!”
Also, guys - guys - we don’t have to do everything the greeks did, okay? Like, maybe we just drink the wine as is, and don’t bother watering it down?
“Look at this guy! What next, Mr. Innovator? How about we wear clothes when we exercise? Or maybe throw away our valuable urine?”
“Next thing you know, they’re gonna invite women to the orgies! Preposterous!”
“Hold on! I think Simplexus is on the something here…”
Which came first: Rome or the romans?
The Romans.
There were a bunch of people living in the area, farming and worshipping the gods, who shared similar values and felt a certain unity. Those folks got together and started building a city.
People build cities, buildings do not, so I’m going to vote for people coming first.
