If you were living during the later days of the republic then you would be lucky to have a day go by when someone's army didn't march on Rome.

Post-Marius(you can argue post-gracchi) the Republic was a husk at the mercy of popular politicians or generals. The first centuries of the Imperium were mostly stable(with some interregnum chaos here and there).

They imagine themselves linked to an ancient "power" and parallel their modern racial tensions, basically WE WUZ EMPERORS for white people. Same with the crusades.

Empire is always bad. The only people who think otherwise are mouth breathers who mistake significance with worth. Also perfidious albions.

Anything empire is pretty damn shitty. It swallows up other unique interesting culture and after it's death it has morphed and transformed them to be somewhat similiar, and less charming.
