Here's some people discussing Greek/Roman relations
http://www.unrv.com/forum/topic/5076-roman-atitude-towards-greeks/
You may now proceed to act like you know anything about this
>>140866026
This is some top bait
>>140866026
m8. The Roman ideals of art, citizenship, literature, even their mythology is all based on the Greek standards. The greatest Roman poet of all time wrote a sequel to the Iliad and people loved the idea they were descended from Trojan royalty even more then their own foundation myths. The reason the Romans sacked and destroyed Greek cities was the same reason they slaughtered Gaul and Druids, purely political. The fact that they treated them like gods afterwards, I mean look at Nero literally wishing he was born as a Greek and not the Emperor of Rome, is proof that the Romans loved Greek culture and set out to emulate it.
>>140864262
>>140865415
Well, if i'm i remember my history classes, I think that Carthage was a fenician conoly that grow too OP, so actually most of north african people were very greek-like, a little more to the south, in the sahara and you would find, same case with the ptolomeos (The egypcians) and the palestinan, before the romans arrived and put the jews in charge
when the fuck is my little dictator coming out?
>>140866026
>>140866026
Marcus Aurelius loved Athens more than Rome, and he wrote in Greek
Even in the republic speaking Greek was a sign of being civilized and was in many ways more important than Latin

... are you implying that the Phoenicians were Greeks?
>>140866172
>>140866259
>>140866488
Tell me, what books on Rome have you read? What Roman time periods have you studied? It's incredibly basic knowledge to know that Romans treated Greeks as second class citizens and many of them despised Hellenistic trends. Roman culture may have borrowed a lot of elements from Greece, but their relations were much more complicated than that. That's like saying Japanese people love the Chinese because they copied Chinese culture. To call someone a Greek was an insult in ancient Rome. Why don't you read the thread I linked? It's a forum completely dedicated to discussing Roman history in depth, and not a single one of them tries to refute that Roman citizens looked down on Greeks. For example, Gaius Marius was a famous hater of Greeks and Hellenistic culture.
>>140866660
>That's like saying Japanese people love the Chinese because they copied Chinese culture.
Whereas what you suggest is that the Heian Japanese considered Chinese as inferior beings.
>>140866523
>Why dont you read more than one fucking history book
>implying I haven't
You should attempt to read at least one history book. Also, you instantly oust yourself as an illiterate by trying to discredit Michael Grant's knowledge of Roman history. The fact that you want to discuss their history without knowledge of Michael Grant shows how ignorant you are, catamite.
>>140866599
Holy shit, i mess up that, no, nono, they were not greeks, they were more like persian o something like that, i don't really remember that, but i think they were from the palestinian area, or syria, still they would look kind of white compared to they southern neighbours.
>>140866774
>Whereas what you suggest is that the Heian Japanese considered Chinese as inferior beings.
Hahaha oh wow. You don't even realize that in the Heian period, Japan decided to terminate all official relations with China. Besides, your example is a poor metaphor with no actual bearing.

Fucking plenty, definitely more than you, I actually study Roman and Hellenic history part time at school.
>Gaius Marius was a famous hater of Greece
Gaius Marius also learnt fluent Greek after being ridiculed for not knowing it
Marcus Aurelius is known as the "Greek" emperor and is regarded as one of Rome's greatest leaders
All senators and emperors spoke fluent Greek and often wrote in Greek, not knowing Greek was subject of ridicule. See: Gaius Marius
All well known Roman political figures were educated by Greeks either in Greece or by Greek tutors in Rome
Find me one that wasnt tutored in Greek education and I'll give you a little gold star
Greek philosophies were the most popular ideologies in 2nd century Rome
>many of them despised Hellenistic trends
The conservatives despised Greek homosexuality and bestiality because they thought it was degenerate. They were not the majority of Rome, as many Romans were homosexual and fucked animals too.

..How is this a bad thing? Rome brought civilization, education, trade, literature, arts, ect. All of western civilization is built on the Romans blueprints, including our government.
The entire world went back hundreds of years technologically and intellectually when the western empire fell.
>orders are orders, no matter how morally wrong they are
Spoken like someone who knows absolutely nothing about history
Why do you think Caesar crossed the Rubicon? Why do you think there was a year of 4 emperors, and a year of 5 emperors?
>how are they different from how the germans were portrayed in 60s/70s war films?
Maybe you should stop getting your history from fucking hollywood, just a tip.
Many historians agree that to live in Rome from the rule of Nerva to Marcus Aurelius was the greatest period in history to be alive.
"If a man were called to fix the period in the history of the world, during which the condition of the human race was most happy and prosperous, he would, without hesitation, name that which elapsed from the death of Domitian to the accession of Commodus."
Your preconceptions about the Romans are fucking stupid
Also your understanding of what a Nazi is is also lacking
>>140884379
maybe you should pay attention, I said people KNEW as in that it was a general opinion people had in the past, and at no point did I ever say that was my idea of how Rome was, nor that I was against any of the things they did.
>>140884569
What past are you talking about? The Romans have always been highly respected throughout history
I mean we had a Renaissance for a reason yo
>>140884640
I'm talking about 1800s to early 1900s in America, you know, those films I mentioned? all of them were originally novels written during that period.
>>140884676
