Do you think the rest of the world looked at ancient Rome the same way they look at the US today?
>>57889221
No, because most tribes and other nations were too far away to care, and it was too difficult and not in any way worthwhile or profitable to invade them.
Rome reached critical mass, and could not annex or impose it's will Persia, or the Germanic and Balto-Slavic tribes. Not to mention India and especially that far away superpower, China.
America on the other hand has the world by it's balls.
>>57889221
no, i don't think romans were considered fat and stupid
>>57889221
Kek no
>>57889221
No. Romans were good but no that good. It's just that Europeans were so shit back then Romans are considered a success
>>57889674
>Turks were nomads in an underdeveloped region with not even a single city
>Rome was shit
Rome lasted over 2000 years while America hasn't even reached 300 yet
>>57890654
That has no bearing on the question which is clearly juxtaposing modern day America with the height of Rome.
>>57889882
I wasnt comparing them to Turks but there was a lot more advanced civilizations in the east
With laughter?
>>57891120
Jews are faggots. Literally no one cares what you have to say.
>>57891381
Sorry, but you had your chance and blew it.
>>57891278
Americans are fat stupid shits. Literally no one cares what you have to say.
>>57891488
Ha! Everyone is jealous of us and relies on us do to everything.
Don't worry, shlomo, I won't take it to heart. You'll get money to buy weapons. Don't fret.
>Pax Americana
>Pax
Thats a good joke nigger. All we got from murrica are wars.
>>57891554
>go outside

>go see a movie
>get shot
>call the cops
>get shot
Ah yes very impressive
rome ruled a bit longer while america is still relatively new on the scene
while roman culture spread slowly even after its death, american culture spread rapidly changing itself and the world that is most connected to it
militarily while america has more duties and responsibilities to its allies all of the cost is borne by the people some of it is offset by replacing some country's rulers doe
rome did this but not as frequently but they were able to gain land and people as an ever expanding sovereignty
if america did it like they did in the cold war for another 200 years maybe it would be comparable but it is not the cold war anymore
>>57891668
Huh? Why does everyone look at American blacks as an example. No one gives a shit about niggers. Here in my white Long Island community the crime rate is down 341% and the last murder was 15 years ago.
How are the balistinians treating you?
>>57891632
Implying any other pax was peaceful.
>>57891463
>mfw americans think they can relate to Rome
ancient Rome was hated and attacked for its riches all the time
America is more like Carthage, greedy shits with long lost identity and mixed ppl trying to do "business" (read: diplomatic bully for money)
>>57891812
>mfw I'm a quarter Italian
...and Irish, and Cherokee, and German.
Anyway, I can relate to Rome, faggot.
>mfw Italy is swarming with illegal Senegalese and Moroccans
>>57891767
>only blacks get shot
meme
A mass shooting in America is just a matter of time
http://timelines.latimes.com/deadliest-shooting-rampages/
>>57892007
>there's no gun violence anywhere else
Meme
A mass stabbing of Israeli faggots is just a matter of time.
>>57889221
No. They had respect for Rome.
>>57892089
Murder rates in America are higher than Israel's..
but hey keep telling yourself that you fat shit
>>57891632
I mean, its not like the Pax Romana was very peaceful either.
>>57892178
Yes, but who's doing the murdering? Who is the murdered?
>fat
Meme. I'm underweight.
>>57890654
>Rome lasted over 2000 years
>>57889221
WE WUZ ROME AN SHIIIEEET
>>57891779
Pretty much this. Greater peace is usually ensured by small wars, interventions before things escalate, shows of force, quelling rebellions early, etc. Humans are incapable of being completely peaceful.
>>57891992
> I'm a quarter Italian
you should learn a quarter of our language, kek
>americans
>>57892310
Americans killing Americans, of course.
Why do you need to be explained this? isn't shootings your national pastime?
>>57889221
Absolutely not. We can say that ancient Rome is hidden in countries like Italy, Spain, France, Germanh, Austria and Switzerland nowadays.
>>57892375
Uèèè! Cumpà!
Che cazzo vuoi che dica?
Admittedly my Italian is out of practice. But my Latin is good.
>>57892178
maybe because we have 40 times your population faggot
>>57892375
He's fucking with you dipshit. Muh Heritage is Euro-Bait.
>>57892389
>one disturbed individual
>America is full of shootings
Nah. Careful, shlomo. I know your ass is still buzzing from your last pounding but it will be buzzing more when the rabbi comes to stabby town.
>>57891668
This is coming from a country that regularly contends with suicide bombers and missile attacks.
>>57892512
>Terrone-american
disgusting
anyway USA is nowhere near Rome or Italy
>>57892497
>We can say that ancient Rome is hidden in countries like Italy, Spain, France, Germanh, Austria and Switzerland nowadays.
>Germany, Austria
Jesus Christ England has more in common with Rome than those two.
>>57892537
>not knowing what "rate" means
>>57892657
>anyway USA is nowhere near Rome or Italy
Italy top fucking KEK most of your country hasn't been internationally relevant since Rome fell. Not to mention your country is younger than ours.
>>57892657
Nothing wrong with being a terrone, my polentoni friend.
Napule è 'o paese d''o sole. Napule è 'na carta sporca e nisciun' se nmporta.
>>57892758
>china is relevant
>china is like rome
begone you fatty burger
>>57891668
pot, meet kettle
>>57891632
What was the last war Germany was involved in? Oh right, the one where they invaded half of Europe and started a federal genocide program. Who started that again?
>>57889560
They were considered puny manlets instead
>>57892158
>Brazilian education
>All these delusional Eurofags ITT denying the obvious comparisons
Wew
>>57890654
So you're saying we've only just begun to conquer you all.
>>57892349
Is it "peace" if it is held together by nuclear weapons and MAD?
>>57889221
Too early to tell
>>57892178
>>57891668
What's supposed to be so horrible about this images? Except the fatsos in the wheelchair of course.
Am I bluepilled too hard or does this guy have nothing?
>>57892918
>>china is relevant
>>china is like rome
Implying that means Italy is powerful you dumb greasy wop.
>>57895911
Yes. Peace is peace. One could argue more peaceful than Rome as it was at war not only with barbarians but with the Parthian Empire.
