Why Are So Many Men Obsessed with the Roman Empire?

roman empire is interesting because it almost seems like they could have done the industrial revolution more than a thousand years earlier than it happened irl

Edit: other interesting ones like this are Song dynasty in China, and Islamic golden age in Baghdad. probably women are interested in all these ones too so idk about the sexist part

Misleading title

"Why Are So Many Boyfriends and Husbands of Women On TikTok Obsessed with the Roman Empire?"

As if people who do not use TikTok are nonexistent. Truth is, they may be the majority and possibly the most sane people left on Earth.

I mean, what have you done with your life? What have you accomplished!? Alexander the Great conquered the known world before he was 30. What have you made? A million dollars? Psh.

I feel like this was a meme that has been blown way out of proportion. Like something 4chan would undertake.

As we learned from Phil Dick, the Roman Empire never ended.
