Et Tu, Brute?: 40+ Roman Empire Memes for Sandal-Clad, Toga-Wearing History Buffs
How often do you think about the Roman Empire? Well, if you looked around you, there's thousands of daily reminders that can make us think about our biblically accurate ancestors of a time way passed. Take that salad in your fridge– caesar salad –that could give anyone some legion-conquering flashbacks. What about those flip flops hiding in the back of your closet? Those are a distant relative of wrap-around gladiator sandals. And perhaps the sinister betrayal of your Karenish coworker, eating your lunch behind your back, when you were really craving the leftover turkey sub from yesterday. Et tu, Brute?
Although it's a far cry from the toga parties you went to in college, the Roman empire shaped a lot of the modern world. We may not have the same tiny Italian town that spread across thousands of miles of territory taking on every neighboring enemy, but we do have marble statues, roundabouts, and margarita pizza– and that's a world worth living in. So for those of you who are true history buffs who think about the Romans every now and then, these historical memes are for you. Scroll onward to take a trip down gladiator lane with these history memes of the Roman era.
