  1. I don't like the idea of Caeser destroying the Republic,

    yet if he would have marched on Rome I would have been one of the idiots to wave my hands in the air and shout in the streets of Rome,

     

    "Hail Caeser" because I am a fallower of great men. So I would support the Republic yet I would be on Caeser's side lol.

     

    So I put not sure.

  2. I think I would have been Celt back in the day, just because I am fiercly loyal to my family name. I believe that the Romans were so miltiristic because they were called on by the state, it was basically a draft and people went along with it because you got paid. The Romans were like anyone in America today, greedy for money so they will do anything for money.

    I think Roman motivation to go to war was because they HAD to and they wanted the MONEY.

  3. Televangelist

    You are 42% Rational, 85% Extroverted, 0% Brutal, and 85% Arrogant.

    As the Lord as my witness, I swear upon the good book that you are indeed the TELEVANGELIST! Characterized by extreme arrogance, self-assurance, and extroversion, you would make a very charismatic leader (or a very despotic one). On top of that, you are also more intuitive than rational, predisposing you to a more spiritual or emotional outlook on life. Thus, you are thoroughly irrational. You also tend to be rather gentle and considerate of others' feelings. Clearly, you would make the perfect televangelist. Emotional, extroverted, arrogant, and gentle, you annoy the hell out of people who have to listen to the feel-good, intuitive ***** spewing from your mouth. Not only that, but people may look down on you as a self-centered asshat. So while you are gentle and genuinely care about others, it is quite clear that you still care about yourself MORE. Why is your personality flawed? Because you are too damned extroverted, emotional, and arrogant. So preach your irrational message, brotha-man! I assure you, no one will be listening!

     

    To put it less negatively:

     

    1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.

     

    2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.

     

    3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

     

    4. You are more ARROGANT than humble.

     

     

    Compatibility:

     

    Your exact opposite is the Spiteful Loner.

     

    Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Hippie, the Starving Artist and the Robot.

  4. Ovid was my favorite....

     

    Now stands my task accomplished, such as not the wrath of Jove, nor fire, nor sword, now the devoring ages can destroy.

    Let when it will the day that lay no claim but to my mortal body end the span of my uncertain years.

    Yet all be born again, the finer part of me, abouve the stars, imortal, and my name shall never die. Whether through lands beneth her sway, the might of Rome extends....my words shall be upon the lips of men.

    If truth be esabalished by poetic prophecy my name shall live for all eternity.

     

    -Ovid's last line in his book Metamorphoses.

  5. Well yes with the defeat of its only serious rival Carthage, Rome gained control of the bread basket in Africa and all of the Carthgian holdings of Spain.

     

    The Punic Wars was such a cololasol event of the time that even today were talk about it as the turning point of Roman History!
