I think about the collapse quite a bit. Too much foreign expansion on what was the greatest empire the world had ever seen and then gets sacked by the barbarians without so much as a sword being swung.

Holy Roman Empire


According to Voltaire… it was neither Holy, Roman, or an Empire.

Ah, what do you think of Teutoburg? Where did he go wrong?


I assume you are referring to the Battle of Teutoburg Forest.I normally call it the Varian Disaster. The alliance of Germanic tribes was able to defeat the Romans who were led by Publius Quinctilus Varus. His worst error, in my opinion, was the failure to to do any reconnaissance. As a result, the Roman army walked into an ambush.

I like to think about what would have happened if the Aztecs, Incas and Mayans had a big dodgeball competition but I assume I'm not the only one.

That's uncivilized. Now dodgeball. That's a refined game.

My wife called me from work yesterday to ask me, we started talking about something else as soon as I answered and I didn't think to ask why until I saw this thread.

In all seriousness they should start learning to speak Spanish if they know whats good for them.


I think it is mandatory now in school, not like they are taught Latin or French these days.
