If the Romans had Facebook

[The Black Douglas]

they would have conquered nowhere, they would have all sat around gettng fat eating dormouse and posting insignificant nonsense about the latest celeb gladiator or prostitute.

[HoreTore]

Are you kidding me?

Rome wouldn't just have conquered, they would have razed everything. Imagine how pissed Julius Caesar would've been if Vercingetorix unfriended him!

[Husar]

They didn't need Facebook to become fat, lazy and lose to a bunch of unwashed barbarians.

Which also proves that not washing yourself is a superior lifestyle.

EXCUSE me - those "barbarians" invented soap!

EXCUSE me - those "barbarians" invented soap!

But why did they not use it then? If they had had Facebook, they could have shared the soap with others.

Raiding party?

If I was Roman, I'd organize orgies. Just to honour Bacchus, of course.

Soap invented by Semitic peoples not European barbarians.

[Fisherking]

Yes but they seem to have forgotten about it.

The Romans got it from the Gauls, along with quite a lot of their other technologies.


If the Romans had facebook we might be ruled by Aztecs.

A bit of googling suggests that the first known makers of soap were the Babylonians. However, the ingredients would be readily available to pretty much any culture that could kill animals and burn wood. For all we know, the first bar of soap may have been clutched in the hand of a bathing Neanderthal.

[Brandy Blue]

Oh yeah. I think it would have been cooler if the Romans had motorcycles. :rtwyes:
