Yes - If you would like to discuss this further feel free to PM me...
Regarding the name, it is no secret. Basically when I joined the forum I wanted a proper Roman name, with the three nomina, and since I am awful at decision-making I fell back on my favourite character in Colleen McCollough's series of books. As an excuse, this was before I started my Ancient History major - I was aware that I was misinformed. However, his ploy of demanding that either both Caesar and Pompeius, or neither, be stripped of their commands endeared him to me. Moreover, who better to represent the complex nature of Late Republican politics than Curio?

it is also the capital of Doom! :clown: (I'm sure one guy knows who I refer to)
it is also the land of Tintin, Alix, and a variety of other cartoons and comics from my childhood. It is only natural it should also have ancient history as a good place of study.
