    Weeeelll, I have learned that all of the Egyptians were touched by King Midas.
    I have learned that the Japanese were not the ones who invented ninjas.
    I have learned that the Gladiators were actually the front-line soldiers and the true legionaries of Rome.
    I have learned that chariot riding Amazons and huge elephants resided in modern-day Russia, my homeland.
    I have learned that the Roman Empire was forged in 50 years.
    I have learned that all soldiers in the Ancient World were cowards who routed in seconds
    I have learned that cavalry was more important and stronger in the Roman Army than the infantry.
    I have learned that the police and fire-fighting force of the city of Rome was the most elite and the best unit in the whole wide world.
    I have learned that the tiny weaklings called Seleucids invented the legionaries and lorica segmentata way before the Romans even came up with their Marian units.
    I have learned that the Goths appeared in Germania even before Rome conquered the Gauls and that the Germans had phalanxes wielding sarissas just like the Makedonians, who by the way stole the Spartan mascot.
