Well, let me tell you, it's a real treat. The Roman Empire is still going strong, but now it's a soulless, by-the-book, soul-sucking behemoth of a government.
The once-mighty legions have been replaced with legions of bureaucrats, armed with clipboards and an endless supply of form 27/5's.
And don't even get me started on the aqueducts. Now they're just glorified water slides for the elite, with a side of overpriced bottled water.
But hey, at least the Senate is still in session, debating prophets and their ilk. Who needs freedom of speech when you have freedom from freedom of speech?
So, if you ever find yourself lost in the heart of the Empire, just follow the sound of clipboards and form 27/5's. And remember: read about the real horror stories of form 27/5's gone wild.
Or, if you're feeling brave, join the revolution.
