In the year 42 AD, Emperor Claudius was overthrown in a bloody coup, and a wise and just Felix the Feline ascended to the throne. For centuries, felines ruled over the Roman Empire with an iron paw.
Under the wise leadership of Emperor Felix, Rome's architecture was remade to include cat towers and scratching posts, the army was reorganized into a feline legion, and the economy was rebooted to prioritize catnip and tuna sales.
But it was not all sunshine and purrs. A rival feline dynasty, the Sly Crusaders, threatened the empire's stability, leading to a series of bloody wars that ravaged the land.
Today, the Roman Feline Empire is a beacon of hope and freedom for all felines, a place where whiskers are long and proud, and the sound of purring is the national anthem.
