If you lived in the Roman empire, which province would you choose?
>>18440373Probably Egypt because it was wealthy and comfy.
Africa, it was the empire’s bible belt
>>18440385In what way?
>>18440373Gallia or Illyria. Somewhere with good climate and scarce density of people.
>>18440389All the fringe, schizophrenic hardliner sects came from there
>>18440373Britannia. Defect to my Celtics queen and training her army with Roman military knowledge.
>>18440373Iberia. Not a lot happens there and I could live a peaceful life in the mountains.
>>18440373>which province would you choose?Everywhere sucks if you're not a landowner, so I am going to assume we're discussing a world where I own enough land to live off. Not necessarily a latifundia, but since this is my fantasy I will say a latifundia.The three greatest provinces to live in throughout the Roman Empire's existence were Illyria, Italia (more specifically, Magna Graecia) and Iberia. The three Is. If I wanted a comfy and casual existence I would choose to live in Iberia, but since I want my steady supply of slaves I would say Magna Graecia.
Greece, and invest in byzantum and make a palace with my name,to troll future historians.
Asia. It's where I'm from.
>>18440373Macedonia, like any reasonable Slav.
>>18440373why?
>>18440489You mean Paeonia and part of northern Macedonia?
>>18440492He's planing to send us to rome with his time machine, duh.
>>18440373Achaea would be cool
>>18440373What time period?
>>18440498The start of Hadrian's reign, 117 AD. You know things are going to get bad in 200 years but you've got some time.
HISPANIA CITERIOR TARRACONENSIS.
>>18440501Gallia Narbonensis then.
>>18440373If I’m a slave anywhere as long as there aren’t any mines.
>>18441599If I’m wealthy I would pick Egypt
>>18440373I would be comfy in Lusitania, a nice little fishing village.
>>18440421It does seem like the best option. All you gotta worry about is Galba chimping out toward the end of the 1st century, but if you were born early in Augustus' reign you probably wouldn't even live that long anyway. It's a wealthy province, though not as luxurious and decadent as the eastern ones. But for all that, it's a lot quieter and more peaceful.
