why do autists end up obsessed with rome but never the ottomans
>>220932586i think both are cool
>>220932586They not whyte
>>220932586The cool part of Rome was Italian Rome and it lost its aura with the Western collapseNo one cares about Eastern Rome either
>inferior aesthetics, mostly just stuff they hacked from their conquered people>obviously more useless sand in that empire whereas Rome constituted core European areas>Rome (and Latin) formed the basis of all European history thereafter whereas the Ottomans had a more dubiously positive impact on their region
>>220932586>why do autists end up obsessed with rome but never the ottomans
>>220932586conquering is more impressive when you start out completely surrounded by all of your future provinces.
>>220932586Because we're not Muslims?
>>220932586because westerners we wuzz as romans not as ottomans
>>220932780You're not Catholics either
>>220932658>mostly just stuff they hacked from their conquered peoplebut doesn't that apply to Rome too even their gods were greek
>>220932586Better screenplay: constant intrigues, civil wars, assassination plots, natural disasters, legions battling new enemies, legions battling other legions, slave revolts like with Spartacus, etc. Lots of cinematic stuff happening
>>220932586because they have nothing in common?do you think people obsess over rome solely for the lands they held?
>>220932658Ottoman aesthetic is pretty distinct from Rome desu
>>220933008True but it mostly apply to period from Punic wars to Five Good emperors reign. Things before and after are just boring and repetitive
>>220932586They're the same picture
>>220932986we aren't catholic either yet we speak a romance language paco

>>220934032I’m not roman
>>220934032>tf>tpBrownoids from the new world are the ones always larping as Romans.
>>220932586trust me you will have your ottoman phase once you read about the end of the roman empire
>>2209326862 more weeks and turkey will anschluss bosnia and Albania, then militarliy invade bulgaria o algo
>>220932586The ottomans are just too arab, I hate to say it but arabesque aesthetics are uncomfortable for us and completely foreign to european sensibilities.
literally no one cares about the byzantine empire
>Why don't you care about a Muslim empire that produced nothing?
