RE: Emperors, Caesar`s, you know what I mean Ah, the Roman Emperor, just how do you play someone so powerful in World history? You either had to play it with elegance, yet have a ruthless dominant respectability about you, or conversely, be a tyrannical nut-case! Not sure if this has been a threaded here before,? but I`ve not seen one like it in my time here so thought I might put it out...

In almost all the paintings of the Holy Roman Emperors from Charles I to Francis II, you see them holding a cross like symbol in their hands. It's in the shape of a sphere with a cross on top. What does this symbol mean and represent?

When Vader goes to the Emperors room on the Death Star and they discuss troop movements and the Emperor tells him to go to the command ship and await his orders then he turns around and there are 2 men there with weird outfits. When he turns around they bow to each other. Who the hell are those guys?!

At first, the government could raise additional revenue from the sale of state property. Later, more unscrupulous emperors like Domitian (81-96 A.D.) would use trumped-up charges to confiscate the assets of the wealthy. They would also invent excuses to demand tribute from the provinces and the wealthy. Such tribute, called the aurum corinarium, was nominally voluntary and paid in gold to ...

Thanksgiving and now xmas. I'm putting Ingersoll on my must read list. http://www.cynical-c.com/?p=12448 If I had the power to produce exactly what I want for next Christmas, I would have all the kings and emperors resign and allow the people to govern themselves. I would have all the nobility crop their titles and give their lands back to the people. ...

All was not perfect, however. Emperors held absolute authority. This worked well with good emperors, but incompetent ones could do great harm. The rules for succession to the throne were never clear, and debilitating civil wars often resulted. The bureaucracy that managed the empire on a daily basis grew more corrupt, increasing the dissatisfaction of the common citizen. The wealth of the ...

The History of New Year's Resolutions The tradition of the New Year's Resolutions goes all the way back to 153 B.C. Janus, a mythical king of early ...

I don't know what you all are on about this medieval cookery stuff (actually, it's quite interesting, but play along). I have discovered in my searches of the internet that it's all fiction. There never were any such Middle Ages. In fact, Quote: We shall cite a multitude of evidence which testifies that all “ancient” manuscripts are literary works of the 15th and...
