The Fasces is a faggot with a blade emerging
You kinky slut.
It symbolizes the magistrates power... Or something?
Fasces are the emblem which founded the power, authority and unity of
Imperial Rome. From the Rome of the past was derived the tradition of
civilisation and progress during the past two thousand years, of which the
America is now the chief custodian. The bundle of sticks
symbolises the strength of unity. Divided, they may be broken ; united,
they are invincible. The axe symbolises the supreme authority of the
organised State, to which every section and faction owes allegiance.
Fasces (/ˈfæsiːz/, (Italian: Fasci, Latin pronunciation: [ˈfa.skeːs], a plurale tantum, from the Latin word fascis, meaning "bundle")[1] is a bound bundle of wooden rods, sometimes including an axe with its blade emerging. The fasces had its origin in theEtruscan civilization, and was passed on toancient Rome, where it symbolized amagistrate's power and jurisdiction. The image has survived in the modern world as a representation of magisterial or collective power. The fasces frequently occurs as acharge in heraldry, it is present on an older design of the Mercury dime and behind the podium in the United States House of Representatives, it is used as the symbol of a number of Italian syndicalist groups, including the Unione Sindacale Italiana, and it was the origin of the name of the National Fascist Party in Italy (from which the term fascism is derived).
While the swastika – also a symbol with a long previous history – was deeply stigmatized by its association with Nazi Germany, the Fasces did not undergo a similar process because of association with Italian Fascism; its use remains acceptable in various legitimate contexts.
It should not be confused with the related term fess, which in French heraldry is called afasce.
It's all good lil nigga
@Thomas Ryan Ok, understood. I learn better when I write shit down.
Also, "The axe represented the power over life or death through the death penalty, while bundled birch twigs symbolise corporal punishment."
