proof that rome was as evil as nazis with its toxic musculinity

Not like the Gauls did not try the same thing on more than one occasion.

That was the world back then, the Romans were just better at it.

Stop romansplaining!

The Gauls **did** raid Rome many times before that

it was just a bit oversized retaliation

Toxic musculature

The ideal female body

Javelin-Chan?

Or that thing holding her?

The launcher is an essential **part** of the female body

To be fair, she’s a fucking ice wizard

Rome literally adopted aggressive foreign policy because of the Gauls

Brennus and the Senones tribe of the Gauls sacked Rome fairly early into the Republic. He demanded the Romans pay a certain weight in gold for them to leave. When the Romans discovered the scales were unfairly weighted, they protested to Brennus.

Brennus drew his sword, proclaimed "Woe to the vanquished." (Vae victis) and tossed his sword on the scales.

Then Marcus Furius Camillus arrived from exile with the rallied army of Rome following its defeat, in turn proclaimed "Not with gold, but with iron, is the fatherland regained." and defeated Brennus in battle.

By then, Rome had the message.

Conquer or be conquered.

Rome's proper expansionism was pretty late into their history actually.

Italy was not fully consolidated until about 89 BC.

Because they kept getting DLCs

Iberia was only acquired after the Second Punic War.

Expansions east were facilitated by the Macedonian Wars.

North Africa only taken after the Third Punic War.
