ok just you wait

<:duhva:608723855460139153>

the roman empire is still here

@Cielodiluna di Bisanzio convert to orthodoxy

we are the THIRD ROME

NOW

No <:chad:399190347953209344>

also romanians have nothing to do with the byzantines

Larping as Ceasars get you nowhere @impertinence

JOHN CENAAAAAAAAAAA

especially without a king

@W A V E start speaking a slavic language NOW

@Fre1-sen care to extrapolate?

<:haHAA:320314457500811264>

>we are the THIRD ROME
no

yes

I haven't seen that word in a while

both rome and byzantium were at a point a pinnacle of civilisation

no one ever viewed russia as anything other than eastern uncultured barbarians ffs

also russia has never cared for the ancient traditions of rome so why even larp

russia is slavic in character not graeco-roman

@Fre1-sen we don't need a king tho, there are other conceptions like transferring of power, which come from byzantine times

Cant be a tsar without anyone holding the title

<:duhva:608723855460139153>

especially since the rurikids died out

do you understand that roman empire was technically a republic until the end?

like, emperor is not the king

<:duhva:608723855460139153>

Even if Russia had barely any claim to be the third Rome, that claim was obliterated by Lenin

hahahahAHAHAH this is you

"Procession of Virgins" <:haha2:607674493376397355>

senate existed until the end of it

Their claim came through marriages with the byzantine emperors

not thorugh the senate

<:duhva:608723855460139153>

>Their claim came through marriages with the byzantine emperors
and then anyone can make that claim

>he's making fun of biblical stories

whoever who married into the byzantine family

kek

if theyre alive yeah

which they arent
