If we look at religion then it’s a black and white my dude.

Rome survived another thousand years after Rome fell.

It survived up till 1453.

Constantinopolis is the crowning achievement of Christian Rome, it is the very beacon of Christian Europe’s accomplishment, power and prestige.

And now it’s still gone.

Built by the pagan Constantine, he is the first Roman emperor to covert to Christianity as in battle an angel showed him his symbol, the Chi Rho.

And now his city, is occupied.

How based

The Romans lasted from 753 BC - 1453 AD

Did you read my paragraph? I don't remember having it addressed

I did regarding the implementation of Christianity as the official religion.

Unless you’re exclusively talking about Western Rome.

I wouldn't count Byzantium

Byzantium is Rome, (Eastern) Rome.

It still is Rome by all counts and legality.

But (Western) Rome adopted Christianity in 380 AD. And it collapsed In 476 (or 480 depending on your historian).

Less than a century

Then you also have the “Kingdom of the Romans” or really just that one province named Soissons that was the official successor to western Rome, surviving up to 486.

That is if you wish to count Soissons as a piece of WRE due to legal purposes.

They aren't Romans

They're basically race traitors

Western Rome’s problems was that it couldn’t survive on its own? Plus it’s Senate was corrupt and too bureaucratic, which military strong men dictated policy. With a string of poor (and very young) Emperors, the WRE was doomed from the get go.

Turned away their roots for some desert teachings of a foot washing rabbi

Eastern Rome held all the cards economically, politically and had a more homogeneous population. As western Rome was inviting too many non-Latin and non-Gaulish/Celtic tribes who were escaping the Huns.

And these tribes wanted land in exchange they served Rome as auxiliaries. They basically became kingdoms within the empire, and when it got weak they broke off immediately.

But on the bright side Theodosious did stop another Roman civil war after the Tetrarchy thing, just cut the empire in half.

So in principle he got what he wanted.

I'm of Gaul stock

As well as Saxon and Welsh Celt

But looking at the empire; it was indeed too massive and with such a large frontier from Britain to Iraq they simply couldn’t afford to keep a military capable to defend the borders in their entirety, due to their constant political violence at home and lack of decisive action.

That’s why the late Roman legions are.. less Latinized.

I hate xtianity for what it did to my volk

Bro where do you think my stock is from, Jordan?

My pfp on discord is what I look like in real life, it’s a self portrait.

Tell me if it looks like a Semite to you.

You know what it looks like
