Who was more significant to the early empire, Julius or Augustus?
I think Augustus was the one who actually founded the empire and Julius's true spiritual heir was Mark Antony. The reason Augustus founded the empire and it lasted so long was because he only ever accepted powers from the senate after defending it from the military dictator named Mark Antony, and it was only with a decent senate as well as a decent Caesar or Emperor that the Empire truly flourished.

Lets talk about der phoenicians, shall we?
Phoenicia were some of the original gold-smiths in the Mediterranean. They were all around hated by every society they came across for their under-handed tactics in trade (Compared to the more honest Greeks) and were accused of various things like child sacrifice by the Greeks, Romans and Hebrews.
After their homeland in the middle east was taken over by both Hebrews and Persians, they were basically cast out of their land and had to regroup in some other Mediterranean settlements, like Carthage.
Carthage was where they tried to get some power back from the West Mediterranean that they lost in the East, at which point Rome came around to fuck their baby-blood drinking assholes raw.
At this point everyone was so tired of their shit that the Roman Republic, which at that time had some Greek advisers already, decided it was time to burn their shit to the ground because of how fucking violent and shekel-bergy they were.
So the Mediteranian was a pretty decent place after that, no real major wars until the battle between Mark Antony and Augustus.

St. Constantine the Great (Opinion of Sainthood in Catholicism and actually venerated by Byzantine Catholics and monarchists, cannonised by Orthodox Church)
St. Theodosius the Great (Opinion of Sainthood)
St. Justinian the Great (Opinion of Sainthood in Catholicism, actually cannonised by Orthodox Church) alongside St. Theodora (cannonised by Orthodox Church)
St. Irene (Opinion of Sainthood in Orthodoxy, ended the iconoclasm heresy)
St. Constantine XI (Opinion of Sainthood in Orthodoxy, died as a martyr)

It's kind of funny how Constantine was both Saint in Christianity and acknowledged as God-Emperor by the Pagan Roman faith.

My sword seethes with rage at the impotence of my Barb brethren in wiping you from Epona's fair earth once and for all.
I see my brethren have recently sacked your festering capital, in imitation of our most honoured ancestor Brennus. But why have we not pressed on to eliminate you entirely from Italia, and established our own free civilization over the destroyed remains of your decadent cities? Come, brethren of Gaul, charioteers of Britain, warriors of far Dacia and Scythia! I shall even permit a few of you Teutonic pirates and bandits to have some of the spoils of our conquest, so long as you keep away from our camp women!

I am unsure how many Roman pagans are on this board, but I hope it will grab the attention of some
ATTENTION PAGANS
During a debate with some Christ-tards, I came to a conclusion. Pagans, as much as we all may love our lore, our beliefs and our ways and we want more than anything to revive these, are not very well organized. This is the one thing that Christianity has always had against us. They have a church, we have small and disparate tribal religions. They have a pope, we have decentralized priests. They have most of the world, we have hardly anything anymore.
This was a problem for the Pagans of the Ancient world, not just us. Their religions were often weakly organized and changed on regional differences, which made it easier for the Church to convert one tribe, then the next, then the next…
If we want to prevent this and grow as a strong culture, we must change and adapt. We must become centralized and organized if we want to be a strong opposition to Christianity, Islam and Judaism, all of which have a strongly organized faith. We should have a central leader or a council that controls our goal and direction. A big problem I've noticed with Paganism is that political groups tend to come in and make it about whatever the fuck they want. Just take a gander at Wiccans or Tumblr Heathens and you will know exactly what I am talking about. We need to establish a community that tells those people to fuck off while setting up a guideline on what our motives are, what we strive to accomplish and why we should be heard.
I propose that we use the Hellenistic model of religious organization to accomplish this. This isn't because of any ethnic preference, I myself am a Germanic Pagan, but I realize that the tribes of my people were never well organized. The Hellenic model, of which the Roman Catholic church is heavily based off of, is the best opportunity to unite the Pagan religions together into a singular entity. This does not mean syncretisim or eclectic Paganism like Wiccans graviate towards. Each region would have a their specific pantheon and traditions to cling to, but all would have seats in the council and would obey the supreme leader of our "Church". This doesnt mean the Hellens would have power over the rest of us, just that their model of religious organization will be used for all of us.
Paganism has already grown among a few fringe groups of people, but if we are to continue growing into the mainstream and retain the power we attain, we must become organized. We must follow the model of organization that has been used by our enemies to succeed.
A rock will eventually wither away, but water will change to circumstances and always defeat the rock.

If Roma was reborn in it's peak state again in the modern world, what government form do you reckon she'd be? Empire or Republic? Or would she adopt a more contemporary style? Thoughts?
Personally, I believe it would be a very autonomous, federalist Republic. It's the only way I could see Rome maintaining all of Europe under control, by splitting her into provinces to be managed by the locals. Of course Rome would remain the seat of all true power, with authority to overrule any local decisions if it was believed to be harmful to the Republic as a whole. So in other words, it would similar to the US.

>mfw frenchfags surrender all the time
>mfw germans are warlike and always picking on the frenchfags
>mfw germans always laughing at how short the italians are
but the most impressive thing is their engineering feats. At the very end of Book III the Morini decide to hid in a forest like elfs or some shit. When caeser sends men in they hide in the trees.
So he cuts down the forest, 'in a few days'.
This after he defeated their navy in the ocean, having never sailed in an ocean before, and without any ocean-worthy ships.
From later accounts I get the idea that the constant imperial wars and the advantage that gave to the upper class impoverished the middle class and ultimately lead to rome's distruction. Parallels to modern politics?
