Ancient History

So does that mean the Shaw is an assassin.

No no. That was hundreds of years ago. You can tell a modern-day assassin by the barcode on the back of their heads.

There were ups and downs, Justinian and Basil II restored the empire's credibility. It was Manzikert which marked the beginning of the end.

There are conflicting viewpoints on when the Roman Empire actually did begin to fall. What people dont realize is after the battle of Adrianople, Theodosius and Stilicho managed to contain the Goths to a point where up until Theodosius's death, they ceased to be a threat at all. During the reign of Theodosius and Stilicho, the Roman army was still the best it had ever been in its entire existence.

The roman empire started its decline when the great emperor Darth maul, fought Genghis khan in the skies above Tenochtitlan, It was then that the great Roman general, Gaius Manlius, called his X-Wing star fighters to bomb Tokyo with incendiary bombs with in turn birthed the samurai, and after Manlius's successful conquest of the Taiwanese he flew to Rome and stuck his thumb in a goats ass and the smell told him that the Emperor was in trouble. he then marched his Panzer columns through the Ardennes and destroyed the french communists in Prussia, and finally saved emperor Maul from the Gulags of eastern Russia.

How will America decline?

In a blaze of glorious hellfire!! and guess what, WERE BRING EUROPE DOWN WITH US!!!!

What does that have to do with Ancient History whatsoever?

Comparing America with the Roman Empire?

But...but...wha?

Hey every empire falls, its the logic of the Pessimist,

Pessimist =/= realist. Except the US is hardly an empire.

Meh, i have no opinion on the matter.

It won't

It will, eventually. Maybe not as harsh and spectacularly as the Roman Empire did, but it'll experience some decline.

Anyone who believes America will live forever is too optimistic and doesn't realize that empires rise and fall, anyone who believes it will collapse tomorrow is too pessimistic and an idiot. (and no China will not be next super power)

Until that time comes when America collapses it will rain supreme.

I guess I could say America is slowly declining the moment we speak, I'm not saying they will not be a superpower anymore, but if anything, they aren't as amazing as they were some 20-30 years ago.

If only Brazil had control of both sides of the South american continent and then they would be in a position to rule the world.

I already imagine, militias with FALs defeating the rest of the world.

Sooner or later... The Chinese government will get overthrown by an army of their own MADE IN CHINA action figures!

Their Made In China guns will implode themselves after the first use.
