The Roman state is still around (Turkiye)

[-] huf@hexbear.net 4 points 5 months ago

lol no, the real successor is finland

[-] edge@hexbear.net 4 points 5 months ago

Nah, that’s based entirely on “communism bad”. If we take the Russian Empire to be the successor (as a joke ofc), then its successor would be the Soviet Union, whose primary successor is the Russian Federation.

Basically, Stalin was the Roman emperor and now Putin is.

[-] huf@hexbear.net 2 points 5 months ago

yes, but all discussions of the roman empire's succession must be conducted under the banner of "communism bad", even by communists. otherwise it's just absolutely silly :D

[-] edge@hexbear.net 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

It is indeed silly. It got silly when the Russian Empire claimed to be the "Third Rome".

Also to get sillier, Kazakhstan was the last to officially leave the Soviet Union, making them the proper successor actually.

Rome is still around (it is Serbia)

The Roman Empire ended with the October Revolution.

The Ottomans were a dynasty that ruled the Roman empire.

Independence from Great Britain:
• Declaration July 4, 1776
• Confederation March 1, 1781
• Recognized September 3, 1783
• Constitution June 21, 1788

where do they get 2024 - 246 = 1778 from?

Um sweaty I think you’re missing the big picture here, America is over in 2026. Poggers, death to America

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 17 points 5 months ago

That stat is basically made up but I hope so

unfortunately due to pareto/lindy, while the empire still lives you can expect it to last as many years into the future as it has been around so far
