The desire to be the new Roman Empire has left our mark upon the whole wide world. We're at least Rome 2.0 by now.

I don't know about that. They had whole reenactments of sea battles in the Colosseum, while we have soccer.

I couldn't possibly stand for that. I'd only be picking a favorite and drugging all their opponents, and it wouldn't be fair! :(

Hell, the Russians (who consider themselves to be a bit of a Roman Empire themselves) have tank biathlons. Now that's how you do gladiatorial combat in the 21st century! Czar Putin commands it!

You're saying drugging the population isn't one of our priorities? Oh dear, we're going to need a new water source. And work! D:

Nothing wrong with drugging the population... but corrupt the noble gladiatorial games? It would be terrible... and yet I know I just wouldn't be able to help myself! The pretty ones must win!
