Temple of Hercules, at the site of the Forum Boarium, the cattle market of ancient Rome. Hercules drove the Cattle of Geryon through here\. The temple dates back to the Roman Republic in the 1st century BC. It's a calming site in this crazy city, in our crazy era. #Rome #Hercules #RomanRepublic

That is the acrylics done on the first set of Leves for my Republican Roman warband for SAGA: Age of Hannibal.

#JuliusCaesar was the last dictator of the #RomanRepublic (not an emperor), and his heavy-handed rule and #populist politics got him assassinated on the #IdesOfMarch, #ThisDayInHistory in 44 BCE. Please note that economic justice can be pursued without empowering tyrants & kings.

And when all is said and done will it ever be the same again?

The Roman test consul has been up to more shady business with the shading pass over the base.

Rome’s Latifundia and the Collapse of the Citizen-Farmer How Roman land consolidation destroyed small farmers, reshaped citizenship, and hollowed out the Republic from within.

Rome’s crisis began in the countryside. 🌾

Latifundia expanded. Small farmers vanished. Land concentrated in elite hands.

When ownership narrows, republics strain.

The fall of the citizen farmer reshaped Rome’s destiny.

Where does the phrase LINGUISTA SUM. LINGUISTICI NIHIL A ME ALIENUM PUTO come from?
Jakobson paraphrased #Terentius (Publius Terentius Afer), Carthaginian author of #Comedies who lived during the #RomanRepublic (5th-1st BCE) and to whom this is attributed: HOMO SUM. HUMANI NIHIL A ME ALIENUM PUTO. ⬇️

How the Roman Republic Lost Democracy Without Ending Elections Rome kept elections while hollowing out democracy. How centralized control replaced popular sovereignty without abolishing the vote.

Rome kept its elections.

What it lost was choice.

The Republic collapsed when control replaced competition — not when voting ended. 🗳️⚠️

History is very clear about this pattern.

I got a finalising pigment coat done on the Roman test model, just a clean coat of paint on the rim of the base left and then it is done.

The Lex Valeria of 82 BCE legally appointed Lucius Cornelius Sulla as dictator during Rome’s civil war crisis. Proposed by Lucius Valerius Flaccus, it granted Sulla unlimited authority to reform the state.

Why Charisma Failed to Save the Roman Republic How Roman strongmen kept loyal crowds but lost power when elites and undecided blocs withdrew support in the final collapse of the Republic.

Popularity without power is a dead end. 🏛️

The late Roman Republic shows how mass support means little when institutions no longer function — and how collapse follows political isolation.

I got a couple of highlights done on the Roman test model.

The #RomanEmpire did not start out as a monarchy. The ##RomanRepublic grew too large and corrupt, dependent on the military, so a gradual military dictatorship emerged. On #ThisDayInHistory in 27 BCE, Caesar's heir Octavian was styled #Augustus by the Senate, giving a start date.

I got a shading pass done on this Roman test model.

The opening line of Cicero's 1st Catilinarian speech, which was given in front of the Roman Senate. In this speech, Cicero accused Lucius Sergius Catilina of plotting to overthrow the Roman republic for his own personal gain.
