>Was one of the greatest Empires on Earth
That's like saying that Turkey was Byzantium.

didnt they also dump nuclear waste in their waters or some shit?

Unironically the church
It blocked any reunification attempt for centuries
Venice was close to unify it but the pope called the fucking french
Sigh

Rare

that's literally the opposite of what happened. They got KRAUT'ed by the goths and then the goths pretended to be MUH KEISER TSAR NEW ROME for 1500 years until monarchies stopped being cool

this guy gets it

the church was the only remnant that united everything the way it used to. uniting under the Doge or anything other than the Pope wouldn't have been a restoration, it would have been something new –personalized autocracy, a throwback to red boots in 500bc.

which is fine, but not a "reunification"

>they didnt get blacked they got krau-

Italians are just pretending to be humble pizza merchants to make the world let it's guard down. Italy is doing everything it can to ensure that it weather's the storm of western civilizational collapse. Once all the surrounding countries have collapsed and America Bulkanized, Salvini will stand atop the Alps and release a bellowing screech, this will awaken the Roman spirit that has laid dormant in the Italian man. The Roman's will crushed the world beneath the tramp of their march once more, and all will be well.

Unification fucked up italy, especially the south.

Christianity happened...

We jewed ourselves thinking that unifying our religion would solve the norf problem... But you can't teach barbarians how to behave.

fine, they got TURK'd like 600 years after getting KRAUT'ed

what's your point
