🏛️💀 Everyone loves the Roman Empire — until you actually have to live in it. Sure, the architecture was stunning and the togas looked comfy, but unless you were rich, you were probably sweating in a tenement, dodging diseases, or being yelled at in Latin by someone named Marcus. The streets smelled awful, the medicine didn’t work, and “retirement plan” usually meant dying in a public bath.
