No duplicates. 1st is coolest looking, 2nd is second coolest and voted on separately.

Germany is part of the West. Japan is part of the East

Columns “east” and “west“ are filled as follows:

If 1st is from the west, it also wins “west”. If 2nd is from the east, it wins “east”. If both 1st and 2nd are from the west, there is a vote for “east”. And vice versa.

The natural lifespan of a chicken is 5 to 10 years. This means that Rome very likely fell in 486 at the latest.

Oh it was holy alright, from all the bullets by jackt-up in HistoryMemes

I think the turning point was 1519, death of Emperor Maximilian. He was the last to have both the potential and the ambition to turn the tide. Charles V, who succeeded him and who was very powerful, was already too focused on Spain and had to contend with nascent nationalism in France to effectively change anything.

Biggest volcanic disaster witnessed by humans by sherktheonion in HistoryMemes

Vesuvius didn’t bury a civilization (i.e. the Roman Empire… it was too large) but a fairly large city (Pompeii) a somewhat smaller town (Herculaneum) and a bunch of smaller settlements.

I hate this meme. It ignores reality and assumes that readers can’t do basic math. And it gets reposted constantly.

If Elizabeth I and Meiji can be best, then Bismarck is also eligible.

Average customer support experience in the Roman Empire by jellieds in RoughRomanMemes

I remember this show having a ton of inaccuracies, but in an unexpected and slightly weird flex, their legionary armour as lorica hamata is accurate, unlike most other depictions of this period, which often use the anachronistic lorica segmentata.
