Modern Caesar

Rome fell when nobles stopped reading about their ancestors. Here are 7 biographies every man must read to avoid same fate: - Life of Sulla by Plutarch - Da Vinci by Walter Isaacson - Napoleon by Andrew Roberts - Augustus by Adrian Goldsworthy - The Confessions of St. Augustine - Alexander the Great by Philip Freeman - Morgan: American Financier by Jean Strouse What else would you add?

How do you survive a Great Decline? In third century Roman Empire almost collapsed. The many Civil Wars, barbarian invasions and economic instability put so much pressure on already declining state that was on verge of collapse. But when everything was on fire and hope seemed to be lost luck returned to Roman side in the form of competent leaders. Emperor Aurelian set on campaign to restore Empire from the traitors that carved their own kingdoms amid the crisis. He capture Queen Zenobia in the East and without a long campaign regained Gaul. Aurelian went even further and restored Roman monetary system. In few years, Empire went from immediate collapse to a stable force that dominated the world. In tomorrow's article we will discuss how to survive a Great Decline, how Aurelian restored the world and what lessons can we adapt in modern times. The article will be available for all paid subscribers on The Modern Caesar newsletter. (Link in bio)

"No friend ever served me, and no enemy ever wronged me, whom I have not repaid in full." - Lucius Cornelius Sulla

A great list of account to follow. Especially if you want to learn something new on X, not just feel entertained.

@StrengthNPurpos It gave way more than 200 years.

@ModernCeasar Imagine single-handedly giving your civilization another ~200 years. Great man

@gubbastronaut @creation247 That is true. You pay for it with taxes, but its way worse in quality than in US. Free health care is a lie.

@ModernCeasar @creation247 There's exactly no free healthcare anywhere in Europe.

The European mind cannot comprehend:

@Alexis_of_Hales Absolutely

@ModernCeasar Boss Mode.

@StrengthNPurpos I actually never visited one. Maybe should start prioritizing them more often.

It’s a great day to shop your local market.

@JeremyRyanSlate @HeraldOfRome Some call him the most based man in Rome.

@ModernCeasar @HeraldOfRome Sulla was based. One testicle and all.

@TheRose556 @ZerkBerk0 @creation247 There are not enough specialists to solve these problems.

@ModernCeasar @ZerkBerk0 @creation247 Since they've made those decisions, public hospitals should address all the shortcomings instead of making patients wait and slowly die

@ZerkBerk0 @TheRose556 @creation247 In Lithuania there were many cases where elderly died from waiting in lines. You have to go to private doctors and pay money if you want to actually get yourself fixed. Public hospitals are crap.

@TheRose556 @ModernCeasar @creation247 Yeah and many European countries are the same, at least Scandinavia (idk about Finland tbh) Denmark, the Netherlands…

@JoshuaLisec Even the ones like in Britain?

I love intercultural exchange!

@TodayinHistory What doesn't kill us, makes us stronger.

@ModernCeasar Had been a long road of persecution

Today in 313 AD, religious tolerance for Christians was granted across the Roman Empire when Constantine the Great signed the Edict of Milan.

@creation247 Does America even know what a real Football is?

Will America win the World Cup?

@TimelessTrvlr That whole region is very underrated. There are many mountains and old churches that make whole are something unique.

Georgia might be the most overlooked country on Earth. Wine older than Rome. Mountains that rival the Alps. Monasteries carved into cliffs. Yet most travelers still skip it. These 14 places will make you wonder how Georgia stayed a secret for this long.....🧵

@athenaeumbc These numbers are scary. What's even worse is that these same people with lost attention spans get to vote or run for offices.

A Berkeley history professor says he’s cut assigned reading from 100 pages a week to just 35. Another said that a course which once required students to read seven full books now consists entirely of excerpts. “We are now reaching a crisis point where if the number of pages goes down further, it’s unclear to me whether my discipline of history can really be taught.” The attention span crisis is a civilization crisis.
