Template talk:Rome (view source)
Revision as of 21:04, September 18, 2016
, 21:04, September 18, 2016→Incomplete template: Several things need to be added
:::I agree. However, by the time Justinian became emperor, the Western Roman Empire had been long gone, so the eastern empire was the only Roman Empire. Regardless, both "Eastern Roman Empire" and "Byzantine Empire" are modern historiographical terms, and he would have known himself as the "Roman Emperor". --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 21:08, 17 September 2016 (EDT)

::::The historians have established conventions on these things and I don't see a good reason not to follow them. The fact that Justinian is classified as Eastern Roman rather than as Byzantine is all the more reason to put him on this table. [[Aurelian]], [[Mark Antony]], [[Scipio|Scipio Africanus]], and [[Cicero]] probably belong on it as well. Washington certainly looks out of place here.

:::::I added [[Cicero]], and you can add the rest if you wish. I'm just worried that the list is getting too long for this template. If there is a way to condense the list of great Romans, what would be great. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 17:04, 18 September 2016 (EDT)
