The Roman Empire may be very fascinating from a historical perspective, but let’s be realistic, most of the people at the top there were absolutely terrible, tyrannical, often murderous bastards witha completely self-centered sense of morality.

Weeell… If you actually look at some of the things the elites back then did and how the place was run, it was pretty damn extreme, even compared to today’s Trump era. Just two examples out of many to look up would names like Crassus or Caligula. As far-fetched as it may seem looking at just the modern world, I actually would argue that the sheer degree of general bastardry has come down a lot since then.
