Tacitus:
I didn't know where to post this!

Ken W2:
LOL, that is funny. On the not so funny side, I finished Tacitus' Annals a few months ago and now am into Suetonius' Twelve Caesars. Not infrequently in these works you can see clear parallels that don't bode well for us in the U.S. I came across the text below a few weeks ago and was so struck by it I sent it to my kids as a reminder that history does repeat itself.
Robert_Brenchley:
The Roman empire split in two; the west fell and the east didn't. I don't know whether there's any parallel - I'm several thousand miles away - but it often does looks as though there are two or more competing versions of the US.
