I didn't look into the methodology, but as a group they look almost too handsome to me. I guess that it's hard to capture all the little flaws from what sources are available

Vespasius is super friendly and wants to buy you a drink and then tell you ALLLLLL of his opinions about muslims Gordian I and Gordian II were great friends, but they had a falling out about what kind of shed they should get for the allotment Severus Alexander is hot, but he knows it and is way too up himself as a result (also paging Ms. Boods if she's not here already)

I mean he probably didn’t have any special opinions on the Jews. He fought a war with them but that was his job. They revolted, he put them down.

IIRC the Romans were weirded out by the Jews because of their whole 'you shall have no other gods but me' thing, some considered them atheists as a result.

I mean they were seen as kind of weird and the brutality of the first two Jewish revokts didn’t help. Granted that brutality was just as likely to be against other Jews but what they did to Cyrene was something

Since the Romans were big on syncreticism (which does not mean "all religions are true", but rather "everybody worships the same gods but calls them different names"),the other reaction was deciding the Jews were worshipping Caelus, the Sky Itself and grandfather of Jupiter.

The romans loved exaggerating barbarians size and the HA various writers would believe anything if it made a good story so take all that with a pinch of salt

Vespasian looks like he made the world's most famous beat drop and obviously charts on itunes in August of 2020. he looks so much like Phil Collins it's uncanny Domitian looks like he does Christopher Walken impressions because that is obviously Kevin Pollak And why is Jack Whitehall the roman emperor Hostilian now? Because that's clearly him and that's either very funny or somehow fitting.
