Also, I was rereading the old thread and in the State of the World at the top of EUIV the French king has a line about "Why does everyone want to be Rome so badly? We're doing perfectly fine just being France." and, woo. That's some spicy unintentional foreshadowing.

Oh drat; good catch!

Oh, this is a great ship you got here. Converted battleship hull? My wife was always telling me this is a great idea if you need to repurpose your heavier ships and - oh, excuse me. I don't mean to intrude. This is the LÉ Columba, Irish naval ship, happy to meet you.

Just one more thing and I'll get out of your hair. Is this your ammunition storage?

This is amazing.

The ideal society is world socialism fueled by the permanent revolution ... and Rome. In fact, ancient Roman philosophers fled to space where they have built the ideal communist state, a higher order society than the flawed communism on Earth. The peaceful nature of their utopia is preventing them from spreading true, Roman communism on Earth. Nuclear war is inevitable and we must annihilate the capitalist order with nuclear fire to clear the way for the Romans to return so we may join them in true, socialist interplanetary Rome; no price is too high to pay in order to achieve this goal.

I think you misunderstood the question.

They asked - essentially - "What would be a weird belief within the context of the ByzLP universe be?"

Not, "What is an objectively correct description of our reality?"
