So It Is Nothing New, After All

While reading a description of the Roman Emperor Valentinian III it was said that he was "petulant and childish and probably mentally unbalanced."  No wonder the Western Empire fell - they had a WLB for an emperor!

Nonsense. Aetius would have made a better emperor than that doorknob Valentinian.

I'm from a small dying country in EU. I don't understand your idea that "Emperor" is a game changer/really important.

Does your "small dying country" have nukes?  That's a major difference.  Even Valentinian III couldn't destroy the world.

But the fuckhead we have now.....
