What do ethnocentrists have to say about that?

Civic Nationalism is just a synonym for Patriotism.

>Most IMPRESSVE EMPURE
>doesn't post the british empire
Lol

The britons are the last descendants of the Romans who aren't mongrels

yea, and it collapsed once the demographics changed after barbarians took over the military due to lack of recruits (low birthrates, romans couldnt breed because high taxation, no money for children)

So

Germans are empire-suffocating spics? Wow really made me thinkaroo

You are joking right?
The Romans were ethnic centrists.
The entire reason why the Goths "Romes allies" turned on Rome was because the Romans treated them like shit because they were not Roman.

yea but it didnt take long before it was rich nobles taking your land and using slaves for labor, while you get sent off to fight

Germany has been responsible for every disastrous event to occur in Europe since the ancient world. What makes you think those forest niggers are anything but dindu nuffins?

Seems a lot like what Islam is doing to the Germanistan atm.

Sweet revenge, anyone?

>built on civic nationalism
Not by any means, but it was certainly destroyed by it.

They also fell apart because they trusted foreigners too much.

At first only land owners could fight on the army. Later, it was the best way to get rich; with pillage; so every poorman would love to go to the front.

They had to change that law after Hannibal Slaughtered something like 60% of their military.

And it collapsed when they let in too many Germans who were more loyal to their ethnic origin.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

How the fuck could an empire ever be ethnic nationalist? You'd have to expel/kill everyone from the areas you invade and replace them with your own people.

The whole point of an empire is various ethnic groups living under the rule of one.

>And it collapsed when they let in too many Germans who were more loyal to their ethnic origin.
Romans were somehow thinking that money could solve all their military problems and that hired mercenaries who lived in dark forests months away from any roman city and never shared roman culture would go all out defending Rome in some remote province.

The only limit for the roman empire was the premedieval technology

For example, they did know about virus and bacteria, it was a vagye eea of something like that, but with that ancient technology there was nothing to do about it

When people think of le British Empire they think of this.
