Comments by "Mark Zuckergecko" (@markzuckergecko621) on "The Praetorian Guard Proclaims Claudius Emperor" video.
It's always been kinda crazy to me how ancient Rome and other civilizations around that era are looked at as being so long ago it's not that relevant to today, and in some ways that's true, technology has advanced so rapidly in the last century that it was really a different world back then. But to put in perspective, 2000 years ago was closer to present day than it was to the earliest records we have of ancient Egypt.

The people who are seen as the top power are usually just puppets of the people behind the scenes, who are really making the decisions, simply putting people in place to "make the decisions" as far as the general public is concerned.
