Why are all the women drawn in this video so damn hot?
Was not expecting a 3+ hr narration. I thought this was going to be a compilation of all your Roman Empire videos in order.
I watched this masterpiece in its entirety. And I will do so again. Jack Rackun absolutely RULEZ!
"…Rome is not allowed to have nice things." I couldn't have said it better. Ancient Rome had far, far, far more bad emperors than good ones. And, it would've been better to have a prime minister. But, Ancient Rome didn't go in for common sense.
This masterpiece was so remarkable, that I am now going to save every penny between now and the time this genius goes to Japan next year – with me alongside.
This is so much better then the short form stuff, its great ❤
Plavious, what's that commotion?
Oh, nothing, dear. The Emporers body guard just killed the Emperor.
Again?
Well, we were kinda due for it. It's been 10 years since the last one.
Oh, well, how many claims are there?
Let me check… 4 no 5.
Oh, not so bad.
I've been watching this near religiously (and as a sleep aid). Love this format and art. Really hope to see another vid like this from you!
This whole video makes me think that Rome might be the only fallen empire that did not die out in a blaze of glory, but rather died from natural causes in it's own bed
This was quite the tour de force 😄
