During the height of the Roman republic, citizens held a nine day holiday, Parentalia, to commemorate their fallen ancestors. During this time, the aristocratic youths of Rome would wear death masks sculpted in the likeness of their most glorious ancestors and ride around the city in chariots. In this way, Roman people were assured of a life after death, one which was glorious and which was tangible, and the youth where taught to rejoice in the traditions and heritage of their family.

During the height of the American Empire, mongrels like yourself argue about skin colour and try to make claim to the history of every single patrician roman family because you're 34% Irish, 29% Dutch, and 11% Bantu, and 20% Italian.
