The United States is the most Fascist nation to ever exist, with a greater portion of Fascists in the population than the Third Reich.

    The Roman Empire started falling in 453 but hung around as a political entity until the 15th century.

    Also Rome pretty much always ran on slavery and general shittieness. It wasn't fascist because Fascism is 20th century phenomena and the economy and culture were very different, but Rome was never a great place to live for slaves and peasants.

      yeah I think we're on the same page, also, I was counting the collapse of the western empire as the fall of rome, even though I know the other half still thought of itself as rome, because it was a more dramatic "fall"
