Happy Birthday, Roma! - Matthew Amt - 04-21-2002
Avete!<br>
April 21 is the traditional date of the Founding of Rome! Anyone celebrating? We've got family and friends coming over for a house-warming, but no Romans unfortunately (too big a crowd!). I'd rather be out chopping up Gauls or kidnapping Sabines. Maybe I'll settle for wearing my toga!<br>

Avete<br>
We had our first feast last night to celebrate Roma's B-day we had a small crowd show (24 people) but the food was fantastic as well we did gladitorial displays. We also had bellydancing done period with live drummers. Every person that showed had a fantastic time. We were in luck that a professional Photographer was working next door and see us and just had to take pictures of the feast. I hope to get pictures of the feast upon Legion XXI's website within the next few weeks as we get the photo's sent to us. Lots of win and great food was the way to go We had a wide selection of Gauls, Greeks etc.<br>

Happy Birthday, Rome!
So what would the anniversary be? According to Varro Rome was founded in 753 BC. There is no year 0, so would this be 2762 ab urbe condita?

you right, Jona, I would must do. Truly that's a shame, around the Colosseo we have many odd guys but unfortunately our authorities tolerate them. Although they are there to live, nevertheless they are a sort of gangster, in fact is quite impossible to do the some there for anybody being out of their gang, surely they hit him.They have not respect for any laws and really don't care at all philology of ancient rome military equipment.
