Post # 1

In my earlier years I found an eagles nest with seven chicks in the nest. Eagles almost never clutch three chicks. Since eagles are considered sacred birds of Jupiter the situation was portrayed as a omen. The omen was that I would be consul seven times. Once I was elected consul I made the eagle the symbol of the Senate and Citizens of Rome.

  2. I accept your friend request because there are several times where we can talk about Rome and the Roman goverment.
