I thought this was slightly funny.

Mark Zuckerberg is known these days for wearing t-shirts with Latin phrases on them, especially ones where he compares himself to Julius Caesar.

Bluesky made a shirt in the same style, but theirs says "a world without Caesars" in Latin.

You can also hear it every day if you’re an English speaker. The Roman conquest of England greatly affected the English language.

Yes but I can't let this chance go by to piss off the English and say they're a German colony, the country they love to hate.
Speak a germanic language.
England, literally land of the Angle. Where are the Angle from? And who's the other part of the Anglo-Saxons?
Ruled by....The Windsors? Doesn't sound right.
Or did they change their Von Saxen-Gotha name for some mysterious reason in 1914?

Ask them why they let their little island be conquered so many times. Romans, Vikings, Anglo-Saxons, Normans. That we know of. Did they need an infusion of culture because they have none of their own? Was it a DEI thing? We may never know.
