It's almost as if that term was made up to put a name on something that wasn't Roman times or now

(Mind you, now being 16th century Italy)

now being 16th century Italy

I think that's incorrect, actually. By my calculations, we're at LEAST a dozen years farther along than that!

And some of us might not even be in Italy.

I wouldn't go THAT far.. Humans outside of Italy is just TOO unrealistic!

It's half roman times. Modern is no Rome. And pre medieval common era is full Rome.
