When asked, in a video a man answered “Three times a day” . “There’s so much to think about,” he explained, eliciting a stunned look into the camera from his soon-to-be wife.

It is still quite unknown why men  have an inclination towards the Roman Empire and a constant topic of their thoughts. The reason behind this is still unidentified however, one simple explanation could be the influence of the Roman Empire on the world. The Roman empire had created a world-dominating society. 

Another reason for this particular daydreaming amongst men could be the depiction of masculinity and authority which was possessed by men. Roman Empire is viewed through the prism of warfare, politics, domination, elite power and masucline sources.
