    I’m just saying it only lasted 2000 years if you could the republic, in which case it lasted 1000 years in the west (traditionally until Augustulus was deposed in 476) not 500 years. I realize this has nothing to do with the topic at hand and I’m just being a pedant.

        No worries, I didn’t explain myself very well. If you’re in the US, take care today.
