I don't need to idealise the celts to look down on the romans. The romans were not great thinkers, artists or makers of any kind. Their so called philosophy was watered down from the greeks. They copied most of their technology from the celts (Chainmail, soap... even the Gladius is modelled after a beautiful leafbladed celtic shortsword)
An because of the Romans all the interesting religions of Europe got eaten up by the christians.

I think I think... Therefore I think I am.
PS. I also think that Rome is a very bad analogue for the Empire of the Red Moon. They are late iron age, not bronze age, and their armed might arose from standardizion and massproduction of gear. Not quite the Empire I see when I think of the Lunars.
