The online echo chambers are full of doom and gloom, but in the real world there’s still plenty of positive things to look forward to. What are YOU most looking forward to in the coming year 476?

I don't know .... I can't read :(
This will be the year I finally turn my piss into gold. I can smell it.
That's easy: Just tax the piss!
Man, I'm just hoping my crops grow right.
Our 2 young Oxen should be strong enough this year to carry the plough on their own, so old Till can go to the Butcher. Everything is already planed, after lent is over and the tithes are paid, I'll supply another 5th for a wedding, the rest is stored for next winter.
It's not much, but it's honest work. Good man.
I'm fucken excited for King Leotychidas to have his soul razed.
Raised up, or razed in fire?
The world will end in 499 and I am looking forward to the rapture.
We've started the Middle Ages? You mean all that awfulness was just the Beginning Ages? Blimey.
I can't wait for the Roman Empire to collapse. The climate is changing, rural people are poor and discontent. It's all bullshit and we've been sold a lie by the imperial elites When they finally stop manipulating our local economy we can bring manufacturing back to Britain.
(Seriously though, manufacturing collapsed, but peasant skeletons got healthier in the centuries after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire. It makes you wonder.)
Did all the unhealthy peasants die leaving only the healthy ones? (IDK I'm not a peasant skeleton)
No. The skeletons in the dark ages stopped going to the Roman baths, which being slightly acidic due to the urine content were slowly dissolving them.
The emperor has been buying Christian slaves by the hundreds. Surely the Coliseum floor will run red with blood!
Honestly? I just want a nice quiet posting somewhere that needs roadwork done. Germania's not that bad of a place. Decent people by and large.
That's why I signed on. To help. That's the whole POINT of the legion. We're professionals meant to enact Ceaser's Will. Some prefer the skirmishes and cutting down rabble, but.... I just want to build, and seeing folk happy to have decent road service from town to town makes all the rest worth it.
I mean... what did you think i signed up for, the pay? Please... The money has been chipped and clipped so much that coinage isn't worth itself anymore.
So, if things do go to hell? I'm gonna work with who I can to make sure my little corner of things is a little less unstable. S'all any of us can do.
Someone fell for the imperialist propaganda.
My focus is mostly on the community I'm in. If I thought the tribals could do a better job I'd be in favor of them. However, I don't think they are the best horse for the race.
Ten more birds for my menagerie! I will be the king of the prophets!
The Spanish haven't shown up yet. It's just tribe vs. tribe right now and we're feeling warlike, strong and fit, it's going to be a great year!
Odoacer finally getting his comeuppance!
It’s a scary time to a leggionaire. I fear the empire is crumbling.
