Well, let´s get it over with.<br>
I´m a sixteen year old highschooler from Holland, and have stumbled on this exciting place doing a search for Conn Iggulden (The Gods of Google follow strange paths).<br>
<br>
I´ve always had a big interest in history, and, in fact, plan to study it, if I´ve got what it takes. This interest was sparked by military miniatures, especially Napoleonic ones, when I was about 9 (although my memory can´t give me certainty about this), and I have since then painted my fair share of historical and fantasy miniatures, and read a lot of historical books.<br>
My interest for Roman history suddenly developed when I first read Caesar, and this interest has now been cultivated through many hours of translating Latin texts in school (*sigh*).<br>
<br>
I am mostly ignorant on the exact facts of Roman history, so I think I´ll mostly be lurking here, and trying to learn from the wise ones available here. <p></p><i></i>
