		+
		+	People from across the world have for decades come together to [[Reenactments\|reenact]] historical military and civilian life at various periods in time. A large number of these are dedicated to the Roman era.
		+
		+	Reenactment in Nova Roma takes on its own definition. Many citizens take on a variety of activities, from the use of language, cultural and religious practice, and even military training, as the real thing, not as a pretend scene. In this case it is meant as “revival” and “restoration”. The standard English use of the word “reenactment” does don’t have this same aspect. Every citizen who has an authentic Roman garment falls into this Nova Roman vocabulary definition, whether they participate in public performances or not (real or unreal), and every real (not-pretense) ceremony that is carried out. There really needs to be another word to be more transparent about this activity in Nova Roma. It is unfortunate that the English language chose the word “reenactment” to denote wearing clothes of another period; an issue that does not arise in many other languages.
		+
		+	Take the Hungarian language and the use of their word for “reenactment”, which is “hagyományőrzés”. Its literal translation is “preservation of tradition” or “keeping traditions”. Those in Hungary who practice and participate in these activities have never needed to debate what such definitions mean. Whether a simple legionary or priest, senator or just someone who occasionally participates in Roman events just once in every 5-7 year, they all embrace it and are happy to be labelled as "tradition keepers".
		+
		+	Nova Roma is a living reconstruction, a model Roman state, from top to bottom, a community working, functioning, living according to Roman rules, Roman traditions, including all aspects, like literature, clothing, religion and law. In the ancient Roman state, in order to run for public office as an ''assiduus'' one is required to perform, or at least be available to undertake, military service. It is a requirement in our Nova Roman constitution as well. The Nova Roman military is ceremonial, it's an honor guard with the mission of popularizing Roman history and culture, an educational army. To be as fair as possible to the great variety of citizens, since many people can face several obstacles, physical participation in our educational honor guard legions is not required. If one does it, this is great, but instead of absolving this ancient requirement, a simpler way is offered: it can be substituted with a very small monetary contribution, which in a way does fulfill the sense of “contributing to the legions”. It is also important to keep in mind that it is not obligatory, unless one wants to be an office holder. Ancient Romans had the same requirement, so do we, albeit adapted to our circumstances as a cultural organization.
