INTRODUCTION:
Welcome to the Certamen Historicum, History Quiz about the history of our Republic, Nova Roma. To celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the founding of Nova Roma, this contest is about our own Nova Roma history. This quiz will help you to immerse in our community's history, and knowing each other better finally will lead us to accept each other better, in the spirit of unity for one goal, the restoration of the Roman republic. This is a great opportunity to see how much we can remember, or, for newer citizens, to help you learn about what has happened in our Republic. So please take part, join in the fun, and let's see how much we know, or can find out, about our own past.
