A God To Help You With Your Bowel Movement
We’ve already talked one obscure goddess but it’s almost unbelievable to hear they had a god for farting! Crepitus was the god of flatulence in the Roman pantheon, sources say. He was normally invoked when one needed help moving bowels. You might want to take that with a grain of salt, however. Scholars believe he was never worshipped in the traditional sense of the word. Some even think he might have only been the invention of a satirist writing about Roman culture! Nonetheless, this has not been verified and Crepitus has been referenced in many French literature works.

The Longest War The World Has Ever Seen
Did you know that the Roman Empire was on one end of the longest conflict in history? The Roman-Persian Wars went on for about 721 years and the Roman Empire maintained a mostly solid frontier throughout the whole lengthy ordeal. The Parthian Empire and the Roman Republic started going to war with each other as early as 66 BC! More major fights happened during the course of the Sasanian Persian and Roman empires. The excessively long ordeal ended in depleted resources and plenty of casualties. The Roman-Persian wars ultimately flickered out by the time the Arab Muslim Conquests began in 628 AD.
