A Roman History Lesson In 54 Cards

Two thousand years of conquest, culture, and intrigue are gathered into a single deck with Roman Empire Playing Cards. Each suit tells the story of a civilization that crossed Rome's path, from the wild north of the Gauls to the grain rich Nile of Egypt and the bitter rivalry with Carthage. The aces spotlight landmarks like the Colosseum and the Lighthouse of Alexandria, while Jokers feature Spartacus and Attila the Hun as history's wild cards. Printed on 310gsm German black core stock with an air-cushion finish, and housed in embossed, gold foil tuck boxes in both English and Latin editions, this deck is made for players, collectors, and history lovers. Back Roman Empire Playing Cards on Kickstarter now.
