Who would win in an all-out war

This is the classic western roman empire at its peak

Say their countries are put together, handwaving disease, shock value, geographical displacement effects, etc.

How?!

The one with the modern military.

Ellimist what were you thinking? Please expand, this thread surely must have more to it than it appears to have.

We would slaughter them.

...the United States has tanks, guns, airplanes, naval warships, nukes, computers, satellite vs. Roman Empire with spears and arrows and horses.

Seriously?

Ell is too smart for this. He has an ulterior motive in mind.

War Elephants, otherwise known as dinner.

It'd be funny to drop napalm on them.

Most first world country are not what they once were.

Yeah. The U.S really needs to cut off the parasite countries like the Vast Majority of EU from our Teat. Let them starve to death due to their own stupidity. Countries like the Land Of U.K.
