Oh, maybe. I'll double check with the grandfather. But the ones I descended from came to the US before WWII.


I'm not sure on when/how many Volga Germans emigrated, but I would imagine some went before WWII. Those that did were probably glad, I suppose--Stalin wasn't too good to the Volga Germans. Be interesting if you find out, though!

the furthest ancestor i can trace myself back to is Julius Cesar. Perhaps you should all hail me as king...

I feel this sudden urge to scream bullshit...

But then again considering how much of a man-whore Caesar was, I suppose it could be considered.

Your claim can't be believed. If you are to make such statements, you ought to provide proof. No, Caesar wasn't king of the world.

Emperor of the known world could be considered. In addition to that, maybe IF just assumed that we all lived in Europe.

Caesar was more a dictator near the end of his life, after having defeated his rivals. Emperor, king, no.

I don't really care, if you're not going to contribute to the subject of this thread refrain from making such statements.

Actually he was a dictator the entire time. (Romans elected people to serves as a dictator for three months in periods of war) Caesar was elected repeatedly and eventually forced the senate to make him dictator for life.) When I said Emperor I was actually thinking of Octavian AKA Augustus Caesar, Julius Caesars adopted son, and the first roman emperor.

I come from Siberia and Ukraine where my ancestors were cossacks. Most of them were generals that you're able to find on the net. I'm proud.

Eh, could you give us at least an example?

Not the entire time, what was the Triumvirate for? Ah, yeah Augustus had himself installed as "emperor".
