<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4877556, member: 19463"]Relatively few emperors were selected due to their Pietas. Most wanted everyone to think that the empire and everyone in it was better off because they were in power. Just as today, there might have been differing opinions on who had a good basis on Pietas and who was just trying to make us think they did. Today most of us think highly of Nerva, Antoninus Pius and Pertinax as the kind of people that we might believe in and be glad we served. Today we hear very different politicians claiming the components of Roman Pietas. They just use different words.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
