READ MOREYou would have been a pretty successful merchant, according to your answers. Merchants were hardworking people in Ancient Rome. A merchant was a very smart person who can solve most problems and enjoys more wealth than the average citizen. That said, they did not enjoy a high social standing, and as a result, knew a day's labor, even with slaves. You are sharp-minded, a solver of problems and one with an appreciation for money and its power. You enjoy making your own way in the world, not staying too long in one place but always exploring and finding new ways to work and make a profit.

READ MOREArchitects were both high-level scientists and engineers of their time. A good architect was worth their weight in gold, designing and constructing buildings that would stand the test of time for thousands of years, only to be discovered later by us modern humans. You would be on call for the wealthiest and most prominent citizens, managing crews of up to thousands of people, always creating and adding to the beauty that is Rome. You are incredibly smart, focused, and logical, with a determination that can see any project, no matter how long, to fruition.

What creations would you make, perhaps choosing to be a sculptor, a painter, or a poet? The Roman age saw a significant boost in the arts, especially in sculpture and writing. You are a sensitive person who prefers to work alone, creating things that originate inside yourself. You adore all things beautiful and often sigh when you look at the natural world and how remarkable it is. Yours is a soul longing to create, and you would be a great addition to the artistic world of Ancient Rome.

You are eloquent, have a social conscience, and want to see the world changed for the better. This is why you probably would have gone into politics during Ancient Rome times. You would have been part of the Senate of Rome, helping uphold the democracy of Rome as well as a balance with its emperor, taking care of the needs of the many over the few. Yours is the way of words, of intellect, of responsibility. You think things deeply, and you're great at looking ahead and planning for the future.

You have an outgoing spirit that is perfect for an entertainer of Ancient Rome. These were people extremely good at sleight of hand, magic shows, and acrobatics, and they would wow the citizens of Rome with their antics. You have both the charm and the spirit to be a great entertainer. As an entertainer, you'd probably move from place to place, bringing the joy of your craft to all the little Roman towns in the empire and making people happy wherever you go. They would wait all year for you to come to their little towns, carrying news of the world and bringing them evenings of joy after their hard days of work.

They were men (and women at times) of mystery. They were physically hard workers, working in teams, and relying on each other. That's how you are as well. You prefer working in teams of people, having comrades and colleagues, and not bossing anyone around. You love adventure and don't want to get stuck living in one place for too long. You like the open air in your face and the sun above your head. It's a hard life, but one with great rewards, adventure, and even riches... if you're lucky enough.
You enjoy the simple things in life. Physical labor, for you, is something of zen. You go into it, and hours seem to... READ MOREYou enjoy the simple things in life. Physical labor, for you, is something of zen. You go into it, and hours seem to pass you by as you work. Before you know it, you're done your work, and your aching muscles give you a sense of satisfaction at another day's work well done. Remember, being a farmer doesn't mean you are poor; some of them were very rich indeed. You like being outside and would hate to sit all day. You covet the simple life, a life without too many ups and downs, a life that is stable and family-oriented. That is why farming is the best career for you in Ancient Rome.
