Nova Roma - Res Publica Nova Romana
Nova Roma was established as an international organization on March 1, 1998, with the aim of providing Roman themed education through living history and networking with other Roman themed organizations and institutions. Nova Roma is a unqiue, global entity, with members found throughout Eastern Europe, Italy, UK, Australia and through the United States.
Nova Roma is an international living history society, a community of scholars, students and enthusiasts who teach and study Roman society through the framework of a symbolic nation based on the ancient Roman Republic. Nova Roma encourages a focus to the study and restoration of ancient Roman culture. Through living history and reenactment, they undertake activities in classical studies and Roman religion. Unlike many other Roman reenactment groups, they do not have a military focus but seek to demonstrate and understand the ‘Mos maiorum’ (custom of the ancestors) and ‘Romanitas’ (the Roman way). They are not considered a LARP or Role-Play group, as they take all traditions and customs seriously (with the necessary compromises for modern times), ensuring accuracy in their activities to promote integrity in their Roman identity education.
Nova Roma is best described as a global society of like-minded individuals studying all things Roman. Modelled on the Roman Republic, they even have a formal Roman Senate (who also form their international Board of Directors). For those that choose, citizens (members) have the option to run as a candidate for many of the public offices and follow the ‘cursus honorum’ over serval years. Managed by the magistrates, Nova Roma also host various activities and events online (as well as physically, through small autonomous sub-groups) and hold public forum through various social media platforms.
