Unfortunate why? Because smart people would have just let the Romans roll right on through?

I understand the point that the odds were wildly against them, but the same could be said for many a small nation in the path of the Nazis, and we’re not too kind to those that just rolled over.

Romans were not Nazis. They just weren’t.

The British Empire is a better fit. And our own rebellion included a sober look at the odds. It was granted, in the discussion leading up to the decision for war, that some thought had to be given to whether victory were possible.
