More interesting tidbits from the dawn of our society, the Roman Empire.
Did you know that although most Gladiators were slaves, it was considered noble. A man went in to combat and gave it his all because he was asked to.
On the opposite end of the table, being an Actor in the theatre was the least noble accomplishment. Actors were always slaves, never free men. It is said that because you take on the role of somebody else, you are not being true to yourself and thus lacks any sort of nobility at all.
