User blog:Tayley18/Comparison Between the Greeks and the Romans

I'm sure there are a few blogs similar to this, but I haven't seen any so here it goes.

Which camp do you like better personally? If you were a demigod, which camp would you rather be in and why? What do you like about both camps? Do you like their rules/way of life? Even ancient Greece and Rome comparisons are welcome.

Personally, I am ALL Greek. I don't like anyhting of Rome, quite frankly. Even Camp Jupiter. I like the demigods there, but the way it's set up... bleh. I don't like all the regulations and procedures, the council, the seer Octavion and how he's a cheap knockoff of an oracle, how they place people in cohorts based on prestige, how they only serve a few years at the camp, how they just lounge around as adults in New Rome. I like the Greek style of things. Fight when needed, train casually, go home for the school year if you want, have a somewhat normal life, live in a peaceful (for the most part) enviornment, make friends, have sing alongs, parties, more fun. The Romans seem to have less fun than the Greeks.

Also, I just plain and simple like the Greek Gods more than the Romans. I found it INCREDIBLY strange when Mars acted so disciplined. I was thinking, "I want Ares back." Anyway, the names are just better in Greek. Ares is a cooler name, Poseidon's better than Neptune, Zeus is WAY better than Jupiter, etc. you see where I'm going. Also, the attitude at the Greek camp seemed more laid back. I don't like the militaristic aspect of the Roman camp. BTW, Camp Jupiter sounds strange. That'd be like calling Camp Half-Blood Camp Zeus. Honestly, I understand Zeus/Jupiter is king of the gods, but does either camp REALLY need to be named after him?
