Does anybody know how to add references? I meant to add that I had estimated the year of Vincitatus' birth, based on the fact that, in real life, Mark Anthony fled Italy to escape his debts around that time. Since he didn't in this version of Earth history, it can be assumed that that was when Vincitatus was born. | Does anybody know how to add references?

I personally wonder how long Vincitatus lasted. Would Mark Anthony not have committed suicide with Cleopatra if he knew he had a dragon following him? Or did he die and leave a grieving dragon behind? | I personally wonder how long Vincitatus lasted.

:If Vincitatus was the first harnessed dragon known in Rome, would Octavian's legions develop anti-dragon tactics quickly enough to prevail and force Anthony's suicide? WRT breeds, the "Yellow Emperor" of China must've predated Vincitatus by several centuries (or even millenia), and yet appears to be a recognizable Celestial in existing artwork. (On the other hand, it's possible that the artwork was created considerably later and isn't historically accurate.) --[[User:Wombat1138|Wombat1138]] 14:57, 30 July 2010 (PDT) | :If Vincitatus was the first harnessed dragon known in Rome, would Octavian's legions develop anti-dragon tactics quickly enough to prevail and force Anthony's suicide?
