Foriortes una (Stronger together)

Latin phrase.

It goes back 2,000 years ago.....more or less. Mussolini, I think, if you dig enough....he simply borrowed it from some Vatican guy.

If I recall my high school Latin class correctly, the fasces, with the legend, “Senatus Populusque Romanus,” or “SPQR” were a common symbol for Roman government, sort of like “USA” and the Stars and Stripes today. The Latin phrase means, “The Senate and the Roman People.”
