I wasn't meant to work 37 hours a week, I have a poet's soul. I was meant to be the only son of a wealthy Victorian aristocrat living a life of melancholic reflection in the gothic ruin of a manor whose greatest days are far behind it.

Lucius Septimius Severus born in Leptis Magna, Africa, was the first Roman emperor of North African origin. During his reign (193-211) he favored his hometown, which became one of the most important Roman cities in North Africa along with Carthage and Alexandria.
For the Romans AFRICA was not the name of the continent - as it is for us - but a Roman province that included the territory of Tunisia, the coast of Libya along the Gulf of Sidra and northeastern Algeria.
The Leptis Magna archaeological site is located near Tripoli in Libya. World Heritage Site since 1982.
