So In the air of July 4th I realized this obvious but messed up fact

There are fireworks called Roman candles…

Roman candles in history are Catholics that the Roman's drenched in flammables and lit on fire to slowly burn, they were used as lighting for parties in the gardens.. well at least that’s the legend, based off a few paintings- also known as “Nero’s torches”
