Orders from Caesar Augustus himself. A census of the whole empire, the first one while Quirinius is governor of Syria. Everyone has to go back to their own family’s town to register. Brilliant.
Someone on the road for the census

Caesar wants us counted.
Like everyone else, I’ve had to go back to my family’s home town to register for the Roman census. The roads are full of people doing the same.

So now the whole country’s on the road, every family going somewhere different. Absolute nightmare.

Same everywhere. People kipping wherever they can find a space.
