 Where do you think the Bankers were based during that time? 

The same fuckers (Bankers) during the Roman times are the same douche bags that we know as the Federal Reserve today. They have used currency as a tool to control the people for centuries. 
 What are you smoking? There were no banks in the Roman empire.

You really need to better educate yourself if you want to pretend you know what you're talking about. 
 Reread it. I said Bankers and I also capitalized for a reason. 
 Or do you prefer Money Changers. 

They have gone by several names throughout history and or region. I'm sure this is for deceptive reasons similar to how in the United States the Federal Reserve has nothing to do with the federal government. They give it a nice pretty name so less people know about the private corporation. In short currency, money, ledgers, banks, bankers, ect are  their tools. People have struggled for centuries to define them because they always remained hidden. 

Myself I often refer to them as The Evil Fuckers. You're free to use that one if you like. 
 Your knowledge of modern monetary theory is equal to your grammar skills.  
 Nice. 
 Didn't want it too difficult for you. 
 Wooosh! 
 Sorry if it went over your head, I'll write it in crayon next time. 👍
