The survivorship bias is absolutely true. The buildings that survive are by far the exception. The Roman equivalent of apartment buildings and things of that nature did not last. The things that did, are the sort of grand monuments, funded by the wealth of emperors and built by slaves over many years. That is why those ones are the ones that are still around. If we in the present wanted to dedicate the time, resources, and effort to build things that would last thousands of years, we totally could. However, the cost of doing that is generally not considered worth it in the current day.

I'm from the Philippines, and as a citizen of a country that was colonized by the Spanish Empire for 333 years, I always get fascinated and look unto their influence and it roots back to the Romans, their architecture, traditions, and language, could be seen also in our country and it feels crazy. Most of our old buildings and some words in our language are of Latin influence while being in the far east Asia.

@@rensd12 Not all of them but a lot for sure. But few things to think of before saying "boo roman bad". The Roman Empire stayed for a long time because it had a good and working system. Far better than the provinces they "conquered" and vastly improved life quality all over the place. Talking about conquest, they often took the head of the provinces with little to no force at all. In fact some of them were still governed by the same people. And finally, for the vast majority of the provinces they took were in the past colonised or invaded by other populations. Roman were not the first and not the last. And people tend to only put colonisation next to white/western civilisations, but they represent very little to all conquests/invasions the world have seen.

As they took over other civilizations they took their knowledge and created a large library with the knowledge of the concord world. They also took the best building technology like the arch and rebuild the concord world. You are not only my favorite European historian but the most handsome and sexy one also! Keep it up man! 😎

in Greece we have these old appartement buildings surrounding everything, be it ancient greek and roman or even neoclassical. Only in a few places we have laws for building in a specific design. Everyone in the 60s and 70s started building these monstrosities so they can make money renting. You can clearly see it at 11:20 . It is a shame because we have almost everything. We have lots of mountains but also a lot of beaches and islands, ancient greek and roman ruins, medieval castles and monasteries and some good neoclassical areas . Then you go to a city, small town and sometimes even a village and you see the appartement vomit.

What they didn't tell us was they shot parts of it in Amphitheater of El Djem. They probably didn't mention it because your average viewer on History Channel wouldn't know or care about a second ancient amphitheater.

In physics, pretty much all of architecture is using some kind of physics. Warfare had to make use of the technologies of the time of course, think metal weapons and armor.

It is kind of fun as you "fly" to all these different countries of today, and then realize...just how enormously large the Roman Empire really was.

Great video again but I still miss some in Central Europe and Eastern Europe, in Switzerland,Austria,Hungary,Romania,Serbia,Bulgaria,North Macedonia,Slovenia or Armenia (Temple of Garni). In Croatia (for example Split) , in the middle east or North Africa (for example Lepis Magna) or Marocco or Portugal in Southwestern Europe or in Benelux (for example the roman wall in Tongres). I'm very glad you put to sites in Pula, Croatia in it and an English one in this one. I love your vlogs. but I'm a little spoiled. Keep up the good work.upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/00/Roman_Empire_Trajan_117AD.png the roman empire on its highest
