How Did the Romans Conquer Iberia? | History of Hispania 220 - 20 BC (feat. @Know History)

Hi everyone! Sorry this one is out so late - it took a long time to make, and as soon as it finished processing we got a fat copyright strike on the nice Portuguese anthem in the video :'( Let me know if you enjoyed it and comment below if you want to see a video on the Carthaginian Conquest of Iberia before the the Roman arrival!

[@serbarr2087]

When the Astures and Cantabrians were conquered, the Romans crucified the leaders. While crucified, those men started singing in joy, which spooked the Romans, who asked other tribesmen why those men were singing, to which they replied "they sing in joy because they will die as free men". Of the Celtic tribes in Iberia, those two were the last to fall, and would remain always rebellious, which is why the Romans had a legion stationed in what is today the city of Leon throughout most of the Empire time frame.

[@adrianrg75]

And in fact the name of León actually comes from the latin "legio" (legion in English), which refers to the Legio VII Gemina, the legion that was stationed there.

History with Hilbert I love your videos man. Interesting point: Romanization may not have been very difficult in terms of linguistics. Italic languages like Latin were very similar to Celtic languages. In fact most linguists say before they diverged they were a part of a single Proto Italic-Celtic branch. Also, the language of the Lusitanians were so similar to other Italic languages, linguists still have not determined whether or not to classify it as an Italic language, Celtic language, or an earlier offshoot of Proto Italic-Celtic branch. It may actually be an interesting video in the future too.

@@alekisighl7599 In so far as Spanish historiography is concerned, the Roman name of present-day Tarragona is spelt “Tarraco”. Clues that support this spelling are the “o” in the modern toponym, or the “o” in the demonym “tarraconense”, which comes from the Latin “Tarraconensis”. Concerning emperor Hadrian (who by the way was born in Hispania), the Latin spelling is “Hadrianus” and the Spanish “Adriano”, though as a modern first name the spelling in Spanish is “Adrián”.

Great Video! Unlike the Arab conquest of Visigothic Spain in 711 (which was carried out by Tariq ibn Ziyad), the Roman conquest, on the other hand, was slow and gradual. The Roman control in Hispania, in turn, was only definitively installed during Augustus' reign, more precisely after the Cantabrian Wars (29-19 BC), as the video already mentioned. The cultural root of the Iberian Peninsula is, par excellence, Roman! With the exception of Madrid, virtually all the major Iberian cities were founded by the Romans! • In Portugal, including the current Spanish Autonomous Community of Extremadura as well (province of LVSITANIA), for example, the Romans founded the cities of Lisbon (Felicitas Iulia Olisippo), Évora (Ebora liberalitas Iulia), Beja (Pax Iulia), Santarém (Scallabis), Coimbra (Aeminium) and, lastly, EMERITA AVGVSTA itself (Mérida), the capital of Lusitania. Moreover, the Romans also founded the city of BRACARA AVGVSTA (current Braga), which was part of Hispania Tarraconensis. • In Spain, more precisely in Hispania Baetica (modern Andalusia), the Romans founded the cities of Seville (HISPALIS), Granada (Florentinum Iliberitanum) and, of course, Córdoba itself (CORDVBA), which was both the capital of Hispania Baetica and the birthplace of Seneca. • In Hispania Tarraconensis, which included practically all of modern Spain (with the exception of Extremadura and Andalusia), the Romans founded Toletum (Toledo), Segovia and Tarragona (Colonia Iulia Urbs Triumphalis Tarraco), which was the capital of Tarraconensis. The Roman legacy within the Iberian Peninsula, therefore, is simply HUGE! Yes, many of these cities already had a Greek and/or Phoenician past. However, it was the Romans who expanded them. Both Portugal and Spain, in my historical analysis, are the two "daughters" of Rome.

[@hutchlinda9]

Were these cities "founded" by the Romans or "conquered" by them? ...and later these cities were conquered by other peoples, so Roman occupation was just a minute in time within the world's history.

[@thebrocialist8300]

Blue eyes could have come from Spain’s Western Hunter-Gatherer heritage. [WHG admixture levels run quite high in Iberia, especially in the East of the peninsula - where Basques, Cantabrians, etc. have levels that exceed those observed in many parts of Central and Northern Europe.] The trait may also come from Steppe ancestry - which has been present in the peninsula since the Bronze Age (at modest levels). Iron Age Proto-Celts and Celts, as well as and late (Roman) imperial period Germanics-e.g. Suebic Vandals and Visigoths-would be the groups who were the most impactful in introducing such ancestry to the peninsula. (The Franks/Carolingians may have also been a significant source of such - particularly in Catalunya and Eastern Iberia.) Bottom line is that having grey/blue/green eyes-while not extremely common-is not unheard of for people of Spanish descent. Half of my family (which comes from Asturias and Catalunya) have blonde or red hair and light eyes (blue or gray).

Hey. What happened wit the basques? Did they fell with the astures and cantabrians?

[@adriancampos8640]

They were roman allies and never really fought them.

"Hey guys, what should we use as a flag?" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "That is brilliant."

Congratulations on the video! It's noticeable that you put more academic rigor on this video than the previous one. I sense that your decision to include the geographical Portugal in this video made you do the homework. You used correctly the terms, Iberia, Iberian Peninsula, Hispania, and Spain, almost every single time. These words do not mean the same thing and are not interchangeable. Sadly, judging by a lot of the comments, many people have no clue. I know it can be very confusing, especially when the Latin word Hispania literally translates to Spain in English; However, they mean different things. The English word Spain can only be applied in the context of the modern country "Kingdon of Spain". Unfortunately, with the unification of the Iberian kingdoms, and in particular the final union of the crowns of Castille and Aragon, they appropriated the word Hispania for the name of the new country, to complicate matters. Again, words have meaning; if someone is trying to be professional and academically rigorous...one has to be, well, rigorous! You did it well.

Carthaginian conquest as well? Yes please 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@zechariahsmith1764]

Would love to see Carthaginian conquest of Iberia

[@themobstar58]

For the past year, I have been creating an amateur film project, called LUSITANI, which will eventually become a saga. This is a legend created by me that represents some fictional events from Celtic-Lusitanian mythology (Portugal in the bronze and iron ages). I would really like to have your support in some way! LUSITANI's first film is now available on this same channel with which I'm making this comment! (The sequel is already being written!)

[@papanoma5710]

I want to see a video on Kallakians and how they adopted the celtic roots

[@ocavicabavi3490]

Rome accepted us as Roman citizens seeing the strength of the Spain ppl we earned their respect with blood.

Playing a legionary's life, a great small indie game about the 2nd and 3rd punic war, while watching

[@Fatherofheroesandheroines]

Iberia ALREADY includes Portugal so this " controversy" is just stupid lol

[@TheStickCollector]

Neat

[@chesbaret]

Obrigado por including Portugal

[@anxiousfoodperson8116]

I thought this was an interesting video and I'd like to see something on Carthaginian Iberia.

[@golgotretze]

Why did you cut out the Balearic Islands?

[@ZecaPinto1]

This way. Divide and conquer Edit Also... Yes... The Iberian península includes all of mainland Spain and Portugal. None can speak of a whole place without speaking about their areas

[@dmgtroll7569]

Where are you from because as someone born in Cantabria you have a very good Spanish accent

[@anacasanova7350]

Las vascongadas y parte de Cantabria y Asturias no fueron dominadas por Roma, sino que poco a poco se fueron adaptando al contacto con el mundo hispanoromano. Hasta asimilarse.

[@sandraleiva1633]

Portugal has the same history as Spain. All Hispania was one until the 12th century.

[@elliottprats1910]

Anyone who cried about Portugal not being added but said nothing and ignored the fact that Andorra and Gibraltar was also left out was just virtue signaling for attention.
