How to World Build History

History, how does it unfold? What can we learn from it? How do historians actually shape their narratives? Today let's look at how to world-build history as we write our next Dungeons and Dragons campaigns, write fictional stories, or just world-build our projects for fun!

The rise of a state to dominance cedes such an advantage to the ruling class that wealth inequality explodes. Members of the elite exploit the created class tension to seize power with the coerced support of lower classes, leading to consolidation of political power.

I'm a pretty big history buff, and overall my rule is "nothing is too insane" in real life history people did shit 10× more impressive and 10× dumber than you could ever write. From one man holding a trench line, to a revolutionary dying from eating weeds in his backyard, people do some things.

Here is an archetype you may not have A hero in a great conflict loses a lover and starts wiping out the enemy. they tend to be mostly undefeatable until something special hits them in battle. at the end of the battle they fall. They tend to fall at the last battle. the battle tends to wipe out the enemy. The historical/mythological example is Achilles in the Trojan War. A fictional example is the Elder Scrolls character Pelinal Whitestrake from the Alessian Slave Rebellion. i hope this is helpful towards filling out you list

That's generally the basis for one of my characters, who is actually a legend/myth in my fantasy world General premise is that he is an elf, doesn't like how slow the elves do things so he becomes a warrior, and he fights and wins wars and shit, causing some good and some bad along his way, and dies when the god of war, fearing he may be surpassed, duels him. That's an oversimplification but generally what you need to know.

The British were a barbaric empire that owned the world, filled with poor dentistry and people that really like that magic drink.

[@3100620842]

An ancient technology resurfaces as a solution to an energy crisis, turning a small city-state into a world superpower. While this technology had been vaguely understood for almost two millennia, the original inventor had no ambition for greatness and the only working prototype was lost in a major disaster, so history turned its attention elsewhere. (Based very loosely on the Industrial Revolution and the burning of the library of alexandria). Not totally original, but what if ancient Egypt had steam engines?

Some examples to add to the cheat sheet: • Bernadotte’s wild story of how he ended up being the king of Sweden. • Pol Pot’s Kampuchean extreme ruralization experiment. • Japanese imperialism being fueled by lack of land and resources coupled with the need to fit into a cultural and societal mold imposed on them by colonialists. • How Napoleon’s armies were sent to arrest him and instead came back to him when he escaped exile. • A scientific golden age being fueled by a mandate from God to know and study (Islamic Golden Age). • Countercultural movements becoming so mainstream they become the norm and status quo and henceforth the traditional ways become revolutionary, and the cycle turns again... • The parallels between China and Rome, a unitarian civilizatory ‘eternal’state.

[@ghostclaimax]

My favourite part of history was when a person called Samuel Kinnyee (S. Kinnyee) set out a fleet of lone warriors with the help of a military commander called Blake Erdwin (B. Erd) to attack an ancient Kingdom of Santonia. S. Kinnyee was able to conquer the Kingdom with ease because B. Erd brought all of his well known skilled warriors from the Russian Kingdom of OldFang, S. Kinnyee then set up his own colonial Empire by the name of Vanakunia which later went on to conquer massive parts of the region and became a quite well respected example of how skilful warriors beat the quantity of warriors in history.

[@ASlickNamedPimpback]

My favourite part of history was when a person called Adolf Hitler (A. Hitler) set out his army of German soldiers who believed they were the ultimate race to attack the nation of the Soviet Union. A. Hitler was unable to conquer the Soviets because Joseph Stalin (J. Stalin) had a shit ton more soldiers than A. Hitler. And that became a quite well respected example of how an insane amount of good-enough soldiers and weapons beat the so-called best soldiers in history.

[@BasicallyBaconSandvichIV]

I actually have a background empire which "fixed" (aka, perpetually delayed) that problem at 20:50! It's a multi-multiversal empire who has been in a golden age for a couple millenia. The reasons why it's so successful? It's still run by the same dude who started the whole thing, ~40% of the population is (technically) that same dude, the ruler somehow manages to balance every single thing so that it doesn't spontaneously combust, and ultimately most citizens realise that living in this near-utopic empire is better than whatever would replace it. It's like holding together a bunch of repelling magnets together with magnets in hopes of creating a spider-tank, but somehow, like the immortal words of Todd Howard: "It just works.".

The fact that history is so dark is why I’m struggling with creating one. Real life history already makes me cry sometimes, I don’t want to have to cry while writing. I like it when things get really bad but then everything works out in the end and that just isn’t how history works.

[@Stoneworks]

you can make it so that's how your history works. You're the god of your world, it should be how you want it.

[@avollant]

Good video! It highlights many of the challenges I face in my own worldbuilding. However, there's one aspect you didn't touch on: the point of divergence OR the art of taking our contemporary world and veering it toward a future (or another reality) that aligns with our vision for our fictional world. Or more precisely, how to create a future historical narrative starting from a specific point in our own timeline (kind of a "What If?" scenario). More concretely, I'm grappling with the challenge of creating a historical framework for my universe that spans from the present day to the year 2300. Normally, I would use an excuse like "There was a terrible war, and many records from that period no longer exist." Unfortunately, I have to consider another faction (or a second humanity, if you will) whose origin I need to explain. So, I'm forced to conceptualize a timeline that explains how this split occurred and their individual evolution. It's not as easy as it sounds... That's why I think a follow-up video on this very topic would be just as welcome. Thank you, Alain.

[@tobirivera-garcia1692]

Try doing something with literal splits? For example, there was once a land bridge from russia to the americas, allowing their history to diverge. On the other hand, you could use ocean currents, or some sort of travel difficulty (mountains) that makes it so hard for them to interact that their history literally splits.

[@bobhallway5507]

The only slight issue is when you start including beings that live longer than humans into it. And then things kinda start to unravel at the edges

[@wyvernscale9634]

I like to consider my worldbuilding to be more or less realistic, like for instance I have one project where I'm trying to go into detail with the how and why of nearly everything, down to the economics and political systems! But, in that world, there is a massive outlier. An empire, which calls itself the White Stone. It is impossibly large, Reaching nearly to the north pole all the way past the eqyator, from coast to coast to coast. Even reaching to other continents. The White Stone wasn't always so massive, but it has existed for well over a thousand years, slowly expanding through the eras. Just to be clear, it is entirely unrealistic. But hey, I have a fantasy world, I might as well do something unrealistic and silly! (Plus there are some other reasons why it still exists, but i can only infudump so much in the yt comment section)

[@scallamander4899]

If you're interested in what causes dark ages and golden ages, you should check out the work of the historian Peter Turchin. Crudely simplified: times are good -> general population expands -> price of labour goes down -> population paid less -> population is poorer -> social unrest. This goes in tandem with another process: times are good -> elite population expands -> too many elite aspirants for not enough positions of power in the state -> elite competition for power intensifies -> counter-elites rise to challenge system -> social instability. Revolutionary situations often arise when counter-elites ally with poor members of population to overthrown old elites, often resulting in purges. These epochs last roughly fifty years.

[@charlottegoldman3580]

Oooo crowd sourced history -the Baltic Crusades and how the idea of a holy land can be a fallacy if your religion's goal is conversion -Gobekli Tepe and how nomadic people sometimes have settlements(?) where they converge for religious practice or trade or who truly knows rn what GT was used for. -Alexander the Great and the wars of the Diodochi after his death. Massive empires being torn asunder due to the death of the unifier and how that creates ripples through modernity. -the rise of Islam. A new powerhouse religion appears in a region that doesn't agree with that faith and also has a nearby powerhouse faith to contend with

@@Stoneworks 8 million starve in the capitalist world... every year. And notice that the first two were the last famines in those states? Imagine that, where famine had been a common thing, for hundreds of years, again and again, then one socialist reform of agriculture later, boom, the famines just ended, amazing that.

[@alehaim]

@@PowersOfDarkness Capitalism has its problems definitely as the incentives it creates economically do cause hunger, yet at the same time generally speaking communism when implemented creates much higher chance of people starving to death due to radical policies which in the desire to control agriculture lead to millions dying when it wouldn't have occurred under a more moderate free market where growing food is incentivised by the farmers gaining more money by growing more food. Meanwhile both capitalist and communist countries will just suffer roughly equally from natural disasters and more. Communism necessitates an extractive agricultural system where the state controls the means of food production, while a free market economy is inclusive through having both the people, farmers and states all benefit from a system that rewards creating enough food.

A bunch of elites start buying once good farmland that's being sold cheaply due to neighboring kingdoms invading and destroying it, but after central authority is restored they become lucratively wealthy on their now massive estates -- Byzantine history, and specifically how the Komnemos dynasty rose to power (they were some of the estate owners).

[@rasheikbeal9367]

the statue that look like kali were is it from

[@DieJacke]

Event: A small citystate focuses on trade, this creates a powerful merchant class that turns the government into a republic. Suggested Context: The city needs coastal access, the region needs to be rather disunited because strong empires are such a threat to citystates that the leader will enjoy a rally around the flag effect. Inspiration: Venice and the other Italian sea-republics, Athens and the other Greek cities, Cartage and the other Phoenician citystates.

[@DieJacke]

Event: A nations conquests are administered in a way that benefits the elites who turn the state ultra-militaristic as a result. Suggested Context: This also works without actual conquest if the elites profit from raids during wars or profit from the arms industry or profit from the increased power of the military as a result of wars. There has to be a way to create Casu Belli though. Inspiration: Ancient Rome (agriculturally and through provincial bureaucracy titles, conquests boosting the general`s political career), several medieval kingdoms (extra crownland or colonies strengthening the position of the king), Dictators who`s power depends on the relevancy of the military, United States of America where corporations of the military-industrial-complex give the congress good financial incentives to go to war.

[@DieJacke]

Event: After a political, religious or cultural split the different factions are each others arch nemesis because they consider each other the biggest threat to their identity or legitimacy, after a few decades or centuries when the dust settles they recognize their shared values/heritage and become "best buddies". Suggested Context: The split needs to be accepted as permanent, i. e. not like the Koreas. Contact with third parties has to exist to bring the old enemies together again. Inspiration: West Rome & East Rome, Catholicism and Orthodoxy, Catholicism and Protestantism (at least in Europe), even Christianity & Judaism, Britain and the USA, German Empire and Austria-Hungary, all member-states of the EU with each other (France and Germany for example), and potentially Iran and Saudi-Arabia in the future.

[@DieJacke]

Event: A federal state without strong central control loses unity and their geopolitical opponents abuses this by allying with some factions inside the federation with when prevents/vetoes unified action against this opponent. This may lead to the dissolution of the federation after a military or diplomatic defeat. Suggested Context: There need to exist strong and distinct factions inside the federal state. Inspiration: Holy Roman Empire (mainly France under Luis XIV., to some extend Sweden), Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Maratha Confederation (British East India Company)

[@DieJacke]

Event: Racist oppression is overthrown, but counter-racism flourishes. Suggested Context: The regime-change has to be hard-fought in a bloody war, radicalizing the oppressed. Inspiration: Haitian revolution, Zimbabwe, civil wars in Ruanda and Burundi.

[@DieJacke]

Event: Punishment becomes so widespread that protesting against it will be punished, as result people abuse this punishment against their enemies. Suggested Context: The political and religious system needs to be very authoritarian and dogmatic. If the belongings of the executed go to the state this can also really motivate more murder (like some roman emperors). Inspiration: Witch hunting, Stalin's Purges, Auto-genocide under Pol Pot, Holocaust, French revolution under Robespierre, Zhu Yuanzhang's Purges

A minor political figure takes an existing technology and pushes it to its logical endpoint, and ends up winning conflicts so convincingly that everyone around him begins copying his technique. This technique ends up defining an entire era of political development, long after the original popularizer's family has died out. + Fulk the Black, the guy who made castles a vital part of European geopolitics for 500 years. + Shang Yang, whose reforms in the state of Qin allowed it to conquer China and become the blueprint for all future dynasties to work from. + The 1st chanyu of the Xiongnu, who created the first example of the _khaganate,_ a political system that would dominate the Eurasian steppes for 1500 years.

Lemme add something to the chart. A giant boulder falls down into a well and blows up the entire town's water supply. This leads to a single individual, know as "Marky Marcus Aurelicoos" to use his well in order to corner the town's water market and become rich, he declares himself the "Markos Aurelickuz, Throat King, Destroyer of Beds". Markos Aurelickuz then goes into the next town over and tries to get everyone else involved in his plan, but it doesn't work because they ALREADY have a Throat King, Destroyer of Beds, nammed Danny. Danny and Markos Aurelickuz then get into a water balloon fight, which Markos obviously wins (because Danny's a little jack off) and he claims the town as his own. He then digs a tunnel singlehandedly mind you, meaning he used one hand while he was playing Minecraft PE on his ipad in the other, from his home town to this neighboring town, which he then has drug traffickers pay to use so they can fraffick drugs into the town he owns. This secures his legacy as a really well liked guy, and someone who will be admired and read about in school books and comic books for years. This is based off the 2016 presidential El
