RESOURCE PLANETS - How Can Complex Civilizations Collapse? | Warhammer 40,000 Lore/History

[@Luetin09]

NOTE: Yet another weird video error at 34:44 & 36:42 (nothing I can do about it sadly this must have happened during YT Processing) We look at the Civilian Resources of the Imperium and their importance for humanity's galactic empire. *>>* I have included a section where I consider how a Complex Civilization can collapse - this is in part outside of the lore. 22:46 *If you wish to skip straight to the Planets* As always thank you guys for your continued support. If you enjoy please do hit the Like - and tell me your thoughts below. - - also please note: I can't put an active link to skip the collapse section, KZbin only enables you to do this, or an end section of links.

Fusion reactors can produce any material from any other lighter material and worlds are not needed at all in order to acquire resources. In fact they could support more people in the Terran system alone than occupy the entirety of the Imperium easily. This of course involves real science and not that based in dark fantasy or old, outdated ideas about what the future might look like.

[@mucephi1]

In fact Fusion technology eliminates scarcity entirely.

@Steve Campbell I don't think Lutein's analysis of these topics are very accurate, philosophical or even scientific at times. He makes a lot of real world claims that are just his own opinions or really simplified assumptions. Although he still makes good content and it's clear that he connects the claims / opinions to the grim-dark world of Warhammer in order to make us relate even more to it.

Humanity already suffered a "complex civilization collapse" so devastating it took us centuries to claw ourselves back: the "Bronze Age Collapse". During the bronze age, the most important ressource was bronze (shocker i know). It held the same importance to the civilizations of that time (the egyptians, the assyrians, the hitites etc) as oil to our civilization. But since bronze is an allow of copper and tin (and only the hitites had any tin supplies) they HAD to trade internationally to the point of "our society can't function without this trade". Once that trade stopped due to the turnoil in that period the civilizations of the bronze age (some having stood tall for thousands of years) just simply collapsed within *fifty years*. Within one human lifetime they were gone or so reduced in power and influence to be nearly irrelevant afterwards. Extra History has a series on that topic that goes more indepth than i could do it justice here.

wιѕegυy eh that’s debatable. While the whole world wasnt completely unhinged, especially since the eastern empire survived, the western empire was completely fucked for the better part of 500 years. Most of the turmoil Western Europe would go through over the next 1000 years would have easily been mitigated or avoided completely if the western empire had survived. So short term and wide reaching collapse wasn’t the case there, it was more localized and long lasting

[@Hellsong89]

"safe zone" Aka zombie buffet, also what makes you think there are no infected in front of you? Different incubation times can be widely different depending people, while also its likely those people in front of you were in areas where infection spread trough food, drink, contact with objects or being airborne depending the contagion in question and they manage to get home, pack and get on the road before you. Old folk with lesser resistance would be first victims, while teenagers and young adults would be last to go, with exception of those who can think for them selfs and not panic. Essentially only people alive would be those few who are resistant to contagion, but number of infected and simple hostility of mass will get high majority of survivors killed. I would be surprised if more than few thousand will survive and that number goes down after that to other diseases and injuries over time. Lack of people will be causing havoc as there is no people fixing things and even more get killed. Event like that will be extinction level incident and it might not far away. Think how fast and wide flue spreads... Now there has already been antibiotic resistant bacteria in China due feeding antibiotics of cows to keep them "healthy" in horrid factory farms. There bacteria are also resistant to our plan B drug and we dont have plan C. Now its important to realize that Virus tend to collect DNA from bacteria to gain their abilities... now lets say any of the most deadly viruses happen to collect that plan b resistance from bacteria and become resistant. Wild fire does not describe how fast this would spread and at best few survive even if you have limited contact with people.

Hamarbi Ljungskile ...do you realize a lot of events in the Christian Bible do coincide with other events documented in human history. You’re to trying write off an entire book as a work of fiction (fantasy) just because you don’t believe in that, or any religion. The spiritual truth contained within holy books is debatable, but there are actual events documented in them which are not fiction. A religious text is not able to be categorized as non fiction, or fiction. You can denounce a religion more intelligently than that, come on now.

As someone that helps out on a horse ranch, A feudal world is one of the comfiest places in the Imperium. Especially if you own your own land, work a couple hours a day most of the year then enjoy your Idyllic surroundings then help your neighbors come harvest in fall and sowing come spring. add in the bit of advanced tech the mechanicum sends your way and some light water-powered industry you'd have a right beautiful life.

[@timsearle5837]

You dont own your land in feudalism... not unless you are one of the very lucky few. Serfs were a development of slaves from the classical era... Slaves had more prospects... They could at least hope to buy themselves out of it at some point. A serf was "owned" by the land and that land was owned by your lord. If he was a good lord, u'd still have a hard life, if he wasn't then god save you.

[@semi-useful5178]

@@timsearle5837 First off, Serfs actually had legal rights, whereas slaves had none. They could also buy their own freedom and become a peasant that owned their land as much as a modern man does. The Serf could also run away to a charter city where if he was able to live for a year and a day he would legally become a citizen of that city and therefore free.

[@timsearle5837]

@@semi-useful5178 Not all that true... ur conflating modern slavery with that of antiquity... You couldn't sell a serf, but you could really, cos you could sell his holding. Slaves could buy their way out, making their children free, but serfs and their children were owned by the land. Slaves could become skilled and perform various roles, from charioteers to scribes and everything inbetween, a serf would spend his life grubbing on a piece of land too small to keep him properly. Who do u think set up the 1st feudal systems? It was the romans, to replace slavery.

[@semi-useful5178]

@@timsearle5837 Have you read any actual history? Feudalism arose organically after the mass collapse of the Roman Slave Society. Slaves in Rome, while the could become skilled if their Master wanted to have them trained were still legally objects with no rights, Serfs meanwhile actually had rights and were recognized as people. Regardless, the number of skilled slaves was very small as most were employed in Mines, Galleys, and massive farms. Far more deadly than tending to a garden or the periodic Corvée.

i just thought of a kinda weird but plausible answer to why rebelions against the imperium dont work: the imperium is so big that even if a revolutionary faction was left totally alone it would almost certainly tear itself apart before it could ever be big enough to compete, the imperium only holds itself together because it already has all of these things established and has for a very long time. the imperium wouldnt even need to crush a rebelion because building a "new imperium" (any system of an equivelant scale) would be basically impossible, especially in an environment as rediculously hostile as the galaxy of 40k, without the backing of the empires resources a union of a few dozen systems would surely be eaten alive by the orks or the tyranids or whatever else comes to oppress them in the empires place

[@Luetin09]

Its similar to Star Wars in some respects. Although the movies present this version of events that the rebels 'defeat' the empire, they didnt really, they struck a catastrophic blow several times, but in the original supplementary books - so I am told - the Empire was not really defeated, because its far far too big for a few hundred rebels to break apart something like that. Its really not plausible for a rebellion in 40K to damage the Imperium, at the most it could cause disruption in a system, but as soon as the Astartes get involved, its over.

[@lion6379]

I’ll be honest, rebellions ever successfully overthrowing the Imperium is nigh impossible. Isn’t the imperium literally the whole of humanity? One emperor one religion one purpose kinda deal. One planet or hell a cluster of planets worth of rebels can’t defeat a million planets that belongs to the imperium collective.
