Thanks for your inclusion of Teuta's story in these geopolitical affairs, but I would beg to differ in some conclusions you made, Ardiae did not occupy Epirus, because the fact that they were Illyrians is scientifically proven! The tendency to hellenize the balkan is unfair! Illyria was a "confederacy" that included territory from Dardania to Daorsi, and South of Corfu! Internal affairs of princess Teuta were an attempt to unify the Illyrian territory and to disperse Grecco-Macedonian Influence from the south-east.

[@Sealdeam]

That's something they could had learned from one of Rome's most constant enemies the Samnites; once, in their many wars, they had surrouded a roman army the samnite leader was adviced by his father to destroy them or let them free unharmed, this way they would either promote goodwill, friendship and peace or would close that door forever but would greatly damage Rome's capacity to wage war, he instead took a third path, he let them free but only after he humilliated the romans by forcing them to crawl beneath some spears or sticks as sign of submission, thus he achieved a combination of the worst possible outcomes of the options his father presented to him, he infuriated the animal and did not even damaged it.

Me too...such great work

[@ignacio.carral]

As a historian working on the period, I must say I'm very impressed with the Channel's high-quality research. Some minor comments: 1) amicitia does not necessarily suppose a patron-client relationship (see Burton's criticism to Badian's classic 1958 work). 2) Demetrius' pillaging expeditions were mainly directed South and East against the Greek shores of the Ionic an campaigns. 3) I would love to see a later video covering the 211/05 campaigs, riddled with fascinating historiographical questions: Livy becomes the main source here, replacing the lost Polybian parts, but there's much we can know from him about Roman movements.

[@eeec7]

Historian? That’s very good to hear.

[@Roman_History_fan]

Hi, if you are a historian could you answer me, if you want, the following question: I am rewatching the series and I have a question. It is said here 2:48 that Illyria was made of different small tribes ruled by chieftains, but on the map are only two tribes, the Daorsi and Ardiaei, that weren‘t small. Were there 2 main tribes which were subdivided in many small tribes with their own chieftains?

[@ignacio.carral]

@@Roman_History_fan Hi! The Ancient Illyrians were divided in several large tribal states by this period, the Ardiaei, the Daorsi, the Dalmatae, the Histri, the Dardani and others that do not appear on the map. Their identities changed throughout these period as they interacted with foreign cultures, like the Celts, who migrated to the region around the 4th century BC, and the Greeks and Romans. Each large tribal group was loosely ruled by a chieftain or king. Teuta's case seems to indicate that rulers had a very limited authority over their own subjects, and piracy was freely practiced among them, probably favoured by the geography and customs. However, it is worthwhile noticing that all the historical sources belong to hostile Greeks and Romans, like Polybius and Appian, who seem to have considered them as utterly barbaric and uncivilized, so most of what we can infer from the literary record needs to be considered with utmost caution. If you want to learn more about the Illyrians, I suggest you get John Wilkes' book, "The Illyrians", published in 1996.

[@Roman_History_fan]

@@ignacio.carral thank you very much. The ardiaei were powerful like the map indicates, but in the north wasn‘t the daorsi but the dalmate and where they put the dalmate were the iapodes and the liburni, right? And after the third macedonian war the kingdom of Genthiud was conquered, but he was only the king of the remaining territory of the Ardiaei right?

What would you do if you politely asked a chihuahua to stop biting your ankles and if it doesn't, then you will kick it and make it stop? Rome had the courtesy to ask them to stop pirating their merchants and raiding their coastal towns before taking action.

It might have been a bad friendship, but it was a lot better than being an enemy to Rome. And not to mention, Rome did actually have a reliable track record of going to war to defend such allies and protectorates, at least during these time periods; so they weren't nothing to them.

Every video clearly states that the ancient macedonians were Hellenes (Greeks) unfortunately you still get these slavic icognitoBulgarians trolling and insisting otherwise..

[@vaeldrnero6251]

As a Bulgarian it’s ridiculous listening to the claims of the North Macedonian government. Of course Ancient Macedonia was a Hellenic kingdom. And of course modern Macedonians are just Bulgarians. But maybe some insight could be provided on this. After the second Balkan war many territories which were inhabited by Bulgarians were split among their neighbours. For example modern Northern Greece including Thessaloniki was an area where both Bulgarians and Greeks lived. European Turkey was also mostly inhabited by Bulgarians. Macedonia was a different story however. The population there was virtually all Bulgarians but the land was part of Serbia. And the Serbs did not like this. So what did they do? The government under Tito started an aggressive brainwashing campaign where they convinced the locals of a fake history. They essentially stole Ancient Greek history and Medieval Bulgarian history, combined them and essentially made up a nation with stolen history.

[@vaeldrnero6251]

Emerald Dragon Gaming First of all it doesn’t really matter what Bulgars were. The fact is that the modern Bulgarian population is most closely related with other Mediterranean Europeans such as Greeks and Italians. Genetic research also disproves the Turkic theory of Bulgar origin. The truth is that we actually have no idea who the Bulgars were - we even don’t know if they were an ethnicity of a confederation of different ethnicities. The Turkic theory has pretty much been disproven. But again - it doesn’t really matter. Even if they were Turkic they were far too few to have any lasting impact. The only thing left from them is the name Bulgaria. Modern Bulgarians are just Thracians.

The rise of Rome is always the best since they were a republic (even if it was questionable how democratic it was) and no one really believed that they could do it right until the moment they came to dominate the Mediterranean. People should have probably realized that Italy is actually kinda large and already at this stage Rome was a major power. But that's why it's great, you always love an underdog. Also Rome at this time was conducting diplomacy in a thoroughly modern way, like they were doing things that we can relate to these days. They sent out military expeditions, they weren't just going out and conquering land, and they had diplomacy based on spheres of influence and economy, and well they were a republic. Again even though they might not have resembled modern democracies it's clear that they still functioned in a similar way. What's new is old.

Hello. In the map (1:44), at Hispania, the Cantabri are in a wrong place. In that place, actual Catalonia, lived the Ilergetes. The Cantabri lived at the north of the Astures. Greetings and thank you for your videos.

[@MalayArcher]

jaume thanks. That will be corrected in the next episode.
