“Surely he won’t build a giant wall blocking our migration. Next week, Caesar will build a giant wall blocking the migration of the Helvetii.” Amazing delivery on that one.

These narrations are so good I feel like I am listening to the lectures in a private elite academy of my parent's generation: something from over 80 or 90 years ago. But I don't have the stomach for the bloodbaths and genocide. But it is amazing to hear the heavy lifting required to build the ancient world and the foundations of modern Europe. .We never learned much about tactics or warfare during my entire education in public schools but I did look on my own almost like it was forbidden knowledge. I think that is because we lived in the world with nuclear weapons and the schools did not want to encourage this kind of thinking. But at 70, I can hear this now and am not as inclined to be motivated by it.. I learned something years ago from an online conversation. The commenter claimed that the Romans liked to age their wines in lead lined copper pots to smooth them. I guess it took the acrid taste from some of the vintages. It wasn't the lead plumbing , where the water is in constant motion, but the leaded wine that would have given them brain damage. I suppose it affected the wealthy more than the poor. The Roman aristocracy doesn't sound too smart most of the time and they seem to lack emotional self control.

About 40 years ago that whole set was a Book of the Month club freebe with membership. I've never read it all the way through but use it more for quick reference. Now that I'm so much older I can appreciate how well written it really is. Gibbon now seems hard to read because of his 18th century habit of using flowery double negatives. I tried reading a random paragraph a few nights back and could barely get the meaning.

A lot of these problems could be prevented if the optimates/republicans would have been more compassionate towards the poor and non-romans. They were so obsessed with tradition, they failed to use common sense. The use of slavery is just devastating toward not only the slaves, but also the working poor. There are so many parallels to American history, it's incredible.

It was my understanding that, when Bibilus used the stall tactic of declaring all of the remaining days for the rest of the year to be holy days, Caesar was able to use his authority as Pontifex Maximus to declare that the Gods wouldn't actually mind if he were to carry out his proceedings on their holy days. Any truth to that?
@-timaeus-9781
@-timaeus-9781 8 жыл бұрын
It seems like something Caesar would do given the martial nature of his character. The roman calendar wasn't quite as fixed as ours is today and they were known to have lengthened and shortened the year and the like to have a desired political effect. Like declaring every day of November this year a holy day to Jupiter to delay the elections for example. Juilius would have the kind of man that said, "To hell with that", and would have went ahead with it anyway.

I think the guitar solo is from a group called Festivus Maximus and the Gladiators. I believe they used to play to sold out crowds at the Circus Maximus on weekends until Cato & others from the stodgy old Senators crowd cracked down on modern music as being subversive to Republican values. Then they fled to Gaul and became the first troubadours.

Byzantium was colonized by the Greeks from Megara in 657 BC, and remained primarily Greek-speaking until its conquest by the Ottoman Empire in AD 1453. Also look up the ancient Anatolian Kingdom of Pontus, Greeks from the Black sea. A blend of Greek and Persian influences. Yes, Greek identity can challenge any Ukrainian Ethnic groups and prove Greeks were in the Black sea far before any Slavic ethnic group existed. What is commonly called the kingdom of Pontos flourished for over 200 years in the coastal regions of the Black Sea. At its peak in the early first century BC, it included much of the southern, eastern, and northern littoral, becoming one of the most important Hellenistic dynasties founded before a successor of Alexander the Great. It also posed one of the greatest challenges to Roman imperial expansion in the East. Not until 63 BC, after many violent clashes, was Rome able to subjugate the kingdom and its last charismatic ruler Mithridates VI, who proved to be as formidable a foe to Rome as Hannibal. He has been called the greatest ruler of the Kingdom of Pontus. He cultivated an immunity to poisons by regularly ingesting sub-lethal doses; this practice, now called mithridatism, is named after him. After his death, he became known as Mithridates the Great. And after the full of Rome by the Germanic tribes and mercenaries from the far East of Asia that murdered most of the Romans and destroyed and looted Rome. Some Romans managed to flee to Byzantium and were saved by the Greek Royal Guards of Byzantium. The same Greek Royal Guards of Byzantium who trained the Anglo-Saxons from England, after they fled England from the Normans. The popes are not even Roman, that's why popes don't have last names. Poverty-stricken like one of many barbarians that invaded Europe was Odoacer, the Germanic king of the Torcilingi, and he self-proclaimed himself as the new Roman emperor and he embraced everything Roman and Greek. So the Roman state continued and some of its traditions were maintained, modern historians distinguish Byzantium from ancient Rome insofar as it was centred on Constantinople, oriented towards Greek rather than Latin culture and characterised by Orthodox Christianity. And Greek history records show that the Germanic tribe's were given the Netherlands and not Europe. Germanic peoples are nomadic like the Turks and British. There's an intelligent documentary in English to be made about Byzantium culture, and this isn't it. History is way more clear with a Hellenic classical education, and someone who speaks like a native Greek and not as an outsider/foreigner who learned Greek. Dionysius Pyrrhus requests the exclusive use of Hellene in his Cheiragogy: "Never desire to call yourselves Romans, but Hellenes, for the Romans from ancient Rome enslaved and destroyed Hellas." And George Gemistus Plethon pointed out to Constantine Palaeologus that the people he leads are "Hellenes, as their race and language and education testifies". Ducas Vatatzes, wrote in a letter to Pope Gregory IX about the wisdom that "rains upon the Hellenic nation". He maintained that the transfer of the imperial authority from Rome to Constantinople was national and not geographic, and therefore did not belong to the Latins occupying Constantinople: Constantine's heritage was passed on to the Hellenes, so he argued, and they alone were its inheritors and successors. His son, Theodore II Lascaris, was eager to project the name of the Greeks with true nationalistic zeal. He made it a point that "the Hellenic race looms over all other languages" and that "every kind of philosophy and form of knowledge is a discovery of Hellenes […]. What do you, O Rome, have to display?" No other small country can compare with Greece in terms of impact on human benefit. In the beginning... God created the Earth, and in the light blue waters, put a small ship to travel forever, in order not only to give birth but also to transfer great ideas all over the world ... He called that ship...HELLAS! The Greeks created it, the Germans copy it, and the English exploit it. The only good is knowledge, and the only evil is ignorance. Herodotus

Did he *really* confuse the car company Subaru and the Suburra, a district of Rome? Could anyone who's dedicated themselves to a long project on the history of Rome make an error *that* moronic without realizing it? Apparently so.

For a long time he kept saying pleebs rather than plebs, he's obviously not concerned with the details, it's big picture stuff and given that this is part 8 of what? 36 parts? going all the way up to 476 I think he can be excused.

Why do Historians always revise population numbers. As if a general could not in a glance of an eye perfectly assess the number of men he faced off against? That is life or death assessment right there. Also boasting larger numbers made your slave haul look puny. So the incentive would be to reduce the estimate to make the slave haul look reasonable if not awesome.

Glad you like the series! :) I tried to use different maps as time progressed through the narrative. After the empire reached its greatest extent I started using images of the emperors themselves. Now I wonder if I should have done that from the beginning. I used this one several times since it is a good map of the empire focusing on the areas that were spoken of in the video.

Marius defeated the Germans not Gaul, it was three German tribes that invaded Rome totaling about 300 000 ,about 113 BC in which Rome lost 85 000 at the battle of arezio ( sorry i don't remember the spelling of that battle) the Germans then went to Spain later returning 101 BC that led to their demise all but 10k Germans were killed making Marius the savior of Rome

“The family of my aunt Julia is descended by her mother from the kings and on her father’s side is a kin to the immortal gods. For the Marcii Reges go back to Ancus Marcius, and the Iulii, the family of which ours is a branch, to Venus. Our stock therefore has at once the sanctity of kings, whose power is supreme among mortal man. And the claim to reverence which attaches to the Gods who holds sway over kings themselves.”
