Nice video! What is the background music you use at the start of the video? I tried finding it myself but haven't managed to do so lol.

Are there only going to be two episodes left?? WE need more videos!!!!!!!!

[@kevinelruler]

Thamls for putting in so much love into this series. Looking forward to more vids.

[@odenetheus]

This is the by far best overview channel ever. You're the perfect complement to Flashpoint History and his insane in-depth videos on minutiae (I love the 8-hour series on a single emperor), and it's my dream to one day listen to a collaborative series where you create a long overview and he creates in-depth videos about the most notable people mentioned in the long, delightful overview.

Thank you for your videos. Your maps are really top notch. So much of modern day conflict can be traced back to the borders drawn by colonialist powers after WWI.

I like the same soothing music you use for your background, it's great. Please try not to change it too much if that's viable.

[@sucramyalcin]

What happened to the Assyrians? Do they strive for autonomy today?

[@JojoBojob]

They mostly live in the diaspora, in places such as Sweden (Södertälje) and US (Chicago). There are some left in the middle east, but since middle east isn't very stable, they, just like most other minorities, are not exactly coming by. However, since the end of 2023, the Kurdish led administration in North East Syria, formerly known as Rojava, did make their language co-official with Kurdish and Arabic, which marks the first time that happens in a long while. In Iraq, they're mostly clustered around the Nineveh governate, but since Iraq itself has become nothing more than a Shia puppet-state, most of their assets villages are threatened by Iran backed Shia militias, which is also true for most of Iraq.

[@shzarmai]

25:04 Wow... back when the redcross meant something. Back when compassion existed in the hearts of our leaders. Cursed modernization and plots, conspiracies, rights & rituals!¡! Once upon a time good existed in our hearts on equal measure to our avarice and greed !!! Long gone and in the days of yore...

[@ASlickNamedPimpback]

youre not that old mate

[@agxryt]

Sorry, but this isn't true. Greed certainly has flourished in our day, but so has compassion. This kind of outlook is disrespectful to the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of people who do charitable or non-profit work. Not just helping people, but trying to save the planet. It's also dismissive of the social welfare a lot of more advanced societies have created. Years ago, being disabled basically meant you would be a beggar. Get into debt? You can't declare bankruptcy - you become a slave. Medicine. Millions of people working incredibly hard to treat patients, develop medicine, study infectious disease etc. Not all healthcare/pharmacy workers, but many, many. Like the WHO, etc Peace organizations, like the UN or even local chapters. What you're seeing is probably just a skewed view from the malicious news cycle. Or you're mad people are progressively stepping away from superstition and religion. But make no mistake - people are better now, overall. Think of the slave trade, and how repulsive most people worldwide now consider slavery

The Balfour Declaration was one of the worst tragedies of the 20th Century.

[@SkyGlitchGalaxy]

Must be real easy to sleep at night, always having someone to blame for everything.

[@nicbahtin4774]

What the Balfour declaration actually did ? The British were actually preventing Jewish immigration not encouraging it. And there already was Jewish population in israel. Some declaration wasn't going to change anything on the ground. Just like some treaty doesn't going to change anything.

[@EarthForces]

The ideal ending would be an independent Kurdistan, a Hashemite Arabia, probably no Israel as it will be a dominion mandate.

I know you are British and don't speak French, but your overreliance on British sources is very much introducing a bias to your narrative. (Brits are good guys, French VERY BAD) You really should do better.

[@JabzyJoe]

I think if you compare the French in Syria, compared to the British in Jordan, or the French in Algeria, compared to the British in Egypt - their colonial policies were very different.

[@berkhan1064]

@@JabzyJoe even if that is true. It is important to incorporate different sources, and not only the British ones. If you quote a British officer, maybe show a counter view? I know you do that sometimes, but not enough in some vids.
