This documentary series is gold in itself.

gold doesn't destroy empires. the love of gold does (greed)

It's like solid sunshine you can hold in your hand

Besides an orange. Gold is the only thing called by it's color 🤔

I like counting how many times we hear the narrator say 'gold.'

Always enjoy watching these videos ad free ---

Funny to see all the comments about greed etc yet our entire civilization is built around that very ideology. Everything we do every single day is based on greed and destruction. Recognize we are no different then any of the conquistadors just we dress differently.

Amazing GOLD timelines

Very good interesting documentary really enjoyed the watch wish there was more . 👍

This I another amazing documentary I get to watch.

An a Incan descendant i feel proud to be stacking #Gold & #Silver 👌🏽 taking back what was stolen

The pun in this doc is immaculate... What a GEM!

I am Polish girl which is not so popular to be obsessed by gold, but since i saw the color of 24k . . . . . . . something happened to my soul and brain .. . . .. . I love the beauty I love to wear it ......I love to buying it and look at it . .. . ... ... .... like to me its the best color in the planet even my bedroom is styled by pastels and gold accessories. My passion have started after islam conversion because before I was really stupid its not about following new faith that kinda gone besides few lessions from Islam.... but a gold lesson 101 according to Islam changed my life and perception about silver and gold and finances... Besides that . . . I think I am a lost soul of Kerala village because when I see indian jewerly I am about to faint, coz of its beautifull .... .and the gold souq in Dubai was the best thing I ever seen. . . . . .I just want to owe all what is there

The global quest for “Greed”.

Powerful documentary!! Belize central america I'm from and i know that behind most gold bars is a bloody and cruel story/ past!!🙏🌎💯

Human beings that had no prior knowledge knew that gold was inherently valuable. Ormus or gold in its silica form aka mana meaning “what is it” is the true form of gold is why it’s so valuable

41:58 Isaac Newton became master of the Royal Mint: unexpected but not surprising!

Liers! Your lies about gold being the source of the miseries never end. It’s the other way round. Not having gold as the real money is the source of all the misery!

I look at those children born to the miners in that little south-american gold mine where people desperately cling to survival while ruining their bodies with damaging labor and toxic chemicals and wonder how the parents of those children feel, bringing next generations to the world, condemning them to the same misery and hopelessness. This is nothing but selfish, thoughtless cruelty. If I was a child born there, I'd hate my parents for this.

Interesting information

We all have a deep dreams of gold

Very entertaining.

Now, people are chasing digits in a computer system

Wunderbar!!

KZfaq need to do a sound check on the adds,so loud,great doco though very good

Greed was a powerful driver in the ancient world and remains so today.

They say the love of money is the root of all evil but we see that the words "love" and "money" were pretty much interchangeable in the old world smh

I literally just finished watching part 1. LOL

Very informative!

*Amazing!!!Glad to see informative video, Good work bros!!!*

"there's gold in them there hills"

Love this type of documentaries

May God protect our souls and make us content

and how stunning is a gold souq in Dubai

The spoils of gold ...so also the spoils of war

They forgot to put all the gold Spain got from Puerto Rico and DR...

I think that Spain should be helping to develop sustainable agriculture in some of the areas they basically stole from

how kind

The ring.. OF POWER ...! It must be destroyed where it was made, in the fires of Mount Doom.

Love watching documentaries like this.

It’s a *gold* rush and we are selling the shovels

There is heavy doubt on Marco Polo's Journey. You can not describe his writings as historical evidence.

The way Bernstein pronounces "Gold".... lol

Wow 😲 no entiendo Como el oro vale Como metal precioso Pero mueve montañas...

And that is how u tell a story whilst sticking to the subject the entire time...

The GB Pound was once 'worth' a pound (of gold) as was stated on the note, 'I promise to pay the bearer' This in itself is a blatant lie. This small detail was pointed out in an assembly at junior school at the age of nine or ten. I never forgot the deputy head message, he was angry about this and wanted us kids to know, a good man, but I wonder how many other kids remember? or care

Jeeeezzzasss

Columbus was a convert from a village in Purtugal called Cuba (al-cobba) in Arabic, Culumbus will have know other converts who know about Arabic Maps

As far as Columbus and his relatives... i just wanna know ... is that gal single ? Wow Chris' niece is still fab at middle age... I wanna hug a colum

I would rather have spices! Gold is to heavy compared to spices.

Columbus was left handed?

Did you really leave out the wealthiest man who ever lived, Mansa Musa and how his gold collapsed economies at the time

9:40. The effects of mass immigration. The cost of living goes up, while wages go down.

Which country has the most gold in our time 2022.12.24

The global quest of greed

Hey Timeline! You still don't know which land has a large amount of gold since then?

Gold and Silver have their problems, but I'd say that it certainly has more benefit than a paper FIAT currency based system, that is prone to corruption and manipulation far easier than a Gold Standard. Such is the case for the USA, and the result of people being CONNED by the Central Banking Cartel based on PAPER FRACTIONAL RESERVE CURRENCY. Other Precious metals can always be added to the mix in addition to Gold in the National Vaults as a solid base.

So that is where the NBA basketball team the Clippers got their name. 💵

A quest spurred on by greed

The spois of gold

Far too many ads and the fact it closes iPad down, not worth it, Give up with Timeline docs!

gold for salt?

No mention on king Mansa Musa of Mali....

Speech too soft while music too loud.

No! Peru was not part of Nueva España (New Spain) it was part of the Virreinato del Perú (Viceroyalty of Peru)... so inaccurate!

60 kg of mercury creates 4 g gold ? wow

Good documentary but Columbus primary goal was to find a sea route to India not Japan!

The Ghana Empire and the Mali Empire, in Africa, were the richest empires in the world at their time. These were Africans not Arabs and they had a huge trading route. Everything is done to deny Africans their history it's so ridiculous!!!

"Fair skinned people" (12:00)

God will bless us always with the;beest

Ух,ты!

there was a city?! there was a square?! there was an emperor?! really?!!

3:45.... 100 kenyan note by the second president of the republic of kenya....what is it doing there

I love goooooold! The look of it! The tashte of it! The shmell of it!

City of making gold ??

Amazing, wow. They are really smart. Didn't Africans make their own salt really close to the sub Sahara desert?

GOLD has NOT built or destroyed empires. MAN has. Let’s not be LAZY thinkers. Let’s not remove PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.

Clipping started with Cromwells invitation of Jews back to England

Christopher Columbus was trying to find India but found north America. Where he landed is still know as Indiana and the natives are still known as Red Indians.

They keep showing a map indicating Peru, but it’s Venezuela.

Catalina's y Rodolfo valentino descubrieron las Americas ya los Africanos o el hombre de teorena pelo lacio ya habia vendido al continente...

Have to mention this: there is absolutely ZERO evidence Christopher Columbus was from Genoa. All available evidence points toward him being Portuguese - e.g. him refusing to tell his Children where he was from, and the names of a lot (if not all) the islands he named in the Caribbean are Portuguese names (where it is believed his hometown is Cuba, Portugal - where there is still a statue honouring him as being from there originally!) Also, he was most likely a spy for the Portuguese Empire against the Spanish Empire ("Castile") - as he seems to have helped the Portuguese get the original dividing line, ~100 leagues West of the Cape Verde Islands, of the Treaty of Tordesillas (initially in 1494 by Pope Alexander VI) moved further West (by Pope Julius in 1506) to ~370 leagues West of the Cape Verde Islands (to ~46°30′ W), helping the Portuguese Empire secure Brazil (apparently it was already known that gold was there), as the Portuguese would have dominion over everything East, and the Spanish Empire would have dominion over everything West, of said line, that was not already occupied by Christians.

What is Matt looks so different here than how he does currently did he lose weight?

Goad LOL

We need order and stability from this fiat currency that we're now in trouble with ...

So this is a documentary of the greatest robbery on earth... They even decorated their churches with stolen gold.😐

4gram of gold for 20-30 kilos of ore is a bit much

Solo miren enke condisiones tienen aún trabajador mucha pobresa para el trabajador noapresiar akien le trabaja entre más tienen más kieren eso tendrá ke canbiar

👍🏻⚖

So the good news is they took all that stolen gold back to Spain and then killed each other over it.

Timeline how do you tell a 2 part story about the Power of Gold & not mention Mansa Musa? Very bad taste I must say…

ou,us did discover America he never set foot on orth america, he found Jamaica

The Golden Fleece was grain....and will be again...you cannot eat gold

I enjoy documentaries like this but your captioning sucks maybe someone should better edit them before turning them out captioning

Greenbacks

You couldn’t be more wrong about the importance of gold to the ancient and modern empires of west Africa which were built solely on trade of gold. Give Africa its due credit and visit the land to learn of our history instead of publishing conjectures in your ill informed documentary. Learn about the Old Ghana, Mali and Songhai empires. Learn about the Ashanti empire. All built on the exploits of gold. Gold as an entity is the most important element known to west Africans other than Spirituality.

Please tell me why the arabs used the same system as the Maori
