I have heard of this. i will have to find a video that explains it and react to it.

And that was the time when there was no such constitution in European countries, and in America Indians were still being killed on a large scale, and African people were sold as slaves.❤️​@@MrGiant

​@@MrGiant Well how funny it is to not mention in this video that this happen also during what was known the Northern Crusades and was kinda part of it. Spreading Christianity to pagans... yea. Or that Slavs them selves took slaves as did Vikings - also from Finland and Finno-Ugric tribes in general during period between say from 800 at least to early 1700's - the Greater Wrath occasion being the last one of those events in church records. And yea - by then - they most certainly were making slaves out of also Christians in Russia - cause they had land slavery in existence until early 1860s. Even if it was first all part of the massive competition between Western Catholic church and Orthodox Church about how far they could manage to spread their faith. No, I don't claim that the slave trade has this origins, but it sure became part of it - cause well it had been going on even earlier. And yea sure Slavs had to put up also with Mongolian invasion. But funnily the video did not mention Caffa slave markets, which were located at Crimean shores, northern parts of Black Sea, where from they sold slaves south of Black sea, while also it was the end part of the Northern side of the Silk Road. It is similar over looking, if in this case due lack of much of data about it all online - as would be not mentioning the reality that it was black Africans who sold other Africans into slavery, when those slaves were taken from there to Americas. I mean, white man could not even go very deep within the continent for some time, because of certain illnesses that were common due mosquitoes bites and for which there was no cure at the time. And locals had been trading in slaves for ages by then anyhow - taking people from enemy villages or such tribes who could not defend against it. No I was not joking about that illness thing either. Apparently locals had better resistance for it. According to my old history text book slave trade had been going on in Africa the same as gold and ivory trade too. African pirates would even raid Mediterran cities and European ships, even sailing up the Atlantic coast and even ending up to raid villages in Ireland. And yes they took slaves. So no, it was not just selling possibly slaves through Europe from Slavic areas to where ever - that's almost more far fetched than, the older already well proven things I have here mentioned. (As a side note, Caffa was buy the way the very city were from in 1346-9 - 1352 lasted Black Death got on the ships to arrive into Southern European ports and thus spreading all over. And this trade was happening right in front of the Christian traders who came there for what ever one bought from Silk Road products at this norther most end port where that famous trading route ends at.) Nor can we ignore that it was white Brits who first abolished slavery, then you Americans, again lead by white actions - fighting the civil war over it. Never mind the reality that for example American ships and Swedish ships fought together against north African slaver pirates, at some point after that particular war to free them in US. In reality - if we think of modern day - slavery still exists, but namely in non-white regions of Earth, for example in certain countries within Africa of today. Anything from servants to child-soldiers forced into fighting. On the other hand, if we think real far back, like say what is told about slavery in the Bible - while god is but a fairytale to explain what people did not understand or know about before - it does record pretty well about how tings were ages ago. And yes it there states, even gives instructions, claiming those to be from god - as to how one is to do about slaves, what short of rules are about keeping them, where to get them, for how much and as to what sort of rights there are regarding to them. Either it is 'god' actually allowing slavery even endorsing it or then it was someone who decided that it's easier to keep slaves if one writes into the 'unchanged holy book' that god has so ordered. As someone in another a video said, about along these lines - slavery was in antiquated world such common that it was viewed as natural, even if that is not the case. The whole concept of human rights or even just that people have equal value is very new - and no - indeed no, slavery was perhaps in US related to 'race' which itself is invented word for which there is no biological basis. Skin tone is just about how much melanin we have and how much our forefathers have needed it due where ever they lived at. Other physical traits are but variety within species. Just think of dogs for a while. Most of those puppies are very different by breeds and mostly still able to breed between each other, which in general is relative good indicator for being of same species. There are no races of dogs, nor cats for that matter. Basically even 'cultivating' the whole concept is NOT allowing racism to lay to it's final rest, because - like said biologically and scientifically races do not exist. And no - slavery was not originally in any way related to what one looked like. The reasons pointed out in video are far more accurate to explain about it in the scale of wider world. And to add here - people would generally end up as slaves if their side lost a battle, a war or were simply captured during some raid. Heck sometimes families would indeed sell their own children or siblings into slavery for which ever reasons from inheritage greed to due being too poor to survive otherwise. And yes sometimes it began due depths to be paid, which too is by the way anything but humane. We humans have long been the wolves towards each other, that is impossible to deny. But you should absolutely not assume that Slavs did not participate in that trade themselves, or that they did not keep or capture slaves themselves. Land slavery was abolished in Russia only in early 1860s - and NO that is not the same even as what was the way western Europeans had serfs during medieval times. And yes, they would hold then Christian slaves too. Catholic and Orthodox churches did not get along that well, especially not so during the medieval times. Now that said, I am not very surprised that the video says nothing about Finns or Finno-Ugric peoples too (in no way related to Slavs) getting enslaved by the Slavs - because that history has very little material to be found about in English, even if those events from for example early 1700s have been recorded also in church books.

Bullshit. Slavic hunger from equal rights and freedom came from their nacional awakers influenced by western philisophy of enlightment and humanism. These awakers idealized Russia (only one not oppresed slavic nation ať that time) but Russia has always been country of opression not influenced by western humanism. Some of these awakers realised their mistake.

Поздрав брате.. Није ни данас ситуација ништа боља

@@nebeskivuk da brate! Srbija zna! Bombone ili bombe? Svi su želeli bombone, al dobili bombe!!!

Slažem se,se strinjam.Another greeting from Slovenija.

Its very similar in Polish language when we consider Slavic languages as easier to understand and we call Germans Niemcy, which means the same as in Serbian language :) Its interesting idea with Serb origins in the word for sickle - I can hear it too this meaning in Serb or Serp - becouse in Polish sickle is called 'sierp' :) Warm Greetings from Poland :)

@@TallisKeeton If you look at Nestor's chronicle from the 11th century, he wrote there,, And we went from the Dunaja " - (Danube). it also includes Poland - Poljani , in the Serbian language it refers to people who live and work in the fields ( polje., Polish and Serbian are more similar than Russian and Serbian. Both you and us have been forced to believe that we are weak-rooted. And in Serbia there is Vinca, the first smelting of metals and the first modern civilization, and we Serbs have 60% of those genes, and if you take a little interest, you will see that you also carry that gene and that is why Poland is strong, and defiant like the Serbs, blood is not woter. (Krv nije voda). Greetings brother from Serbia and may God protect you!

@@SrceSrbije I knew about Vinca culture from my study of archeology - I was on archeology for 1.5 year but it was years ago. After that I changed to law study and now I m sort of historian of law. So Slavic peoples have also Vinca culture ancestors - nice :) My DNA is like 95% Slavic and 5% Baltic though I made only the cheapest of the tests so it very general view - I think that probably this 5% is connected with the fact that the ancestors of my grandma on my mother's side could lived in 19th and maybe also 18th century around Lithuanian capital area Vilnus and even today I can see on the maps of family names in internet that there are lots of persons with name of my great-granddad in this area :) In recent years I see it more and more than western powers via american popculture (Hollywood, which now is completaly justified to be called Hollyweird) :D always present Slavic cultures, nations, history and myths as backward or marginal, and heroes of Slavic origins in movies are usualy marginal or only showed as bad guys (drunkards, spies, gangsters, tyrants, racists, or simpletons and in costume movies we are shown only as peasants), and we are always somewhere on the margins of their culture. Its irritating. :D what they did with the adaptation of the Witcher books is ridiculous but - in the light of their constant marginalisation of our part of Europe - also appalling. I think that we can count on fingers of one hand all good, nice charachters of Slavic origins who appeared in the last 20 years of biggest American productions. My fav was Jacob Kowalsky from Harry Potter prequel series. Yes I m fantasy genre fan :) and the most freaking tolkienian you probably will meet in the next few years :D But even with my adoration for Tolkien and his legacy the problem of how western popculture shows us is still a problem for me. Krev nie voda :) Stay safe brother and thank you for blessing :)

In old Serbia , servus meant- Greetings, I'm at your disposal, but as a sign of respect .

The Italian "ciao" has exactly the same meaning. It originated from "schiavo".

@@StergiosMekras we also use "ciao" as well in Transylvania, as an informal salute. This is the first time I hear about the resemblance between the two. Very interesting information. Servus!Ciao! to you my Italian brother!

Servus: The Servant/ The serve/ serb Sclavus/ Slave…

​​​​@@MikeBalkanskyyea, right😅the western schooling...You might also say: Brittons, British, brushes.Or maybe: Brit, brutus, brutal. Funny game.

@@MikeBalkansky Great stuff, you are looking in in to name of people based on language that didnt exist at the time (english).. Now using your school teachings, German name comes from germs, meaning fitly, dirty infected people ??? Yea thats it , i solved puzzle of origin of german name

​​@@alexavric1679Brits are a tribe that existed before the english was invented. Brutal came from Brutus who killed his father. But yes , what you mentioned about Germans crossed my mind too 😂👍

@@Forevertrue-z2wI was being sarcastic about where name Germans come from, as that just cross my mind. Point is Serb/Srb/Sorab has nothing to do with later derogatory description of Serbs or other Slovens , to portrait us as almost humans.

@@Forevertrue-z2w pa neznam nekako ne ide ,jasam iz Bitolj Bitola ,mladi beze grad se prazni strasno ,ja se snalazim i ne bezim pa da nemam za hleb 🙋🇲🇰🇲🇰

BS.

ISTINA I

@@KaiHansen-sf1lq Which part is BS !?They are not NATO satelite or they were not conquered by Khazars or maybe they are not Slavic !?

Yes, this propaganda is generally very spread . Tomas Sowell , a sociologist from US use it to justify the slavery in America . He talks about us as slaves who were enlightened by Germans and great western culture. Germans worked in Serbian gold mines in middle ages. "Look what happened to Slaves or in Africa, black people in America had a great time compared to them"- narrative. And many people look at the colour of his skin and swallow the bait.

Yes it is , supported by Anglo-Saxons .They want to emphasize that the civilization came from the West , not the East, which is off course a propaganda.

Thank you for sharing.

It is sad what the children learn from our own history books. When I was a kid , we mostly learned other people's history + Tito, like there was an empty space before he came to rule us all. I strive to teach my own children the real history and show them they have every reason to be proud of their heritage.

Thank you very much. Have a great day.

Thank you very much. Hope you have a great day.

first laws against slavery were made by christian Popes in about 9-10 century. During 7-11 centuries there was this kind of alliance between clergy and aristocratic, rich women (who usualy were victims of robbery and rape and kidnapping for ransom during travels!) to limit slavery esp of women and children and clergy men - and actualy the first laws against slavery were about limit and ban of slavery toward those 3 groups. Why those groups? Becouse the 3 groups were deemed in church laws as "innocents". In medieval law "innocent" was not often deemed as "not guilty" of a crime but generaly as a person who can not protect himself or herself becouse they are not allowed to wear weapons! Innocents mean those who cannot weare weapons - swords. Men can have weapons so they can protect themselves. So as those 3 groups - children, women and clergy men (monks or missionaries) could not wear weapons they were deemed as innocents, so as unprotected and thats why - in time - international law of Popes begun to protect them from slavery, but also from other crimes - rape, theft, robbery. Famous William Wallace was one of the first persons who actualy was executed for WAR CRIMES against civilians. Under not only England's law but also international Church law. The other more protected group who was not to be bothered esp not by slavery and robbery were farming people - not all of them but only those who at the moment are working on a field. those elites knew at least that the law must protect people who grow their food :)

It's all so very interesting, because Christianity was introduced as official relligion in Rome by Constantine the Great and his mother Jelena . Jelena is from Serbia. In fact 1/5 of the Roman Emperors came from Serbia . So, it began here and spread throughout Europe. With the division to Eastern and Western Roman Empire , Serbia took Eastern , off course, the Orthodoxy. Catholic church lost it's credibility with forced expansionism, " sacred wars", intrigues, inquisition, banking and and many crimes against humanity. P.S. - There are good christians among catholics , but the Vatican is a corrupted institution .My mother in law was a very beautiful woman, a catholic from Croatia. When she was a girl many catholic priests tried to persuade her to become a nun. Luckily, she saw through it .

Why I said about 13th century - it was IMO mostly about 13-14 century that even the least advanced and most backyard places in Europe reconfigured their laws in such manner (the earliest such change were made even in 9th century) that what previously was deemed as slave become other kind of dependant but not entirely slave, and slowly it developed into a citizen or into a full subject of the kingdom, and why I think that it was up to the 13th-14th century? Becouse its the same centuries when in history of law we can say about big change of legal systems - such changes that eliminated all remnants of archaic, customary laws of TRIBAL legal systems and installed in most of European countries actual centralised legal systems based on written law (with additions of re-invented, re-discovered Roman law) of king's legal codes. It was the end of tribal law and with it begening of national countries and monarchies and with it the end of slavery - where the kingdom (or princedom or dukedom or Papal Church law, or Germanic ceasars laws) dominated and contributed much to the protection of citizens against slavery. I bet they dont teach it in todays schools :D

@@Forevertrue-z2w I m not sure how your text is in the topic of my text. :) I guess when catholic Church was in the age of its dominion Bysantine Church was in troubles becouse of the advance of islam right?

I reacted o a video about skava, its going up next week.
