When Rome had 1 million inhabitants and was the centre of the world...Paris and London were just small camps.

Stop with the asmr lip smacking

Rome must have looked beautifull early on, i wish we had time machines ....

Imagine traveling in time and seeing it in all its splendour!

Didn’t know there was going to be added ASMR

Just back from Rome since a matter of hours. My advice to anyone visiting is to consume a lot of historical material before going and then just walking. Found the Trevi fountain by accident. That was nice.

Been to Rome 9 times and thought I had seen it all. Learned some things and wondering if I should go back one more time. Thank you

The eastern provinces were already fully integrated. He moved his capital there for strategic reasons. Emperors has been establishing new capitals for centuries; previous ones in that area were Nicomedia and Nicaea. Constantinople stuck because it was a genuinely strategic location.

They needed those baths. Rome would be like an oven in the summer, with all those stones baking under the fierce Mediterranean sun.

Nicely done. Informative and provides perspective on the times and places of the ruins.

Pretty interesting. Also very moist...VERY moist.

Thank you for the video!

Thank you for your time and effort, Nick, this is informative and enjoyable. Pat

I would have to live in Rome for a few years to enjoy every monument there.

It would be amazing to go back in time and see Ancient Rome in all its splendor. But, I would also imagine that it probably looked a lot different than what we BLIEVE it looked like back then.

Well done on illustrating what these places looked like and how they appear today. I've been to many of them and can't wait to get back, at least after the current crisis is over.

"Rome" *licks lips* "was a city" *licks lips again* "with over 1 mil-" *Licks lips* "lion people"...😂

Very well done! I love Roma! My favorite city in Europa

Roman bathhouses must have been something else.

Great content man! I would love to know more!

The throat noises were a nice touch.

One little correction, Rome touched the population of a million during the reign of Flavian dynasty and 5 good emperors. After that the city suffered nearly a century of warfare, plagues and upheaval after which emperor Diocletian reduced the cities importance as the capital of the empire. After that when Constantine came the city was already well below a million inhabitants (though most probably still the largest in the world) and in less than a century it was sacked for the first time in 800 years.

Thank you, great video, very well made.

Fantastic video! I loved it!

Great video! Thank you very much

This video is very interesting and informative. Thank you so much!

You don't know how much your video hepls me to write my story. Thanx you !!!!

Nice video. Thank you.

Amazing history. BUT Your lipsmaching is so digusting and annoying!!!

great job, nice video

Very nice video thank you so much

I've been inside the castel st. Angelo,and the pantheon, Rome was really something back in the day.

So helpful thank you

Absolutely fantastic video

Constantine declared the refoundation of Byzantium as New Rome. Then people just wound up calling it “Constantine’s city.”

Awesome video, thanks for sharing Greetings from Indonesia 👍👍👍

Great video

Beautiful video

The buildings were colorful and well painted. Weather and Sun bleached them out.

I turned 59 yo yesterday and I would love to be able to spent 2 to 3 months there when the weather is most comfortable to walk with a knowagable guide so I could go back to the time when lots of this was constructed with side trips to Pommpii and *Hurkulaniem* to get a real understanding of what life was realy like back than for the upper class to the every day citizens . Learning how little things have changed by way of how the ruleing class still lives off the backs of the people !

Roma 1000 AUC > Roma 2019

I enjoyed your video very much. I plan to see Rome in November. I don't want to go in summer as it will be too busy. They are putting in a new floor for the Colosseum, so in the future, you will be able to stand in the centre and get a gladiator's view. I think this is a brilliant idea and if it was up to me I would bring it back to its former glory and make it the greatest venue for concerts and the arts in the entire world. It would probably cost billions but so d new football stadiums and imagine how many tourists would come to Rome to stand in the Colosseum in its former glory. It could then stand like that for 2000 more years. Whoops waffled.

I'm home now. Thank you. Philadelphia USA

A really good video which I wish I could of finished, please have a drink next time!

Awesome historical overview and great video footage! Some county or province somewhere in the world has to make a new city completely according to Roman architecture. It musn’t look like a typical Roman colony, but more organic like Ostia, Naepolis, or of course Rome it self. There must be many parks, a large forum and many public squares that can house markets daily, for there must be no vehicles within the city. The city can have everything a modern city has(and indeed what Rome had as well), just with a Roman facade. Offices, bars, bakeries, retail stores even shopping malls could work just a square building with a large garden atrium around which the storefronts would work. I can see myself walking there.

Brilliant presentation and your narration was superb. Your voice is very calming, intelligent and thoughtful. Thank you so much for doing this. I learned quite a bit about Rome thanks to you and your vlog. Kudos to you!

Fantastic!

they should try and rebuild or restore some of that stuff if they can. Those buildiings and monuments look epic and it lood like gods themselves would live in them.

I feel like taking a bath. 😊

Very interesting video

I bang my head today as I was in Rome about 4 years ago and at that time Ancient Rome never had my interest neither did ancient history as a matter of fact. So I only remember the Mausoleum and the colloseum and I didnt even see the colosseum from the inside xC Hope to travel there again someday

Your voice is amazing!!! I mean that honestly and truthfully.

wonderful presentation. you are really good. thanks. make more, please, a lot more

Great commentary! Only 199 subscribers? I’ll make it 200 but you deserve more keep it up this was quality

SPQR SENATUS POPULUSQUE ROMANUS AVE ROMA CAPUT MUNDI IN SECULA SECULORUM.

What a gem this video is 😎

Romans were early christians,Rome was a pagan city,to adhere to christian pricipals,moving the capitol east makes perfect sense.

The Capitoline wolf is an Etruscan brands, but the two babies were added during the Renaissance. Also the "Colloseum" is the Flavian Ampitheatre - the nickname related to the collosal statue of Nero as Helios which was erected on the site of the Domus Aureus with the Ampitheatre built next to it.

The best video

Makes you wonder how advanced we would be now if rome just continued to grow and advance without collapsing. Almost like when looking at the British empire pre WW1/2, they could have ruled the world and perhaps things may have actually been a lot more peaceful than we are today.

Two thousand years later, with computers and advanced architecture techniques AND equipment......the ancients beat us in grandeur and scale.

Despite the haters I love your voice and speaking!!! Total ASMR!!!

What music are you using in the background?

Wow!!! Very nice

4:20 temple of jupitor lol

1:00 To the left, behind the Palatine hill, we can already see the Circus Maximus. In front of the Palatine hill, the lake is where the Flavian Amphitheatre (Colosseum) would later be built (no wonder the arena could be flooded).

Very impressive, the Romans were master builders.

I can hear the sound of the Roman imperial triumphal march while watching these historical achievements

I just came across your channel and love your work! I live in Baltimore, where the Romans came and began recreating the Greek architecture again. Our state holiday is March 25, the day that Constantine became Pope. It was proclaimed a holiday in 1906 after the Great Fire of 1904 consumed the city. Thank you for giving me stories of old world architecture to compare to my city's history :)

Very clearly can one person behind the beauty of the statues of these marvelous works of beauty

The above is a misprint….can one person behold….

Fuck yea man! Appreciate this vid!

Been there a couple of times never enough time in the day to see everything love that city,stay on outskirts in real roman people areas and it is just so much friendlier and cheeper

An excellent video. What were you eating whilst recording this. Sounds to good to be true?

I wish we had time machines I'd love to see Rome and the great battles of Rome.. The armor of the soldiers.. The actual place UGH I WISH I COULD SEE ROME THE MOST AMAZING PLACE MAN ROME IS AWESOME I WISH I COULD HAVE HONOR AND BE A SOLDIER OF PURE HONOR.

Constantine did not rename Byzatin to Constantinople. He named the the new city Nova Roma.

3:26 - Dear, it was 2006 Italy won world cup. And there were over 1 million persons there

Beautiful City!

The old Penn Station in NYC was mentioned as modeled from the basillica of Maxentius. It must be noted it was torn down in 1963 to build the next new shiny thing-- Madison Square Garden arena. It should have been built somewhere else.

There is certainly no contemporary literary or archeological evidence that Peter was ever in Rome - but the Biblical accounts certainly suggest Paul was.

I wish Italy didn't remove the marbles from rhe buildings right after Rome Empire fell on September 4, 476 AD.

Roma seria maravillosa en la época del imperio,de todos modos lo que queda y lo que se construyó después hacen que esta ciudad continúe siendo maravillosa,ninguna capital europea me conmovió como Roma.

Wish we could turn back time, back to the good old days.....

i like this video, at the end its like "if you would like to travel to Rome..." , its march 2021 i would love to travel to Rome and many places :'(

Is this man eating peanut butter during this video?

We will be going soon!!!

"Jupitor". Come on.

The baths of Nero and the Baths of Arippa preceded the baths of Trajan. The baths of Agrippa were bequeathed to the people of Rome upon his death.

Also next time you record something don’t use a condenser mic use a dynamic mic- it sounds like you’re eating spareribs

2:48 they aminals here?

Dudes mouth must be as dry as ever. The saliva smacking really made this video not so interesting.

Was the Circus Maximus really bent on one side like that??? that seems very un-Ancient Roman

Very nice, don't pay attention to the rude commentary, they are just kids, whoever i'm also glad you responded this with more practice :D keep on it !

Look nice beautiful wow

Imagine you see a palace as big as the soccer stadium and it is for bath..

He says Maxtenius, while it's Maxentius. Lol 😁

Human size has not changed for this past 3000 years right? Imagine you come from small city and then moved to this city.. must be mindblowing

Me: wonders if Elaine is still the go to for tours in southern Europe.

I wish this was 45mins...

they should rebuild the colloseum
