Plus theyd have to deal with the navy and airforce the whole way over not counting our allies as well. all air and naval forces of opposing countries would be decimated by superior us numbers and tech. also nuclear power itself isnt as much as an offensive weapon as its a deterrent. its a last ditch effort to destroy the enemy when no other options are available. No human that is sane would ever want to see a piece of the world wiped off the map. i wouldnt be surprised if a nuclear weapon is never used in actual warfare from here on out. Also the civilians is just a bonus. But you cant say 250 million people armed with ARs tank planes basically everything the military has wouldnt be a problem? thats a bit of a stretch. Look at any modern military vs guerilla warfare they dont tend to do0 very good. esp in the terrain of the us. invading armies will be traveling through nothing but steep mountains and empty dry deserts full of millions upon millions of guerilla fighters. truly a tactical nightmare for any invasion.

- Watch my latest history documentary here:- kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mZl4pJmGxqy1oZ8.html It's been a while since I've done a Romans video. So naturally I decided to tackle the most challenging of all subjects. The Fall of the Western Roman Empire. This is going to be a lengthy series, probably taking years to fully finish, but eventually we will follow the Goths along with a host of other factions all the way from their early roots beyond the frontier to the deposition of the last Roman Emperor in 476 AD. Hopefully it'll tie in nicely to my other videos on the early Middle Ages.

There's a great doc here on YT about how malaria contributed to the fall. It came on the ships crossing the Med from north Africa, first devastating key agricultural communities on the coast. With no one to work the fields, food shortages were the immediate effect, especially for the Legionnaires. As we know from Napoleon, armies march on their stomachs. The disease quickly spread north, and they were helpless against it. It killed ruthlessly, no respecter of persons or class. This is a relatively new discovery, but they've found quite a bit of supportive evidence. It makes sense that some outside force was working against the mighty Romans, to cause such a fall to technologically inferior people. It was said when Rome fell, it was like the mother of the earth had died, that's how far reaching their influence was. Fascinating topic, I wonder what civilization's fall will be studied 1000 years from now, though I'm sure they'll still be scrutinizing the Romans as well.

Carlo Troya historian from 1784-1858 and Prime Minister of two Sicilies Kingdom in his book Hystory of Italy in the Middle Ages (8700 pages) more than 3500 pages are about the Goths. In volume II (1) Eruli e Goti he published an Appendix, Fasti Getici o Gotici (A Getic or Gothic History), volume II(2) contains another annex, Paralipomeni a Fasti Getici o Gotici (Daco-Getae-Normand Facts), basically dismantles the greatest error of ancient history (Tacitus and Pliny the Younger), namely that both branches of Goths, the Visigoths and Ostrogoths were of Germanic origin. While the Geto-Goths were guided by the harmonious Belagine laws inspired by Deceneus, Germanic tribes used a method of pricing a person in case of reward, guidrigildo or wergild, a savage procedure in Geto-Goths view. Also were very different in language, building knowledge of architecture, music, medicine, etc. But Goths incorporates in time some Germanic tribes like Vandals and Borgognons. Not to mention the Caracalla edict from 209-211 after murdering his brother Geta along with other 20k supporters, that damnatio memoria of the name Geta, Gete was forbidden to use so Geta, Gete became Goth.

I love gothic architecture too! However, I would want to point out that it has approximately as much to do with the actual Goths as the modern subculture has. The term originated in the Renaissance as a derogatory one - basically dismissing the style of the High and Late Middle Ages as barbaric. This was the beginning of a long process of misappropriating the word "gothic", which started getting weird during the Romanticism.

IIRC the channel TopTenzNet (no affiliation) had an upload within the last 2 weeks about the Google books archives and copyright materials that are soon to expire this year. I imagine there is an enormous amount of potential copyright free artwork available to anyone that is willing to do a bit if digging and research. I'm no expert on fair use or copyright, but as I understand it, any book with a 1923 copyright or earlier is considered public domain. It might be an interesting source of fresh visuals. -Jake

At min. 17:28, 23: 43, 26: 30 you used pictures of the Dacians on the Trajan's column, built by Apolodor of Damascus, at the request of Emperor Trajan. Those are Dacians or geti , not Goths. In 625 spiral images are presented the two wars with the Dacians 101-102 and 105-106. In Dacia the use of the Latin language from then until today continued. Romania remained an island of Latinity in a sea of Slavic peoples. Those who remained north of the Danube were the Dacians and the Roman veterans of the legions of Gemina and Macedonica. Dacians were a name given by the Romans to those who lived in Dacia. The Greeks said Geti to those who lived in Dacia. Some historians have altered a letter, and Geti have become Goti. The Dacians and Getae must be removed from history and replace with Goti ( Goths).

This is a great explanation to why Rome fell under the Goths, these people were way better equipped for conquest now that they settled and prospered in Romanized lands. Essentially, they learned how to transform their way of living from clanship to statehood, paving the way to abandon their raiding mentality and to be replaced by permanent conquest.

@blakops000007 5 жыл бұрын

I think the fall of Rome was caused by over extension and out-dated bureaucracy than it has to do with giving up lands without violence. What I explained, is how the Goths were able to sustain their lands and bureaucracy after they conquered Rome, not why Rome fell.

@wuppas 5 жыл бұрын

By the end of the 1st century AD, Rome was already giving its powers to foreign born emperors, and the army was more and more made up of foreigners.By the 4th AD century the whole empire was run by foreigners, and Italians nowhere to be seen.When the Punic wars were going on in the 3rd century BC, and the Romans suffered huge losses, they did not give up but kept on fighting until victory was achieved.The reason because at that time all the army and roman power system was 100% roman, not foreign born.When the nation gets repopulated with foreigners its inevitable that the empire will collapse.The US and all the western Europe filling up themselves with foreigners will end up in the same way as the ancient romans did.

@Helmholtz You start off by saying Rome fell because they let in foreign influence and then you don't make a single example of it. But you jump straight ahead to give its equivalent in modern times in Europe and the US. Rome did not fall because they let foreign people ( out of a sudden ). They incorporated foreign people since the conquest of Italy and since conquest of Gaul. Everyone knows that any people who are conquered by Rome have to serve in their military ranks and become citizens. So how about stopping this racial sensitivity and realize that your "western civilization" is not going to fall because of people of different color.

The German Goths had crossed the Danube as early as 240 AD. when Gordian III faced them. Their target was the provinces of Mysia, Pannonia and Thrace. In 280 AD the emperor Provos allowed them for the first time to settle en masse in Thrace. 100,000 German Goths then settled there. Their goal in the next century and until 400 AD. was to conquer Constantinople, so they were defeated.

Hello! Just wanted to say thanks for all the time and effort you put into these amazing docs. Just wondering if you have these posted anywhere else? Getting REALLY tired of all the ads every few minutes. That's why I don't watch tv. Thanks!

How can you end with such a cliffhanger sentence and not have #2 following right behind is beyond me.. So frustrating. You have a very good narrative, eh? :-)

I got hooked with those viking videos from history time, i have a son who married a Dane, hence I have three viking gks, so sweet, funny, and clearly, very healthy. like all americans, i can only swallow history and or geography by brit accented narration... but these are so much better than most, the graphics involve MAPs.... which are crucial... I wish the guys (and girls, of course) who do WW2 docus (with the exception of mr TIK, who is generous with his maps) would learn to give more maps as well

The celestial snake, draco, on the shields is Getic, Germanic tribes have nothing to do with it.

You should post a disclaimer in advance "a 50 years old version of history"!

@David Bond The three most important surviving histories of the Goths in late antiquity are those by Jordanes, Isidore of Seville, and Procopius,in these primary sources the Getae /Dacians appear called as the goths and vice versa..modern historians ignore these sources calling them wrong but still use them to build their own propaganda around them for their own nationalistic agenda .

In some sense, the cultural impact of the ancient Romans echoes to this very day. It’s in many of our languages, religions, traditions, and serves as the foundation of modern cities. There was greatness in the human potential of the ancient Romans. We look back on them and realize what humanity can accomplish when we form a civilization that aspires for greatness.

History Time It really is. Also he said that a video about the Bruce will come out this week and from what I've seen so far, the video will be great.

North of Danube River lived the Getae(southern Dacians) or Geti (in romanian)... Get, got... I can understand the confusion.

@arawn1061 5 жыл бұрын

Not to mention the swedish geats that also get confused with the goths. As the geats were from Götaland and the goths from Gotland

I look forward to more, especially the Huns. I liked the way you would show separate timelines of the different characters/peoples. However, sometimes I felt you were repeating yourself. That's just my two cents worth. How do you "acquire" your images? Do you have to pay to use them? Or are they all public domain type things? Thanks.

It would seem that a good historian is a good storyteller. Listening to this video was like listening to a fairy tale or a myth, entirely engulfing. I loved your content, you're great!

Part of the problem for Rome was that, now that they were under Rome's auspices, when Rome called upon them for troops, Rome provided their own arsenals to all those warriors.
