      They weren´t unified under a common leader. Buildings 5000 years old were just discovered. Also there are burial mounts dating back 4-5000 years in Pipstorn forest. Just not a lot of people and no real impact on the greater empires, even if trade with romans happened. Some consider the viking age to have started in 793, but there were cheiftans and maybe small kings before that time. Some think the god Odin is based on Atilla the Hun, and the mythic Fimbul Winter was really the years around 536.

    • @Enleuk
      @Enleuk 2 месяца назад +6

      Before 800, Scandinavia was divided into smaller petty kingdoms. Since the Bronze Age, most people lived in Denmark and in southern Sweden, in small farming villages or on large individual farms, located a few kilometers from the coast, near big or small rivers. They believed in local variations of Norse mythology. They very rarely wrote anything down. They traded with other Europeans by sea and sent warriors to fight e.g. during the Hunnic invasion of Europe, not sure on which side though. The local kings fought against other local kings and against Slavic and Baltic raiders and pillagers and some were themselves raiders and pillagers. Some notable Iron Age cities include Lejre and Uppåkra.
      Around 800, the Holy Roman Empire expanded their influence to the north, sending Christian missionaries and picking a local king to support other the other local kings. With outside support, and partly out of fear of the threat of the giant HRE, Denmark united under a single king, as did Sweden. With the Christian clergy writing became relatively speaking more common, which is also why most runestones are from this period, and that's when Scandinavia enters the history books.

    • @TechnoMinarchist
      @TechnoMinarchist Месяц назад +3

      Between 536 AD to the late 700s, Scandinavia was largely in a period of collapse and struggle to survive. This period is called the Late Antique Little Ice Age and was started by a series of volcanic eruptions over a decade in Iceland and the Americas that plunged the northern hemisphere into extremely cold temperatures, reducing crop production and causing the abandonment of many settlements.
      It is very likely that what Norse Mythology calls the Fimbulwinter, and their later Ragnarok, is a mythologisation of this time period.
      This should give you a good idea of what life was like in Scandinavia at this time period.
      The effect this period had on regions south is that it allowed for the spread of the Justinian Plagues, and combined with the lower crops, resulted in anywhere from 25-50% of the population disappearing. This in effect caused Justinian's attempts to retake the Western Empire's lands to fail.

      Good thing they at least signed the white area on the right as Slavs. Because all the countries of Europe knew about them and traded with them for thousands of years. The countries of Europe disintegrated and united, and the white area on the right was always there. Nobody lived there? That's why it's white haha. The people of the north, the Slavs, lived there for thousands of years, with their own culture, rulers, territories, writing, knowledge. Another question is where did the countries of Europe and the people there come from? Was it not from this little white piece of land?

    The Burgundians actually originally lived in Eastern Europe and were an East Germanic tribe, thus related to the Goths. They then migrated to the Rhine, near the city of Worms. There they played a role in the defense against the Huns and are mentioned as a Rhenish population in the Nibelungenlied, an epic poem that was written down in the 13th century but certainly goes back to oral traditions of the 4th and 5th centuries.
    In the 5th century, after the defeat against the Huns, the Burgundians were settled by the Romans in what is now Burgundy (France). This is where the region gets its name from.

    It is incorrect to call the Yoke as the “Mongol Empire”, and Rus' as a real part of it - because this wasn't a real country, but was simply a 200-year prolonged raid of nomads from the Golden Horde, and not a country. Yoke, not Empire. Horde of nomads, not the Empire and country. And of course, under pressing of Mongols-Tatar nomad's Yoke these territories were not then “number one in population” - because it was, first, a monstrous Mongol pogrom and massacre - genocide, and then just raids and ongoing genocide. Other than this, the Russians had no connections with the Horde Mongols. And the Russians never called themselves "Muscovy". This exo-pseudo-name was invented by the Polish occupiers and their Jesuits.

      the Holy Roman Empire was also called 'the Roman Empire' at first, simply because all who wanted be the successor wanted continue as such AND because Christians in general believed into the 4 empire prophecy form Daniel from the bible which said that there are 4 empire before the apocalypse. first: Babylon second: Persia third: Greece and fourth: the Roman Empire. Now since there was no apocalypse the Roman Empire could not have collapse but just changed. The Central Europe one included basically the former classic Roman core (Rome/Papel states, most of Italy, especially the North) and kept Latin etc., Byzantium changed to Greek and was not part of the classic core, on the other hand it continued more obvious. Anyway, the Holy Roman Empire became then more powerful and lived longer (longer then the video btw.). Before that the Frankish Empire under Karl dem Grossen (wrongly named Charlemagne) was seen as one Roman Empire with the Holy Roman Empire developing out of most parts.

    This is an awesome video which I myself come back to frequently, it's interesting to see my part of the world (Sweden) and its doings throughout the ages. The Cherusci were one of the larger Germanic tribes who were initial allies of the Roman empire and had their sons serve in the Legion, but one of their later leaders whom I'm sure you know of, Arminius, broke with his Roman upbringing and brought about the Battle of Teuterburg forest in 9 AD where three Roman legions (ca. 20,000 men) were annihilated during three days of fierce fighting with a great alliance of most germanic tribes. They were later in the forefront of keeping Romans at bay from Germania. And it's the Emirate of Cordoba. The Ummayyad Caliphate only lasted 69 years before fracturing into many pieces, one of which was the Emirate of Cordoba which later became the smaller Taifas of Iberia.
    As a Swede also, before the Viking age Scandinavia had quite a similar bronze age which lasted into the "Vendel age" until 793 AD when the attack of Lindesfarne monastery ocurred. It was an extremely rich period thanks to exports of amber to the Romans among others who kept it as luxury furnishings. The Vendel period is also were we actually find horned helmets, although they are thought to have been exclusively ceremonious. I believe Tacitus spoke of this period in his writings, how there was advanced maritime technology (not longships though) and the people were tall, blonde and strong.

    Answer to question 8:26 ... Before 800 there where people living in Scandinavia, but no larger kingdoms ... and still it just says on the map "Swedish states" That means there where not any untied Sweden at that time just various smaller kingdoms sometimes choosing a unified king to rule ... sometimes fighting ... (that is a really simplified explanation) ... before that, even as far back as the bronze age, we had trade routes from Scandinavia to the states in southern Europe, both land routes and sea routes ...

    Before the Viking age, Scandinavians actually raided Europe - but at that time (the Migration Period) not by sea.
    Some Germanic tribes, like the Goths, originally derived from southern Sweden. The Goths split into the Visigoths and the Ostrogoths. They founded their kingdoms respectively, spanning from Portugal to the Balkans.

    I've watched this video many times. My thoughts.
    1. WWI and WWII were so devastating and significant, yet they were mere blinks in the history of the continent. As was the Napoleonic era.
    2. Linked to the above, WWI, WWII, and the Franco-Prussian War (1870) were a triptych or act in three parts in the creation of Germany out of the collapse of the Holy Roman Empire (which was neither holy, Roman, nor an empire). I wonder if it will be seen as such in future histories (assuming there are some, as so much of our history will be lost when the electronic technology ends).
    3. The Mongol invasion c.1260AD destroyed all meaningful resistance to its military and was only stopped by the death of the Khan, and the internal struggles that broke the Empire into various hordes. Otherwise Europe would've become a Mongol vassal. On the pronounciation of Ghingis Khan, my understanding is that it is closer to 'ching-giss han'(?)

    Pompey ended the Seleucid Empire in 64 BC. Yes, the Burgundians are the tribe that established their kingdom in modern-day eastern France and Switzerland. The Cherusci are Arminius' tribe that kicked the Romans' ass in Teutoburg Forest in 9 AD. 7:50 Exactly - Cordoba started out as an emirate by the deposed Umayyad caliph Abd al-Rahman I until his descendant Abd al-Rahman III eventually claimed the title of caliph in 929 - thus openly challenging the "official" (Fatimid) Caliphate.

And the 'official' caliphate was the Abbasid one, not the Fatimid one.

    Before and during the Mongol invasion into Europe something else interesting happened in the Baltic region. Basically the Polish king couldn't keep his grubby hands to himself and tried to invade Prus lands, was pushed back and invaded in turn. This lead to the Crusades against the Prus tribes starting from 1217. In these Crusades the Teutonic Order rose in importance, subjugated the Prus and ultimately formed the Duchy of Prussia. The same country that in 1701 rose to a Kingdom and united Germany for the first time in 1871.
    Fun fact there are some accounts from the height of the Roman Empire that described the Prus as a merchant people from the unknown north. Apparently they traded in pelts and amber.

    In Poland it was once believed that we were descended from the Iranic Sarmatians of antiquity whose presence can be seen near the Black Sea. This belief, Sarmatianism, became the dominating cultural ideology during commonwealth times. Even today it is not uncommon to see Poland poetically referred to as Sarmatia and Poles themselves as Sarmatians. We actually aren’t the only Slavic group to claim a Sarmatian connection. The Serboi was a Sarmatian tribe that is supposed to be connected to Serbia for example. I believe Ukrainians similarly connect with the Sarmatian origin myth, but more specifically with the very closely related Scythian people. You’re very knowledgeable with your history.

    Literary recommendation for you. The "Masters of Rome" series of historical novels by Colleen McCulloch.
    Starts with "The First Man in Rome" and chronicles Gaius Marius and Lucius Cornelius Sulla. You will learn all about those Germanic tribes including the Cherusci.
    As the books progress we are introduced to Pompey, Marcus Crassus, a cast of thousands including a little-known fellow called Gaius Julius Caesar, through Mark Antony and Gaius Octavius (Octavian/Augustus).
    Although they are technically novels, she won a Pulitzer prize for research and they are packed with power struggles; political, military and domestic.
    You need a brain to read them but I know you've got that covered!

Well, they were even more stubborn than you can see just by looking at state borders, because they're actually still there. They're a province of The Netherlands now, but the province name still translates as "Frisianland" and they still have their own official language "Frisian" (yes, the Netherlands has two official languages, but Frisian is less known because there's only like 400.000 people who still speak it).
