    The Three Kingdoms - OverSimplified: • Three Kingdoms - OverS...
    I wanted to learn about the history of Eastern Cultures and OverSimplified was already recommended to me ^^ It was a very entertaining video about the Three Kingdoms period of China. I really like History and Culture in general but we learn so little about those regions in school. I'm happy to see many people love to learn about History too! ^^

      @@Torineesan While history sure is at the start tough, you can privately watch the youtube gamer Serious Trivia's Let's Talk Lore series about events and persons from the Three Kingdoms (while using game assets from Total War Three Kingdoms and more!), (Edit 1:) or perhaps enjoy his current series about the Monkey King Sun Wukong (no relation to Sun Jian and family) all thanks to the new game Black Myth!
      A reason that the historic period is awesome is because of the exploits and divine status certain men from the period, such as the God of War Guan Yu, strategist wizards Zhuge Liang, and scheming widowloving mastermind regent Cao Cao, among many others that inspired folktales, novels, and games based on such traumatic events from more than 1800 years ago!

    The reason why that early part of the video said that it might be mythical probably refers to the period of Chinese mythology known as the age of 3 Sovereigns and 5 Emperors. These 8 are deities of Chinese yore who each lived for thousands of years and had godly powers(hence the laser eyes). Following this age is the arguably first dynasty of China, the Xia which up until today has no definitive evidence pointing to its existence. That's why they might be 'mythical'.

      yeah the Xia dynasty or anything even earlier has only documented in the record but almost no relics existed anymore (or destroyed, i mean it;s thousands years ago it's pretty normal), hence why people only refer them as mythical period. It existed but no physical evidences

      @@GreenC The big problem with identifying Xia era artifact is that so far people have only been able to decipher the writings on oracle bones, which were dated to the Shang dynasty that follows Xia. There are plenty of artifacts or relics dated older than the Shang, but since most of those lack any inscription , or inscriptions that have been fully deciphered to precisely confirm they are from Xia era.
      But you see what's the problem with that pretty strict definition of what's factual and what's mythical right? By that standard many cultures around the world would be classified as purely mythical, if they don't have any survivable and decipherable writing. And that logic certainly isn't applied evenly everywhere, so it really is kind of unfair to the Xia.

    So there's actually two versions of the Three Kingdoms story. _Records of the Three Kingdoms_ is the actual historical information that took place in this time period, whereas _Romance of the Three Kingdoms_ is the romanticized version which is the one most people are familiar with.
    The Romanticized version is the one that gets adapted into everything from TV shows, Mangaka/Manhwa/Manhua, Live Acttion Movies, and Video games.. the most well-known being _Dynasty Warriors,_ which is a hack and slash action game set in the time period, and you can choose to follow all the stories of the 3 Kingdoms and even a 4th campaign for how the war ends. And the amount of characters you can play as is insane with each wielding insane weapons...
