      Spain would be interesting because I’ve always been confused how all the little nations on the Iberian peninsula came together in to one country (well, technically two countries).
      I took Western Civilizations in college, but they kind of ignored the Iberian peninsula and didn’t seem to consider it part of Western Europe until Ferdinand and Isabella started playing a role in world exploration.

      There's a Roman writer who recorded some of the Gauls fought naked. Some of the perceived Gauls were actually Britons. This was Caesars justification for invading Britain. Also why, when he pulled up on the white cliffs of Dover, the Britons were on top of the cliffs waiting for them.

  • @Annie_Annie__
    @Annie_Annie__ Год назад +13

    I never learned most of this.
    I learned some of the bits about England when I took Western Civ in college (I’m from the States and when I was in school, world history was not taught much or emphasized at all), and I picked up other bits about this part of English history in random places on my own.
    But the only Scottish history I’ve ever learned from this era is Hadrian’s Wall, and that was covered in _Art History_ of all classes.
    I’d never even heard of Antonine Wall until now, let alone about the Kings of Scotland.
    I just had a vague idea that the Picts lived in northern Britain somewhere and Dal Riata was a term that had to do with that area, but I couldn’t have told you if it was a place, a language, a people, or a person.
    I might have to watch this a couple times to learn it all.

    This was so interesting. I am descended from Crinan, Abbott of Dunkeld and Princess Bethoc. I'm also descended from Alfred the Great. He's my 45th great grandfather. I have read 'Lion in the North ' by John Prebble, which is very good, but doesn't go into such detail about the lives and deaths of the early Scottish kings or mention any of their queens. Such a pity that so many women, whether royal or ordinary don't even get their names entered into family trees.
