- Why was Venice, Italy built on water?
Venice (Italy) is one of the most amazing cities in the world. But how did it get there? Why would anyone want to live in a city that can't be accessed by land, and who had to build their houses out over the water? Well, as you'll see from this video, there's a really good reason why they made Venice out of water.

People have been building settlements in the most awkward of places since the dawn of time. I'm pretty sure we will keep doing so forever.
just look at Dubai

Yeah, like Mars.
@Bisexual Guy I 'm , 47 years old and was not born during the last moon landing and have been waiting to see a return to the nearby moon.
People waiting for a Mars landing are in for a real long wait.
I think it’s interesting to say that the wood they used “happened” to be water resistant. I believe it’s totally possible and even likely that they knew and made this move on purpose. Awesome video, thanks!
Yes I was thinking the same thing.
@@clickhereforshowittoothers2184 well I doubt it concerns me as I am no longer an atheist. I was accepted into the Kingdom of Heaven as I started craving that love which is eternal and infinite. As I cried out to My Father, that is Your Father also, he gave me the knowledge I was searching for and much more. He made me realize, in my own personal life and experience, that Jesus is the way. I am walking on the narrow path in my elder brother Jesus`s footsteps now, even today. As I have risen from the dead and come to take Jesus`s mission further. In a vision I realized that I can pray for miracles to happen in this world, but the world might be too numb and stubborn to realize it. That is when I called upon my Father again and asked PLEASE LET ME HELP O LORD, IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO. Now MiCahEl realized himself to me, in flesh this time. First in the vision I saw and suddenly by his Apostle Elijah. My friends and family were scared I got in a cult, but this is the healing of the nations and the truth of the light. We know that we know that wherever our heart is--there we shall be. Much love brethren. That is just a short testimony of how I came to be Saint Elvardiel Monjahronson Sehrahrah SHMD, Chief Apostle, Jesus Christ MiCahEl Super Human Ministry of Divinity. Swordofgod is our dotOrg website & you need to go there and learn of The Master`s Return.
Most inventions are made by accidents, it is 99.99% probably just out of luck since that was the only wood found abundantly in that area, and then by the time they started importing wood, they may have known about this and only imported this kind of wood.
@@SaintElvardielSHMD You running out of drugs buddy?,
@@ritwikreddy5670 I would argue that most inventions start with an idea and then are followed by trial and error of methodology and materials to get the best results to achieve the envisioned goal. This is no different. Coastal cities already built wooden piers before Venice was built. Their genius was not the discovery of the longevity of wood piles in water, but to envision that done at great density and scale they could actually conquer the marshland mud islands the way they did.
Some "discoveries" are certainly born out of luck or accidents.
I was in Venice when I was ten. It was every bit as impressive as described. It breaks my heart to see it knee deep in water now.
Don't worry mate its still there now, perhaps a few more decades
@@ilcondottierocartografo6770 well I think they’re working on preventing it from sinking.
It's not knee deep in water.
It's not knee deep 😂😂 it's still well and alive
Building a city on wooden stilts in the middle of a swamp; now that's some grueling work.
Frr then trusting that its will be a sturdy home that stays there forever remarkable
"Adorable attempts at a siege" is my absolute favorite part of this video
no, "9 inches, this doesn't seem a lot - by the way im talking about sea level, gentlemen" is the best line in this channel ever
@@retsreinyrelgeinthrelaveri1456 I'm willing agree that both are fantastic for different reasons lol
@@clickhereforshowittoothers2184 it's risen 8 inches since the beginning of the 1900's and 2 inches in the last 20 years alone. It's not that hard to actually research instead of blindly believing conspiracy theories.
Now, go away, or I shall taunt you a second time! 🐹 🍷
@@clickhereforshowittoothers2184 wow, that reference went right over your head. And I got my information from multiple verifiable sources that have done countless studies over the last century+ on these subjects. Unlike you, who clearly Googled phrases that fit your bias and then used the first one you saw that you agreed with.
And why do you keep bringing up Obama? Why is a *former* (and not even most recent) American president so important to you in this conversation? It's kinda weird how you keep bringing him up. You should probably self reflect on why you're so obsessed and angry with him. Just don't forget the science classes in between the reflection sessions❤
@@morgannaomi1231 Citation? I have read multiple studies that claim that 75% of people that have 'read' studies 100% of the time haven't gone past the news headline.
There is so much shade towards other groups and past events in this video. I love it
Artfully done too.
"Adorable attempts at a siege" is my fav line from this video.
Ah Venice... The city of water that became a favorite of mine solely because of an animated pokemon movie from back in the day that featured a pair of lovely Dragons and a gemstone that held the water in place. I've been fascinated by the city ever since.
Same
W a t e r

Latios and latias are the Pokémon you saw In the movie.
Love your icon. it reminded me of just that.
"too build a city where it is impossible to build a city is madness in itself, but to build there one of the most elegant & grandest cities is the madness of genius"
Is no one gonna talk about how Venice was literally led by a Doge? Lol
I scrolled through the comment section to look for this comment
Wow. Such wow.
Such city, much water.
It comes from the latin "dux", like duke in english
The "Doge" (Dux) also was not like the king title, it was a more crafted and political title.
Next video idea!
“Why your dad probably hasn’t return from the store yet?”

@@LeOrioN7 .....Yeah
I wonder aswell?
“the western roman empire has epically fall”
the best line he has ever said
There once was a dream. A dream that fell.
"9 inches, this doesn't seem a lot - by the way im talking about sea level, gentlemen"
Yes but was nothing like portrayed in that painting, if I have to make an educated guess I think a better fitting example for "fall" would be the slow decline in population and influence of the west in favour of Asian and African societies... forecasts for the next century
I was thinking water flooded Venice on land or something. I never knew!
I swear I could listen to a video that is hours long if you guys made a compilation of all your background music!
fun fact: did u know that more people die from pigs than from sharks!!?? i will post such regular vid so make sure to sub!! btw i'm a kid

the global warming sarcasm at the end was hilarious 😂
Engineering and architecture back in the day is a genius because they can build something so strong that can last for forever even if it sunk into the water.... Today all things have been built in wood, cement, metal, etc... But it's not as solid as it was like the structures have been made back then...
Holland: Finally a worthy opponent. Our battle will be Legendary.
Nah it was venice who said that first
I remember watching a short doc about Venice where they were exploring various basements and ground floor levels showing how, over the years, the "ground floor" of the building were being built upon to raise up the floor level. While I'm not sure if it still holds true today, in the doc the mentioned how the raising of the floors has fallen out of practice in favor of other methods. On one hand I can see how basically making the floors thicker could help in the short term but by the same token you're just adding more and more weight on very old foundations. Certainly not an easy problem to solve no matter which angle you attack it from.
Love the Infographics show :)
Those Italian pronunciations were awesome to listen 😆
Wrong in some parts though, like at 2:05 when he says Venezia/Venessia as if it was written Venizia. The second e is pronounced similarly to the first one, that's how you say e in Italian, it's not like English where you pronounce vowels in many different ways
@@Marco-zt2jj that one hurt deeply
@@Marco-zt2jj vecio ha detto awesome, non correct
I'm not going to make fun of a non-italian speaker to get it wrong... but there was plenty of time to research the right pronunciation and do it right before publishing. Oh well...
@@GiorgioPranzo sono sicuro che se una persona ti chiedesse di leggere e pronunciare il nome di una città tedesca non c’è la faresti…questo non può prendersi un master in italiano per fare un video anche perché non toglie nulla al video stesso, manca proprio la cadenza come per noi nella maggior parte delle persone che parla inglese e quella non si impara dall’oggi al domani, è una critica inutile e insensata, la pretesa di una cosa futile e della quale il creatore del video non ha nessuna colpa
Thankyou for all you guys do!
An awesome question I never thought to ask. Another excellent video Infographics
Nice video!
I just visited Veneto/Venezia/ today , ist much bigger than i was imagined, really good food and the vibe of the City is just incredible, nice people and if you ever have the chance you should go 😊
Thank you! I learnt so much 🧡
Great vid
Ah Venice!! Its a beautiful place to see on pictures. Can't imagine how beautiful it would be in real life. Thanks for the information ❤️

There isn't enough land anyways so more country's should build city's on water I think
Tbh your not wrong

Yes shoot farrel hog on site all year anytime also coyotes. THERE IS ALOT OF LAND un populated. Trust me. I live in a Forest I am not Gump.
There was a news report on vanishing canals (water) on Venice. That was weird. Thank you for the update, The Infographics Show..!!
Decided by very important people who have at most 15 years on the planet.
That was a smooth roast.
The Infographics Show brings you answers to questions you didn't know you had all along
I'm liking the art improvements. Could use more shading a reflections.
First of all congratulations for the video and the Italian pronunciation 😁 🇮🇹As for the MOSE, it was inaugurated this year and for now it seems to work, but it was designed for the containment of the tides only and not for the increase in sea level. I hope humanity works in time to avoid the disaster of climate change.🤞
A spectacular Infographical tale on the city
No mention of the sudden clarity of the canals last year when tourism dropped to zero during their lockdowns, that was an impressive sight, seeing how clean and clear the water could be without all the traffic churning up the silt... :)
Italy doesn't care about pollution what a pathetic country

Lol I love you infographic show, cheap shots I like it
so close to 10 million!! congrats in advance 💪
You should do a video on the Netherlands and their waterways it’s very unique and has a long history
The SHADE in the back half of the video! I was dying with laughter!
Hello Infographics!
I’ve been to Venice but i never knew about the wood base thanks for the information
ALMOST AT 10 MILLION SUBS KEEP IT UP
As a Californian that's one quarter Italian, going to Venice was my first time leaving my continent. And it was totally worth it. It's amazing. Florence was almost equally amazing
The Aztec city of Tenochitlan was built on water as well. They were built on 2 small islands and then extended on a lake
You didn't mention Genoa, the archrival of venice, I think that is extremely important, then you could show a chart of venice's and Genoa's territories
learnt about this when i was lucky enough to visit Venice and joined a free walking tour there
Thank for the vid
And info
fun fact: did u know that more people die from pigs than from sharks!!?? i will post such regular vid so make sure to sub!! btw i'm a kid
It makes sense because of all the canals that make up parts of the city. I always thought the canals were built after discovering a water reservoir underground, so it could be used as drinking water.
If you look at Venice right, it looks like Patrick needing water
I went to Venice and I was really shook when it swayed to the current and how well it has withstood for how long it’s been there. It’s very interesting to actually visit it and see how it was built
Y e s
It doesn't "sway".
"tail between legs" everyday u get me with some jokes wish my teacher taught like this they teach like zombies just reading what ever is in the reader
@@clickhereforshowittoothers2184 average has only risen 4 inches, but standard deviation increased a lot and there are much more high tides and low tides than before, that was clearly mentioned in the video. You seem like quite an intellectual based on your name, you may need to study direct research studies instead of believing what they say on media. Media is sensationalist and most often uses clickbaity headlines and open ended questions to draw attention of viewers, and many people, even educated ones just read the headlines and assume the rest and spread the wrong information to their friends and spam on youtube comments about athiests being satan worshippers when they don't even believe satan exists at all.
@@clickhereforshowittoothers2184 promoted? By who?
And why would you start beliefing in satan if you just said that gods, devils, etc don't exist.
I think you mix athiests up with a groupe.
Athiests are normaly just alone with the view and don't have a groupe where they meet every sunday and say that god doesn't exist.
No god
No satan
No boss
No one else who could tell me what to do or to think.
I don't even think "No god exists" or something like that, I just don't think about god at all.
The last minute got my like, lol, shots fired !
I love the Show!!!

VENEZIA! ONE OF MY FAVOURITE PLACES! WHAT A NICE VIDEO! :)
Whenever I see the word Venice I dream about Assassin's Creed and in that game Venice was called Venezia
Its still called Venezia.
It's Venezia in Italian...
Wooooow
Same lol😊🤩
Assassin‘s Creed 2 is definitely my favorite AC.
We indeed do a case study of Venice's history & development (up until it was conquered by Napoleon) in my country's public school curriculum at Secondary 4 (equivalent of 10th grade). e.g. their invention of double-entry bookkeeping
LETS GOOOOOOO HE IS HITTING 10MIL SOON LETS GOOOOO THE 10M DIAMOND PLAT congratulations on the grow
The sea level joke had me cracking I was not expecting thatxd
the inforgraphics show is an professional at saying italian
very nice
I’ve had this question for so long
Wow truly genius we lost so much knowledge back then
this is why I want him in my classes
That sarcasm at the end haha
4:00 Guy on left cranking out reps, then bearded guy comes up and asks, "Bro... do you even lift?"
Highly recommend visiting Venice in the spring before the large amounts of tourist arrive of course after covid
Does anyone know the name of the background music? 👉🏽👈🏽
I was in Venice once. On that day the Piazza San Marco was flooded and the Water flower over the channels in next to the Rialto bridge. Since that day I know that Venice has a BIG problem…
I hope the City will last for some more years
Now I wanna go there!
Please make a video on lost city of lord Krishna ( Dwarka ). Love from India 👍
Lord Krishna was a myth.....😬😬😒
@@thevozhd9846 everything is myth. It only depends if you want to accept it's real or not.
already been, it was incredible
Watching this while in Venice.
Awesome
History is amazing
Perhaps with the wall around the city blocking the sea, they could also pump water out and have better access to the wood foundation for maintenance 🤷♂️
Side note about the MOSE, it's not as depicted in the video, in fact it's a serie of submerged plaforms that rise when there is an high tide.
Like the sarcasm at the end. My thoughts exactly.
Why not put something buoyant under the city's platform? Think floating dock
8:28 Genius!
I know it’s not a well known and rural story but u gotta do the Blackwell brothers from SC or LW Wright from nascar

This should be taught in some schools in my opinion. Kids today would learn from this informative value that this channel puts out.
It is. It's in that class called "World History". Never underestimate the human ability to spend 12 to 16 years in school (more for post grad) and retain virtually nothing. The internet has proven that if nothing else.
amazing
no wonder doge took off as a meme, dat boi be a leader
Beats building in the middle of a dessert, I'm looking at you SoCa.
Venice italy looks like patrick needing water
bruh the Byzantines tried to reconquer the west so many times, and succeeded once, but lost it thereafter.
There once was a dream. A dream worth fighting for.
They dont lost it in war..but they lost a lot of money..The dream will never die
It is awesome to visit venice Italy for vacation
Can you do a video on Denver airport
Every town street and house in Italy has its own dialect. I shat myself
Not related to this video but can you can guys do another you vs series. John Wick vs Max Payne.
My fav so far
wow I didn't know it was built on wooden stilts!! that's amazing
Ive beem to venice for the bienale. Lovely city wish i had had more time to see it and not drag my sorry behind from art to art piece. I was there for art school. Hopefully after the pandemic and when i have the money i can go and see it again with my parents.
♡ Finnally somthing thats not dark and distrubing OωO ♡
As for the question at the end
I can't even leave my own city let alone the country...
Reminds me of ,,Marco Polo’’ show, where Venice is shown as Marcos flashbacks.
I’ve been to Venice very Beautiful
Plz correct the aspect ratio for big phones in your next video plz
