- Опубликовано: 29 июн 2022
- Where and when does the history of Europe begin? The traces lead to ancient Greece, and more precisely to Crete. Here we not only find the first high culture of the continent, but also the founding myth, to which it owes its name: The story of the kidnapping of the Phoenician princess Europa by the Greek god Zeus. Follow narrator Christopher Clark as he recounts the history of the European continent through the centuries in the 6-part documentary series.

This is insane! How is it possible to watch a documentary of this quality for free? With amazing video material and narration of the best academic quality. Wow! Can’t wait for part 3!
I agree!👍
His ideas haven't moved on since the days of Gibbon. This is a dated idea of Europe. None of the ancient world that he presents as foundation for the very idea of Europe we wouldn't have access to without it being preserved, interpreted & disseminated by Arab scholars.
@@shakiMiki what do you recommend then mr Europe understander
You either pay RUclips a subscription fee or watch companies' advertisements.
Nothing is free my friend. Don't think that a minute of your time is worthless. A second for ads is priceless. But I agree with the documentary is high quality.
Being a student of history from the University of Hyderabad .. India...i am fascinated by your intellectual prowess..amazing ...
అభినందనలు మిత్రమా..
Magnificent! Eloquent, fluent and smart sounding orator. His tone of voice, even though formal, is direct, sincere, and grabs one's attention. Pitch perfect!
He's magnificent 😍
This presentation is, as you Brits say, "top shelf!" What a treasure... thank you! Love from the USA!
Wow, thank you!
This should have a million views at least. The amount of effort that is exerted here is great. And we can view it for free.
This is absolutely phenomenal. There is no excuse, everything you want to learn about the world is on the Internet. Thank you for making this incredible video accessible and free for all, I learnt so much about Europe despite being thousand of miles away.
For years it is repeated like in windmills all the same history !
But what I found recently is miracle .
The fortrees in Ohrid ( lihnid )was built by Filip the Second of Makedon .
That is why we have remined Republic Makedonia .
Our name was not changed but become stronger with the new preposition "North".
Sorry Graecusian !
Was that the change of our name ?
Not everything 😢
On the internet you will always just find summaries, like this video.
And unfortunately on tiktok, twitter/X or elsewhere people are always discussing summaries, often even misunderstood because they have huge, huuuge gaps.
This video is better than nothing, no doubt.
But it's still "almost nothing" compared to the real history.
Wonderful! Thank you from a dual Ireland/USA citizen.
Our pleasure!
Truly an amazing documentary. It's not just the perfect visualization but also Chistopher Clark that tells the stories in a immensely fascinating way.
Can someone explain to me exactly how the Germanic tribes maintained or advanced the civilization that Rome built?
To me, Christopher Clark is one of the great history explainers of our time. Always informative, entertaining, deeply humane and accurate to the point. Not only in the documentaries, but also in his books. I'm just reading "Iron Kingdom" about Prussia's history - it's just excellent. I am very grateful that he came over to tell us about our history again and again. Thank you for uploading this great documentary series.
So lucid and easy to follow. Most IR courses start with the Treaty of Westphalia 1648 but it is really essential to incorporate the lead up to sovereign states and interdependency from this time onwards. Professor Clarke's book Iron Kingdom is a superb read.
Thank you for this comment, I did not know he is a writer as well. I will definitely look for his books.
made sure to praise what's quality, not afraid to compare what's lacking, and bold enough to criticise the parts that needed reform. truly an impartial observer
Thank you so MUCH for raising awareness and sharing this incredible work.
Wonderful documentary, and beautifully narrated!
Truly remarkable documentary production, Christopher Clark being born in Australia has a perfect Posh English accent and his pleasant smooth voice makes it easier to listen. History always fascinated me.
Excellent six-part series. Thank you to Christopher Clark and team for the interesting and educational series on history of Europe.
The efforts behind this documentary are remarkable.. Christopher, the producer, the cameraman are immensely talented ... this is the way knowledge helps progressing the quality of life...

This is not independent it is sponsored by the German state. Propaganda is free.
Misleading efforts.

Quando eu era criança aqui no Brasil eu era fascinado em estudar história para em aprofundar no império romano, Grécia e as grandes guerras... infelizmente esse sonho não foi incentivado pela minha família e hoje aos 32 anos consumo esse tipo de conteúdo mas do que nunca, pq infelizmente no Brasil não temos toda essa informação a respeito da Grécia e dos povos antigos da Europa. Meu inglês escrito não é bom, não pratiquei ao longo dos anos mas ouço e entendo cada palavra dos documentários ou livros que leio. O RUclips é um lugar incrível para adquirir conhecimento.
very interesting my friend.
well iam from Denmark and i always had the same love for greek history,mythology etc but i am lucky because here at europe you can rent a book from your local liblary and learn anything you need.also there are tones of greek books here :)
This is utterly fascinating and a huge thank you.
Perfect!!! The narrator is unpompous, knowledgeable, and easy to learn from. The music is lovely and just right…it complements rather than drowns the speaker. Thank you so much for a classy documentary. Can’t get enough! ~Linda from Montana~
This is the most English sounding Aussie I’ve ever heard. None the less, top notch presentation and documentary.
Nah...he's Aussie alright😊
Obviously one of those great rarities - a cultured , civilized Australian...?
Proud European greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Civilisation Européenne ❤️❤️
Ancient Greeks admitted everything they learned they got from Egyptians. Greetings from Egypt.
@@jakejhons5138
Mavro Grecos you mean !
Thanks to Slavian (European ) migration , they became European .
Who taught the Egyptians ?
@@ShirleyAnnPetrillo-oj7sc It was mostly independent civilization but they did learn some from Sumer (First civilization in human history)
Brief concise but informative, pleasant to follow. Thanks
So many adroit reviews. Thank you for such elevating programming. Phenomenal research/production and narration. At the conclusion of each episode, I can't wait to watch the next one. This is of the highest caliber. Bravo!
What a beautiful documentary and narration in every respect! Thank you for your great efforts and sharing!
Love watching documentaries like this
I can already see how well and in depth this is going to be, 👏🏻
An excellent documentary I've been looking for.❤
Amazing documentary. I got so happy to hear the OST from 'Hercules' when the marathon appears😍
Exactly what I've been looking for all this time! Best documentary I've watched in a long time.
Such a great documentary! Well done!
Great job!!! remarkable video, definitely needs an award
Thank you. Well made and a pleasure to watch.
Holy moly. Awesome stuff. Gonna binge watch
I adored this documentary. As i greek i can say that there are some important missing parts of ancient greek history ( Philosophy, history, medicine, criticism, maths, olympics, sparta and its oen democratic principles - public education, equality in fortune). Great alexander and macedonians didn t conquered greece, because they were part of it ( same language, religion, traditions, participation at olympics). Actually ancient cities were often fighting one another. They are called greece because everytine needed they were united and because of what is known as "panhellenic bonds". Though i totally understand that you cannot include every detail in such a documentary. Thank you very much for the great job. The narrator is awesome!
It's a presentation about Europe, not about Ancient Greece.
There are many other documentaries/presentations available that specifically analyse particular regions and civililisations/empires of human history.
No need for your overt patriotism.
@@evaburnzGreece is Europe in so many ways.
Greece is 200 years old country, what are you talking about
its a tragedy that all southern euro cultures were copied from phoenician bablonian etc.national boasting is broadly regarded as stupidity,possibly in dna,,clearly a geographical gene pool of early african migration
@@evaburnz hmmmm i think someone got a bit toxic and jealously...
iam from Denmark but i feel greek because we all greeks.europe is greece and greece is europe at any point of view.move on your life my friend because greeks have the most important and interesting history on planet make you angry??why???you called that guy patriotic why for??if i had also the legacy and the history of greece then i would feel the same its not a shame or a bad thing.greeks gave so much effort through their huge history to save their language and their culture and you should respect that.i really got tired with people like you on comment sections.iam a huge fan of greek history and everytime i reading the comment section i always meeting toxic and stupid comments like yours.really got tired of that .
what an eye-opener hat keeps you hooked up on waiting more..DR Christopher Clark made it interesting and amazing to watch ..so well pleasant details ..thank you ,3
Absolutely amazing.. so happy I found this channel!
I really enjoyed this very happy to have seen it, still have to watch part two but very pleased with it. Thankyou so much.
This was excellent. Great narrator, great visuals. I'm looking forward to the second part.
Wonderfully done. Thank you.
excellent, Thanks for everyone who work on this documentary.
Thank you very much for this marvellous gift. Alone the computer graphics reconstructions would be enough to make this documentary remarkable. The way the facts are linked and analysed allows a comprehensive panorama of the birth, raise and fall of the empires that culminated in the formation of this amazing continent known as Europe.
Very happy to see all the comments and perhaps even epiphanies brought alive from viewing this excellent and informative/wonderful documentary about our European history. Bravo! Ⓜ️ edit: his DNA results made me excited and happy for him!
This is an outstanding work - clear, succinct, informative and delectable. I had goosebumps watching this video from the realization of how profoundly European I am and how deeply I am connected to the fascinating history and heritage of this part of the world.
Amen, Brother! Feel it !! 👍🤜🏼🤛🏼Ⓜ️Our ancestors would be proud to hear it.

@@africanhistory European culture and history really is the best.
The Europeans slaughtered Native Americans. And there's no guilt. They brutally killed Native Americans, including Inca.
Europeans, my favorite race! So many *highly* complex inventions. And contrary to current propaganda, so few people have been killed in White culture compared to other cultures. Compare with Asia, for instance. Dozens of millions have been slaughtered in that continent, and it has so few difficult inventions to call its own. Europeans truly are unmatched! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Great documentary and for free! Thanks. And always heard Christopher Clark’s book on WW1 was one of the best.
Thank You For This! I learned a Lot!
An excellent and informative documentary.
I have no words to comment what an extraordinary narration
Enjoyable and learnable !
Will watch it again.
First class presentation. Many thanks for the education, style and quality.
Thank you!
Fantastic documentary. I couldn't imagine a better way to spend a pre dawn Saturday morning. Incredibly well done. Now for the next part.
Me too
GREAT PRESENTER-one of the best ❤
Very thankfull for this excellent, superbly made documentary.
Extraordinary documentary !! That explicitly demonstrates the history-changing panorama from acient Greek to Rome. And if with more global view simultaneously to ancient India or China, it would be great.
E pace ne myth
Just had to revisit this masterpiece. European history is absolutely fascinating and full of grandeur.
All history is :D

Fantastic work. Thanks for the great efforts put into it.
One of the best history documentaries. Insightful, interesting and engagingly narrated. Highly recommended!
amazing, outstanding documentary.
I don’t usually watch videos this long, but it definitely kept my attention!
This video should be a requirement in every high school. Very well done and amazing amount of Western history.. Thanks.
Christopher Clark. Absolutely spot on.
Thank you for this amazing work!
What a mesmerising documentary it is!
Thank you! I'm so pleased to have found this channel, with an interest in the history of Europe, and my country of birth, The Netherlands. The assumption that Neanderthalers were stupid and undeveloped is a huge mistake. Due to their way of living with the elements, animal and plant-life, they were deeply connected to the knowledge of form and shape.
Hence the extraordinarily detailed, correct display of animal-drawings on the face of rock.
Great find. Those re-enactments were first-class! The professor was nicely professional as the narrator.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Insane!!!! I love it. Thank you. Please make some space documentary.
Excelente, muchas gracias.
I love history of every country
Ma-ra-vi-lho-so! Parabens a toda a equipa, muito obrigada. Thank you so much! Narrator´s voice is very clear and nice. Great quality, amazing theme, excelent work.
A fascinating way to communicate history!
Just WOW history is truly amazing and a great teacher we should learn from it for the better if humanity
What an incredible story sir, hat's off to you and for your passion. A literary and visual splendor. Gracias.
Hats off
Great ❤️
Love from 🇮🇳 India
Such a beautiful documentary❤
Excellent six. Parent series.this tea for theinteresting and education series on history of Europe
European history always fascinates me.
3:30. Right then and there you can tell this is nothing but neo nationalism, which ignores all evidence that doesn't support its agenda. The first homo sapient in Europe (the ones that intermixed with neanderthals) we know for a fact based on dna, were people related to ancestors of East Asians and Melanesians, haplogroup K. And we have their descendents, haplogroup R, showing up in locations like Italy 15 thousand years ago, or Spain 11 thousand years ago. Showing clear genetic continuity over a vast period of time. The first Europeans, as well as more recent hunter-gatherers did not come by way of the route shown here.. It is non factual.
Outstanding!
Wonderful! Splendid!
from the Arabian gulf region. i appreciate all the efforts that have been put in this great video.
so happy to find this channel
I really enjoy watching all the documentaries that I slept through in middle school.
Wow! Muy bien hecho!!
Europe conquered the world
watching again. thank you
Great doc, thanks.
Allot Thanks ...Most wonderful video about earlier roots of European peoples
Real Uncorrupted European History :
Haplogroup R1b,R1a (Indigenous Europeans)
(Basques, Gaels, Poles)
Haplogroup I (Neolithic Indo European wave from Anatolia. Megaliths, Polytheism, Pottery, Longhouses, Axes, Sailing ships)(Bosnians,Scandinavians,Sardinians)
Haplogroup J2b (Bronze Age Indo European wave. Ancient Mycenean/Minoan Greece. Rome. Writing and Metallurgy)
(Modern Cretans)
And some lesser sporadic influxes of Haplogroup E (North Africa) and Haplogroup G (Western Caucasus)
Well I believe Germans were fighting in Roman Legions during the time of Caligula right? After all I believe Caligula may have had German influences given his name. Of course these would be Germans who had been in Silesia for many centuries before the Romans correct?
Excellent, a pleasure to watch
Wow!!!! thanks alot..❤
Love the "Rome"soundtrack with the minoans......sweet
Excellent doc
So many ethnicities and nationalities to go from and so many cultures, holidays, traditions, languages, celebrations, religions, spiritualities, politics, governance, classes, castes, ranks, social statuses, parties, picnics, pot lucks, gatherings, and come togethers yeah.
Superb documentary
Very interesting and full of educational
This historian and the documentary is like taking a History degree , just a spectacular piece of learning. I loved it!
Regarding the eight legged bison depicted on the cave walls, it was suggested by Werner Herzog in his documentary “cave of forgotten dreams” that a lit torch in a cave would flicker, and might create the illusion of movement by the bison.
Mind Blowing....
Yes that makes so much sense thank you,,
Comments are blocked (those who reveal the misleading claims)
That incredible art,those painting, were not created by chance.Those paintings were created by educated People...There must of being an incredible civilization who was destroyed and those people who survived were trying to send a message...this is what I believe.
