Thanks for watching! Feel free to ask questions about the time period covered in the episode (there's a wealth of history that we can't include in this format and we'd love to share). Also remember to check below in the pinned comment for potential corrections. Corrections: Regarding flags - at two points in the episode we use vertical five-colored flags, which are called Darchog (dar lcog) in Tibetan. This was an oversight. They are an iconic feature of Tibetan Buddhism that you'll find throughout the Himalayas; but, to my knowledge, these types of prayer flags were not used during the imperial period, during which a variety of longer war banners, called Magdar (dmag dar) featuring the heraldry of the imperial state would have been used.
History of Tibet is much older, as proposed by the late retired Italian university professor Namkhai Norbu & now universally accepted by Tibetologists. You can get his three volumes he published before passing away, A History of Zhang Zhung and Tibet, light of kailash Volumes one, two & three. Can get some in ebook format too. He was urged by dalai Lama to write more, gave him a golden pen. He was also a Tibetan Buddhist master with many students (including me) & setup several charities in Tibet which are still active, established centers globally (tenerif, Europe, Americas, Asia), publishing houses etc. He proved roots of Tibetan culture & civilization are much older & trace to western Tibet. If you want your work to stand the test of time, I suggest reading these 3 volumes first. Good luck, worthy project. I was there when he gave the first volume presentation at my old college, university of London (SOAS), several noted historians were ecstatic.
This is one of my biggest dreams since I was a kid to make an animation on the Tibetan empire and that dream remained dream but fortunately being able to see it from someone else has invoked something within me. Great work, appreciate every little detail and time you put into it. 👍🏼👍🏼🙏🙏🙏
Thanks so much for posting. I'm thrilled that you liked the episode and I hope you enjoy the rest of the series, as well. Also, even if the animated history of Tibet is a success, there is always going to be real need for talented artists and science communicators to continue teaching Tibetan history to both young Tibetan and Western audiences. I can think of few things that are more worth while. Thanks again! Wishing you the best of luck in the new year!
Kudos to the team for the thorough research and animated presentation. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart because even Tibetans are forgetting our own history. Your work helps suffice years of sub-standard education in the exile communities and obviously inaccurate history taught in China-occupied Tibet.
Thanks so much! It has definitely been a labor of love. If we can raise the money (which we're working on), we are planning to translate and re-narrate the series in both Tibetan and Mandarin, which would make it even more accessible to communities that might struggle with the English of the series.
@@Huge_burger Hey there! We're actually already working on it. We're currently working on a Tibetan translation of the full series (which would allow us to upload Tibetan subtitles) and plan to release all nine episodes, when they're done, on a separate channel with Tibetan narration. We're planning a fundraising drive at the end of March to finance the work, but we all feel that it's extremely important that the series also exist in a Tibetan-language version.
Thank you so much for this!! Quite accurate although I'd beg to differ with some of the timelines. Having studied and covered Songtsen's and Gar Tungsten the past year, the animation helped make the imagination come alive. We have such rich history and it'd be a shame if our new generation not know of it. Would love to support the next animation on Tibetan civilization. Thank you Tibet House US, Prof. Brandon Dotson, Indiegogo and Alex and all involved in his great project!!
Thank you for making this video, even many of the Tibetans wouldn't know their early history. This is also a must watch video for those foreigners who doesn't know early Tibetan history.
This was so very comforting, thank you sm to the team for this gorgeous animation. Few now talk about tibet's history as a tibetan i cannot thank you enough for this
Everything you are posting is very important . So, as a learner I rest humble and seek your teaching through this amazing animation. I hope you used your knowledge power to spread the truth about Tibet with a positive influence in the world. Knowledge is power and right information is wisdom. Thank you so much for this beautiful gift of losar. I m learning n I will be learning about our history and how we fallen. Pray for our freedom and prosperity ! May bright sun light of freedom prevail in Tibet soon. I am seeking your assistance to gain knowledge through this thoughtful way of teaching. I don’t know you gen lak but I trust you and I m following your teachings here. Keep helping us to spread our unique history. Truth and truth is only accepted !! Thank you so much once again for your team n you for this great contribution. Bhogai loo!!
Awesome to see our great kings History in animation for the first time and Thank you Tibet House for this initiation🙏 and most importantly, Thank you ArmchairAcademics and Thanm you Alex 🙏 waiting for the rest of the episodes!
props you you and everyone else who helped make this video happen! Thank you so much this video was very accurate and was cool to watch as a Tibetan my self!
Great video! I am a Tibetan current pursuing my higher studies, this video reminded me of our once a week tibetan history classes. Though the stories were very much just surface leveled, those stories used to be so enjoyable. I would have never thought i will be able learn it in depth through a YT video. Thank you once again. Just some questions if u can answer. 1. Songtsen gampo is the 32nd king so is there any chance that previous kings would get any videos or mentions ( as some important things happened such as Nyenpo Sawang( beautiful secret) and other advancements that happened prior to Songtsen Gampo 2. If my understanding is correct i think konjo also brought another jowo which was later on known as kyidong jowo, kyidong being my grandparent's birthplace, they shared the jowo story with so if i you could get that fact checked.
Hey Tashi, thanks so much for the kind words. I'm really glad that you enjoyed the episode. The second should be coming out in early March and I'd love to hear your thoughts about that one, as well. And, my apologies in advance... this response is going to be a bit on the long side! To answer your questions... Question one: we're unfortunately not planning on covering the earlier kings of Tibet in any particular depth in this series. They'll be mentioned in some of the "abstract" sequences -- such as the sequence in this episode that discusses the Mu Chord (dmu thag) and the king Drigum Tsenpo. The reason for that is that Songtsen Gampo is the first king for whom we have significant historical evidence (e.g. the innovation of writing in the 7th century and Songtsen Gampo's extensive contact with the Tang court allow us to do much reliable historical research than is possible with earlier kings on the Tibetan Plateau). That's not to say (as some early Western historians did) that the preceding kings are all mythological -- although some certainly are. But the historical record is simply not complete enough to build a cohesive historical narrative. For my part, kingship in early Tibet is something that would be wonderful to return to in the future -- maybe once the series is complete it's a topic that we could cover. Definitely something I'd like to do. Question two: Do you mean "kyidong" as in "skyid grong"? Because, if so, the story about the skyid grong jo bo -- or Kyirong Jowo as it's often written in English - is wonderful. According to traditional narratives, the Kyirong Jowo was brought to Tibet from modern-day Nepal in the late 7th or early 8th century. It was then smuggled out of Tibet during the cultural revolution, narrowly escaping destruction by the Red Guards and, on the way, was kept secretly for a long time (years perhaps?) in skyid grong along the Nepalese border. It was then smuggled through Nepal and eventually brought to Dharamshala, where it's still kept to this day. I'm not sure if that helps... but that's at least the narrative that's grown up around the skyid grong jo bo that I heard in Dhasa when I was younger. Thanks again for posting! Wishing you all the best.
Hey man! I really enjoyed your video, the artwork is superb, the editing is magnificent, and the information is wonderful. My only contention is that you speak in a particular intonation that i quite distracting from the great content that you're giving us. To be clear, there is nothing wrong with your voice in terms of pitch, tone, or understand-ability, but rather; you place stress in regularly repeating parts of your sentence structure which lessens my personal enjoyment. Even if you don't cater to my personal sensibilities, I'll still probably watch your videos because everything else is so great, but I just wanted to get my two cents in. Great video! Keep up the excellent work!
Hey there! Very much appreciate the kinds words -- and the constructive criticism, as well. There's definitely space to grow on my end as a narrator and presenter, so I'll take it to heart. Thanks for posting 🍻 I'll be curious to hear your thoughts about episodes 2 and 3.
@@high_landa Ladakh became a country only after 900 AD, after the decline of the Tibetan empire. Before that it was a proto Tibetan state and before that western zhangzhung.

I am also from a Tibetic state; Although, we never adopted Buddhism, those in Sikkim, Bhutan, Lho Manthang, Ladakh etc did; All words we have burrowed from the old Tibetan language have to do with slavery or ruling: ᤕᤢᤰ (Yük) - Rule, ᤕᤥᤰ (Yök) - Slave, ᤈᤱ (Jŋ) - Fort & ᤑᤥ (Phö) - Tribute.

All this is to say, the Buddhists were quite keen on nation-building & subjugation of foreigners or even natives. But, all that is in the past.

Excellent. Like & Subs. I saw recently the ranking of the biggest empires in the human's history and this Tibetan empire is ranked #27 which is remarkable for a small nation i.e. #1 and 2 being Victorian British, Genghis Khan Mongols
Very well done. I have a question though, both Birikuti and Wen Chen married 33rd King Songtsen Gampo, also king Songtsen Gampo sent Sambhota to India to invent Tibetan text, and he also sent Gar Tongtsen to China to ask for Wen Chen’s hand for marriage, but why are you referring Trisong instead of Songtsen? Trisong is 38th king of Tibet and another mighty king but this story is of Songtsen Gampo. Please enlighten me
My Great great Grandfather who lived in 17th century is a direct descendent of one of the kings from Tibetan empire!! Tibetan empire was traditionally called as (BO Chenpo) greater Tibet Far as west present day Persia and far as east (sichuan )
Hey there. Thanks for posting. We don't know exactly what the size of Sumpa was at the time, but it's fair to say that the region is roughly analogous to Western Kham. Azha (or, as the Chinese call it, Tuyahun) was indeed a large part of Amdo. The borders of Zhang zhung aren't well understood (despite an enormously amount of speculation). The Kingdom of Zhang zhung, however, almost certainly controlled much of modern Ngari, as well as sections of Ladakh, as well as (arguably) sections of modern Western Nepal like Dolpo and Mustang.
actually its the other way around....the sun and moon iconography comes from buddhism or bon in tibet which predates mongolian use of it on their flag as they adopted tibetan buddhism as their state religion....
Tresong Deutsen was the great grandson of Songsten Gampo. Songsten was a great ruler and a conquerer but it wasn't him who established buddhism in Tibet. After the TIbet rose to power and prosperity It was Tresong Deutsen great grandson of Songsten who requested and invited Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava) born in Afghanistan and resided in Nepal and only then with the help of power from Guru Rinpoche Buddhism as established also the start of Vajrayana Buddhism also making Tresong the dharma King of Tibet. Such a divine and powerful rinpoche was eventually pursue the enlightenment. The teachings had to be archived so Tresong invited Chinese scholars and Indian scholars on a great debate on a subject of scripts. The indian scholars won the debate easily and thus the older version of sanskrit was decided. Great video, just wanted to give some pointers
Amazing video but Birkuti and Wencheng are not Queens. They are the 4th and 5th rank consorts. The one and only queen is Monsa Tricham. Tricham means Queen in Tibetan.
@@thupten4676 A real Tibetan will easily tell by my username. Don't you even know what Rangzen means? Every Tibetan is fighting for Bhoe Rangzen, unlike you lunpo.

Azha (or, as the Chinese call it, Tuyahun) was indeed a large part of Amdo. The borders of Zhang zhung aren't well understood (despite an enormously amount of speculation). The Kingdom of Zhang zhung, however, almost certainly controlled much of modern Ngari, as well as sections of Ladakh, as well as (arguably) sections of modern Western Nepal like Dolpo and Mustang.
14:59 The flags next to the throne are very similar to the flags of the Mongol Empire. What is the reason for this similarity?
actually its the other way around....the sun and moon iconography comes from buddhism or bon in tibet which predates mongolian use of it on their flag as they adopted tibetan buddhism as their state religion....
Make one video on gorkha empire too
Tresong Deutsen was the great grandson of Songsten Gampo. Songsten was a great ruler and a conquerer but it wasn't him who established buddhism in Tibet. After the TIbet rose to power and prosperity It was Tresong Deutsen great grandson of Songsten who requested and invited Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava) born in Afghanistan and resided in Nepal and only then with the help of power from Guru Rinpoche Buddhism as established also the start of Vajrayana Buddhism also making Tresong the dharma King of Tibet. Such a divine and powerful rinpoche was eventually pursue the enlightenment. The teachings had to be archived so Tresong invited Chinese scholars and Indian scholars on a great debate on a subject of scripts. The indian scholars won the debate easily and thus the older version of sanskrit was decided. Great video, just wanted to give some pointers
Amazing video but Birkuti and Wencheng are not Queens. They are the 4th and 5th rank consorts. The one and only queen is Monsa Tricham. Tricham means Queen in Tibetan.
Are you really tibetan or Chinese
Princess Wencheng is important but that nepali wife was just a concubine
@@WaMo721 Wencheng isn't important. She's ranked lower than the Nepalese princess.
@@thupten4676 A real Tibetan will easily tell by my username. Don't you even know what Rangzen means? Every Tibetan is fighting for Bhoe Rangzen, unlike you lunpo.
Just wow
This is amazing for young generation. 👏🏻 👏🏻
