The ironic part is that the last emperor of Rome was named Romulus Augustus. Within every great empire there is a beginning and an end.
Yea its not like it was a commom name or anything
Maybe the last president will be named George
@@juliangiangrande7353
The last president of the US was JFK.
Solaire of Astora good point
Rome lives
I live and breathe ancient Rome history❤️ more of this please🙌thanks for posting!
Most whites do
So you would know they built on top of more advanced work and weren’t that special
Unfiltered Thoughts stupid comment.
@@unfilteredthoughts2004 after running across usernames like "black trojan/Spartan" and the like that it's not just the whites who love the rich history of Greco and Roman history. Unlike modern politics which is designed to keep people split and at each other's throats, history can unite
@@unfilteredthoughts2004 ur a dickhead.
We out here, in the wilderness, drinking wolf milk.
Awesome story! Love the Roman history tales and legends! Do the legend/tale of the heroine Lucretia!
It began with Romulus and ended with Romulus...if one does not count Julian Nepos or Syagrius.
I'd like to see the story of Sporus explained. It is one of my favorites as far as Roman history goes.
Can you do a video on Catherine de Medici
Dear Legends of History can you make the story of Marcus Aurelius and Nero please
Y'all forgot Remus!
He went on to star in a racist Disney movie.
And was a teacher at Hogwarts.
Holy shit this story is way darker then I remembered
You were given a politically correct version in the past.
@@thor2070 I remember it being messed up but Damn I guess I was given a watered down version
Great video!
The ultimate powerful alpha of all werewolves he would destroy Dracula with one swift punch
Augustus gorgeous is the best
Romulus and Remus/ Cain and Abel
Dang me and my twin brother have beat up on each other lot I don't think I would kill him for leaping over my wall lol
Rome is a legend, I wonder why Alexander of Macedonia never fight any battle with Rome????
Those were children if fallen angel
Because his father's dream, was to punish the Persians for their crimes against Greece. He had no reason to attack the Romans.
@@BillViolator Rome didn't exist then.
@@leovandijk2619 It did, it just wasn't as we know it today.
@@BillViolator yes I agree, my point was in that time Sicily was under Macedonian rules. Rome was busy fighting Cartage (remember Hanibal, and his father early) Rome look like 3 world country? So Alexander has not really economic reason to get involved with Rome. Letter after his death their was 100 years war. The story about Rome now is born in the 15/16 sentury by Vatican, so Greece and Rome become favorite country to create a story about history (fake history) even the calendar and the number of senturis are not correct.
But did he have DRAGONS?!
Daenerys Targaryen I’m sorry the show screwed your character arc.
@@atlissgrey318 trust me I like it better this way. They can live in my new world or they can die in their old one
Daenerys Targaryen Girl, eat a snickers bar and read the books.
@@atlissgrey318 books or no books the result is the same confirmed by George. Why don't you go threw a brush at another mirror 😂
This is real life events you poser little bitch lol
I love Roman history! Fun fact about Romulus and Remus' infancy, the original latin says Lupa which most people assume means she-wolf. There is a possibility though that it was instead a prostitute raising the children instead of a literal she-wolf because Lupa was slang for prostitute back then. At least that's what my old Latin teacher told me. Great video! Looking forward to more Roman history!
Thats interesting! I like the idea that they were raised by wolves tho.
“Fact” LoL.
makes more sense thats for sure
@@kevin6293 Your comment based on not having very good reading comprehension of the one you replied to: LOL
“Modernity is a tribe of pygmies furiously trying to bury the Giants that came before them so as not to feel inadequate.”
mr. ALLcaps that quote is brilliant.
binary thinking is dumb
Romulans wouldn't have done so well if it wasn't for their cloaking devices.
this fkin wins the internet
The Sabine women weren't raped during the festival, the word 'rape' comes from the Latin 'rapere' meaning to seize something, so 'The Rape of the Sabine Women' means that the women were stolen from their families during the games. It's only relatively recently that the word has taken on other connotations.
The man that created a city, the city that united a country, the country that created an empire
when it comes to the Rape of the Sabine its important to note that rape actually had different connotation in the past than it does now. It actually meant more along the lines of abduction or kidnapping.
Also, the senators whom supposedly murdered Romulus supposedly reported that at the time of his murder a large fog swept over the area and the king ascended in a ray of light and he became a god.
@@FlaviusConstantinus306 Maybe, but the women did interfere between the romans and the sabins, when they were fighting 9:08. A victim wouldn't intervene for her aggressor
Really says ALOT about Roman culture
great history lesson ,Hope you make one on Nimrod the hammite !.

Will you ever do legends of the United States, like John Henry, Johnny Appleseed, Paul Bunyan, Pecos Bill, etc?
I've got some ideas for an American president series so possibly, yes
@@thelegendsofhistory That would also be cool, you are very good at just giving facts and leaving out any personal political bias and I would love to see American Presidents presented in that way. We often dont get to examine history from an angle of neutrality and I think too many of our resources are skewed one way or the other. But your videos stick to facts and evidence which is why they are great.
Thank you for saying so :)
Sure I'd like to hear more the way its taught two guys got raised by a wolf and shazam Empire.
Never heard about the man that raised them for example.
The first king was named Romulus, and the first emperor Augustus. The last emperor of western Rome was called Romulus Augustus.
I absolutely love this story. Never knew the beginnings of Rome before this. Thank you.
I do feel that this sounds alot like the story about Cyrus, and his humble start in life.
Can you please do a video on Tadatsune Shimazu.
Fantastic video could you please do a video about Spartacus and the others of the servile war
As much as I'd love to believe that the Roman men _courted_ the Sabine women, I can't.
It was a giant rape-fest and we all know it.
In a movie, men said of Julius Caesar that for a god he sure bleed a lot, after his killing.
I wish we had stuff on his actual reign, it was what, 30 years or so?
The rape of the sabines was an awful event but it kept a culture alive for the next 2000 plus years and led to the development of Western Civilization. Show me one culture that is 100% innocent and then I'll cede the moral high ground. I think in a lot of cases, the end justifies the means.
You mean whats left over the wounded make due with what they can.
Please do THE FORFATHERS OF THE LATINS OR THE FATHER OF THE MACEDONIANS
I just finished reading I, Claudius, so this was fun to watch. Thanks!
very nice. may be some tales of Etruscans or Virgil
I have a feeling Remus and Romulus didn't fight but built cities together and competed in making their city better.
Very good, glad I sub'ed.
Likewise, irish high King known as Cormac Mac Airt, was raised by a wolf.
I just watched The First King, on Amazon last night. Was confused until I heard the main characters names. That movie had no historical standing lol!!
I find Titus livius's account interesting as he provides multiple opinions on moments when the history is shaky. He uses the classical version and adds a more realistic version of the tale
3:41 basically, it's a metaphor about patriotism and loyalty. "your country before everything else"
Also, according to Livy, Romulus said "so shall it be henceforth with every one who leaps over my walls." Romulus supposed killing of Remus wasn't (just) a message to his people, but also a message to foreigners and invaders. "No matter who you are, no matter how close you were to Rome (like a past ally or a former leader), if you disrespect Rome (or try to invade -> ,,everyone who leaps over my walls"), you will be punished"
And third, it's probably a metaphor about duality: the glory (Romulus) and sins (killing of Remus) of a great civilization. You can't have the first without the second. No civilization was perfect and romans were sincere and probably recognised a harsh truth.
Or maybe he didn't kill Remus and it's just a dramatic way of saying the two brothers quarreled and never spoke again after that incident. After all, we do have a modern saying "he/she is dead to me".
Do your conquering between 7am and 5pm.
Romulus's father, he had power.
I would love to see you cover Sulla and his Civil War.
Great stuff!
His friends called him Rommy
Rom the Bomb. Big Rommy.
The Notorious R.O.M. 😁
Romey Rome.
@@jujupancakes9310 I approve all of these.
Its not legend!!!Romul Yellow Star in the Sky!!!
I enjoyed this video
I love hearing of Rome and it’s history.
Rome "borrowed" the Greek form of government and religion.
Greeks borrowed Religion and Math and Architecture from Egyptians as well.
@@nzwaywish NOT TRUE AT ALL.
The greek religion has nothing to do with the egyptian religion take your pan egyptian crap and seel it elsewhere.
@@marcelcostache2504 it does. The pantheon of gods are literally the same Hercules is Heru. Before greeks had culture they studied in Egypt and learned everything. Neith is Athena. The greeks themselves credit the Egyptians. When greeks were in the dark ages they had came to Egypt and studied. How they did they not get their culture from North Africa?
Rome ain’t shit but one big gay overrated sodom and Gomorrah
Marcel Costache lol they stole everything from Egypt lol
I've always loved mythology, and i really like how this channel narrates the stories
Saludos desde chile
In the struggle for power? I believe that Romulus was assassinated.
Seems like Romulus was Azazel personified?
ROMA!
Do the Etruscans, please and thank you.
PUPPY POWER
Next do one on kratos. Lol 😂
This video was great. Excellent
Romulus Star Empire
So this nigga is basically Mowgli
So... The Moses story 2000 years later, mixed with Cain and abel 3000 years later
GREAT STORY TELLING. I wanted a 2 min video but this was so captivating I stayed and liked. 👌🏾
To be fair, the "Reman Empire" would not have sounded as awesome...
@pjm5437 Remoran sounds badass
@pjm5437 agreed that would have been bad ass
I wonder if you could do the era for the Roman Republic to the point where the Goths invaded for the first time, and sack Rome, and Cincinnatus fights them off.
The legend is real
If you're gonna do the Roman Empire, do the story of the root of it all coming to an end. Constantine the Great and his mother Helena. The reason Christians are able to practice with freedom to this day.
they invented pizza
I was born on April 21 1998 so I now share my birthday with Rome?!
Romulus Disappeared like Jesus....Ironic
Yeah. The only difference is Jesus is the only One worth mentioning.
Romulus: 🤕😵
Jesus: 🫅🥳
The only time I’ve ever heard of Romulus and Remus was in Summer 🏫 which is also the only time in any school that I’ve been in that mentioned a Roman myth or anything to do with Rome or ancient times.
Great video! I had heard of the story of Romulus and Remus as infants and being raised by a wolf, but I didn’t know Romulus founded Rome itself or that he killed Remus.....such parallels with the Bible are interesting.
ROMA!!!
just want to say that the art used is actually later roman armour, nothing that early romans’ would’ve used.
why king latinus desapered from modern history?
American Romul is Great Woman!!!!Silver Star!!!In Orion!!!
I loved the videos before.. But man, the production in the latest ones, so good!
He is the founder of Rome and ancestor.
Rome basically usurped The Etruscans & appropriated / assimilated their culture & Greek culture. Gladiatorial games were originally Etruscan funerary rites if memory serves...
Can't help but see similarities to certain Old Testament stories. I love how certain themes turn up in every culture :)
Rhea wasn't buried alive? That was supposedly the punishment for any Vestal Virgin who broke her vow of chastity wasn't it?
Great video- really interesting. I love ancient history & the artworks you chose to illustrate the video were good choices
Funny thing is Etruscans where not even Indo-europeans but from what historians tells up where a semitic tribe, y have a hard time believing it but apparently its true.
@@marcelcostache2504 I hadn't heard that, that's very interesting. Archaeologists/ historians are learning that the ancient world was more connected than previously thought & people were able to migrate great distances. DNA & other dental testing has been yielding some pretty interesting results regarding how much people moved around
@@yensid4294 go read up my friend apparently the etruscans migrated from some islands on the egean see i have no idea if its true or not its just a theory, the other theory is that the italic tribes migrated from the balkanic peninsula some 8000 years ago.
@@marcelcostache2504 Archeaology only had things like pottery & other artifacts to try & track human migrations. Linguists used languages. Hopefully as genetic testing improves we might be able to fill in more gaps of early human migrations. It really is fascinating :) Maybe it will help more people see we're all essentially the same big tribe🤔
fact is we modern humans today are all the result of human migrations indo-europeans, semitic, niponic-hun-mongolian native even african we all migrated all over the place.
What the hell? They just came up and snatched women? How can people be this evil.
Lol there are far worse things than this not excusing it but still..
Did you ever watch Game of Thrones? That's how the Wildlings got married. They stole a woman. Think Jon Snow and Ygritte.
Awesome! Glad to see this is the first of many. Will this series include the Roman deities as well or just their mythos as many Roman gods were just renamed Greek ones?
Will probably throw in some mythology here and there after the monarchs are done.
Loved the video. An idea for a video, st. Florian.
paganism and forklore
Interesting timing given that the myths and legends podcast was focused on this the past two weeks.
Amenon1994 law of attraction maybe?
Most enlightening as always. 👍
King Malcolm III
The story of Shadrak, Meshak and Abendigo
Final fantasy?
👍
Nice 🤘🏾😁💯
allegedly raised by wolves
The lone wolf dies but the pack survives.
@@nzwaywish NEAT
Will you do Greek heroes and legends/ cowboys and outlaws?
Would love to see one on Spartacus.
Romulus and Remus the twins brothers were sons Mars and Rhea were nursed by a Wolf, that story of a wolf in my Culture was a Lungfish and Wolf produced a river known as Ssezibwa means Musisi tebamuzibira Kkubo referring to earthquake's pass cannot be broked because Earthquake is a warlord connected to the Red planet Mars and the river Ssezibwa in my Buganda culture is also known as river Nile which belongs to Osiris Lord of Underworld, death and judge of souls therefore it means that the history of Rome, Egypt and their God Mars is associated with Osiris who is connected to Allah in Islam
to create the greatest nation there ever was simple warrior prowess and statesmanship isn't enough, a greater sacrifice is necessary: the life of those one loves the most...
The father of modern jewery Cesar=Czar=Kazar=Idumeian=Roman= edom
Oh no, you are either a Zionist or an African..jeez.
My Theory is that the Roman Empire is alive and is the church who controls politics and finance of the world.
I would love a history of buddha?? I feel like I'm in my old world history class with more details
