      It's difficult!! For example, when I teach about WWII, I teach about the war in Europe, pacific theater and then the Holocaust. All these things happened at the same time, but in order to not confuse myself nor my students they need to be broken apart. It's a similar concept for other ages, like the periods mentioned in this video.

      Exactly Like the Ottoman Empire fell A little later (1 November 1922) then when Gandhi (January 9, 1915) returned to India ,And the Non-cooperation-Khilafat movement was launched as a matter of fact many Muslims in India only joined because the INC had agreed to support the Khilafat movement (Because Gandhi wanted to unit all Indians against the Britishers /The EIC )(In June 1920, an all-party conference at Allahabad approved a programmed of boycott of schools, colleges and law courts, and asked Mahatma Gandhi to lead it. On August 31, 1920, the Khilafat Committee started a campaign of non-cooperation and the movement was formally launched. This led to the official launch of the Khilafat movement as well.)

Flintlock weapons), they were still very much around during Lincoln’s lifetime.

Cambridge had a number of resident scholars who moved there in 1209, trying to find shelter. Within 20 years they had a Chancelor and administrational hierarchy which more resembles a modern institution of learning. Again, they're speaking about academics and not referring to the building.

But the byzantine empire was in fact the eastern Roman empire, and they considered themselves the Roman empire all the way up until their destruction.

The Roman republic was founded in 509 BC, and Constantinople fell in 1453. I think it is important to note that, while it was a shadow of its former self for the last few hundred years, the Roman empire lasted for almost 2000 years, 1962 years to he exact. No rome was not perfect, but it is far and away the longest continuous empire/govt the world has ever seen.

      What they won't tell us is what is found in the Egyptian temples and sacred tablets that are off limits to the public. That's where the secrets are kept. The Truth of the world and what has kept our species in existence. The Adam and Eve and Noah's Arc stories are just two of the resets and reseeding events that WE are told of. That's why they knew of the Americas. Only they did not yet know how to navigate the seas or have boats big enough to sail the Atlantic. They knew enough to bring Hebrew translators with them to help communicate with the indigenous people's. The vikings I believe just got lucky by traveling through the north seas starting near the Canadian coast until they made contact with the indigenous tribes and couldn't communicate. They were being attacked by the more savage cannibal tribes in the area. Their response was to flee as they were only a few good men in a smaller boat than the Spanish sail boats.

The chances that at least one heir was fathered on an Egyptian woman is highly likely and therefore cleopatra would have been mixed. It’s kinda like how people claim that the people of Carthage weren’t African, they may have been Phoenician originally but they definitely mixed bloodlines with native Africans after they established themselves on the coast of North Africa and therefore Carthage likely did have lots of “black” African people (mixed but still not pure Phoenicians) North Africa is still full of darker skinned people today and there’s a lot of “mutts” in North Africa (people mixed with more than 2 races), which is pretty much testament to the fact that interracial breeding has been going on in North Africa for a long time

    A lot of these eras just have a brief overlap, but some of these were nonetheless very cool and neat!
    But as an example:
    Samurai Era was 1185 - 1868
    Abraham Lincoln's "Era" was his presidency from 1861 - 1865
    So, yes, technically they happened at the same time.
    But the Samurai Era basically ended with the invention of guns, so much so, that most Samurai started wearing swords for decoration, diplomacy and tradition and instead armed themselves with guns.
    The earliest record of gun use by Samurai were their use in a battle in 1549
    So what we often think of as "Samurai" Era, is more like 1185 - 1500.
    In the last hundred years of the Samurai Era, it quickly dwindled to just a handful of Samurai who kept the path alive, and now it is kept alive through not just film and games, but also sports in Japan.
    The Cowboy and Victorian Era makes more sense, but the Victorian Era lasted from 1837 - 1901 whereas the cowboy Era lasted from 1865-1895
    So when the Cowboy Era hit, the Victorian Era was already partially on it's way out.
    Ditto for the Great Pyramids, these were constructed between 2700 and 1500 BC, but only took 20-30 years to build (this is all via estimated guesses and research)
    The Woolly Mammoths were estimated to have gone extinct roughly 4,000 years ago, so there is no guarantee the Woolly Mammoths were alive at the same time as the Pyramids, as they could have died in the year 2000 BC, and the Pyramids may have been built in 1650 BC.
    This is also a conservative estimates, because we believe they went extinct, as in, there were probably just a couple dozen to hundred Woolly Mammoths still alive. Their "hay day", back when they were plentiful, was around 10,000 to 20,000 BC.
    We just had a few stragglers survive until ~2,000 BC.
    And again, there is no evidence to confirm (but there is some to suggest) that this point is true... I hope it is! It's neat!
    So, again, don't believe everything you read, I could be lying, I could be wrong, don't believe me! Take the time to research things.
    But I doubt the guy had poor intentions, and for the most part, I think only 2 of these are potentially (but not confirmed) incorrect. So, neat!

The empire also included Christians, Jews, and other religious minorities. The Ottoman Empire's imperial ruling class included many Arab Ottomans, who came from Arabic-speaking parts of the empire, such as the Malhamés of Beirut and al-Azms of Damascus.
      The Ottoman Empire was founded around 1299 by Osman I, a leader of the Turkish tribes in Anatolia. The term "Ottoman" comes from Osman's name, which was "Uthman" in Arabic. At its height, the empire included parts of the Middle East, North Africa, and large parts of the Arabian Peninsula. The empire lasted for 600 years and effectively ruled its diverse peoples.

    A quibble on Disney and the Ottomans. The Ottoman Empire ended Nov. 1, 1922 with the establishment of modern Turkey. The Disney brothers establish their company in Oct. 1923. Their first full-fledged cartoon (all animation and no live action) was Oswald the Lucky Rabbit in September 1927.
    So the Ottoman Empire no longer existed when Disney was founded, even if was clearly in the recent cultural memory.

      Yes. Founded in 1889 (September 23--didn't realize it was THAT old). The same year that the Eiffel Tower is completed (March 31), that Vincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night (June), that Adolf Hitler was born (April 20) and so to Ludwig Wittgenstein (April 26) and that the 1st land run (of 7 total by 1895) occured in Oklahoma (April 22). Among a whole bunch of other things. Thanks!

      Fine--but I was not incorrect on my point. Disney's first full-fledged and fully (cel) animated cartoon AFTER establishing the Walt Disney Company was Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. And, just BTW, hs 1920 premier effort was not fully cel animated but relied rather crudely on puppets and was done for advertising purposes rather than being an independent animated feature.

      How old your grandfather is or was is irrelevant. What matters is, how old was your father when he became a father. That determines the amount of time between generations. So if everyone became a father at 33, that's 60 generations back to Jesus. Or if everyone became a father at 60, that's 33 generations.
