Roma il più grande e glorioso impero della storia, la grandezza, la potenza, la magnificenza e la gloria di ROMA È AETERNA, ROMA INVICTA ET LUX MUNDI 💪💯
Many assertions in this video don't make sense. So, it was to "reinforce Rome's supreme confidence that they could go anywhere and do anything" (5:00)? But they could not hold territory north of the wall, and the wall itself was a confession that that was the case.
This is covered at about 2:45. "Unlike his predecessor ,Trajan, Hadrian didn't continue the expansionist policy... wanted to stabilize and consolidate the empire" They're talking about the construction of the wall itself as a feat that reinforced the idea they could do anything
The Romans did go north, built another wall between the Clyde and Forth and then continued up - there were roman forts up to Inverness. Why they didn't stay was probably a few reasons, the main one being resource extraction - they mustn't have found anything worth mining in the area (Britain as a while was known for it's tin, lead and gold) and the second main reason was probably manpower, the Legions were in short supply and always needed in other parts of the empire. Additionally the British tribes that were nominally 'pacified' did kick off from time to time so their lines of communication from the south coast and on to the continent were not always as secure as they should be. The Romans pulled back from the Antonine Wall not because of the pressure from the tribes to the north but because the Brigantes (who lived in what is now North Yorkshire) creating a fuss and compromising their supply routes.
The Roans took land because it had some value to them. Precious metals, grain etc. Scotland had nothing the Roman's wanted that they could not get through trade.
how did the romans know when pangia split and the earths crust started to devide and where the wall is built, the land mass on the north side was once part of norway clever engineers, in my eyes theres has only and will only be two empires, roman and victorian empires
Their empire was territorial very extensive but not even remotely comparable to the Roman Empire in organization or social-political complexity. No wonder you can still wonder around Roman walls all over Europe (and more) but won't find any tangible signs of the mongols' conquest nowadays.
China fell to horse nomads, ruled by a Mongol dynasty for 3 centuries. India was raided by Turko-Afghan rulers, was ruled by the Mughals right till the British showed up. So no, they had their own unique history. Mongols and Mughals are China and Indias, conqueror/rulers. In fact in India, they despise this past so much that there are news channel, where they curse Babur, the first Mughal King in India, don’t you know, its hyper patriotic right now in India just from the fact that a 500 years ago old ruler is being shat at!!
Comparison between ancient Rome and ancient China Just like the Maya and the Spanish，You should be lucky that there is an Arab world between them, or you will speak mandarin today，As for India, it has never been a unified country. It is a nation established after British colonization，and then learn more about history，Don't immerse yourself in the dog world

U know guys something really interesting. Polar and Arctic animals/species tend to be larger in general than their grassland cousins and even more so than their rainforest counterparts. Its the reason polar animals are bigger as they loose less heat, since their surface area to volume ratio is lesser. I know its applied for mammalian fauna, but aren’t humans mammals as well?! Why can’t this phenomenon be true for human populations as well? Although this, businesses of Big Nord/Smaller Briton thing might be the remnants of this phenomenon playing a part way before, like around the Neolithic age, or when Neanderthals still roamed the earth. I am in no way suggesting this to be recent as even within 4000 years of human history. Food for thought? Genetic drift like that takes a long time, and given how long back these migrations were, it might just be enough that by the time, of the Romans, this difference became noticeable..
There were black people in the Roman Empire. I don’t know why everyone says they conquered all over the ancient world but documentaries still depict the people as only white.
If the Americans are so mighty, why build the wall with Mexico? I think moving earth, building mega structures is way to perpetuate their superiority. No? I think the Romans, and Hadrian were thinking on the same lines…sadly but yea it can be taken with pride. People remember the Mongol conquest of China not the valiant defense of the Chinese. 🫡
Who wrote this? It's a ridiculous distortion of the brutal imperialism that was Rome. Hadrian built the wall because the Romans could not conquer the Picts ( modern day Scots). You don't build Custom Posts that are the length, height and breadth of that wall with the garrison that was. This is English propaganda. Their historians hate the fact that the Romans conquered what is now England , despite the fact the English hadn;t even arrived yet. Boadicea was a Celtic, welsh speaking queen, not English. So called Brittania was inhabited with tribes who spoke the P and Q forms of Celtic languages. The commentary said that the Romans 'could go anywhere' because of the wall. Well they tried,, and Hadrian's successor built Antonine's wall, further North...so much for peaceful Rome....and it was destroyed,, and the invading army of Romans lost 50,000 men. Modern Scotland has never been conquered, not by Romans and not by English..Alba Gu Brath!
Just so you know. All the Britons were Celts including those of us who live in 'England'. The Romans didn't consolidate their power in Caledonia as there was no great economic reason to do so. All the principle resources (lead, iron, copper, tin and the good agricultural land) was south of the Wall. The Wall incidentally was also used to 'divide and rule' the northern British kingdoms like the Brigantes and the Votadini. The Antonine Wall was abandoned around 160 CE following yet another uprising by the northern tribes in 'England'. Indeed the northern tribes in 'England' i.e south of the Wall were so troublesome that the Emperor Severus ruled the Empire from York whilst he took charge.
@@colinearnshaw7725 Just so you know: The 'Caledonia ..no great economic reason to conquer it' is a bullshit politicised trope created by modern English historians to diminish present day Scotland. We have some of the best arable land and had vast forests in that period to be found in the UK . Also, with gold being found in Galloway and the Highlands. If you read my previous comment properly, I stated that 'England' did not exist during the Roman occupation of what is now Northumbria and south. Britania and Caledonia as the Romans called both parts of the Greater British island were inhabited by peoples whose languages of Gaelic (Irish and Scots)and Brythonic (welsh) have been passed down to those now known as 'celts, whose descendants currently inhabit those areas. Certainly in modern Scotland's case, the facile and transparent racist argument that the Romans couldn't be bothered to conquer i.e. could not conquer, and that 'troublesome'' Northern'' (?) tribes drove them out? . Sorry, but any tribes originating from the Antonine or even Hadrian walls' areas would be in the midland of the Brythonic island of Greater Britain. Your anglophile lip is showing there, the tribes you mention were not anglo saxons, but Celts. In fact it was the further 'north' tribes: The Damnonii and the Caledonian tribes were the tribes that destroyed Antonine's wall and forced the Romans back to Hadrian's ( the so-called custom post). If anyone doubts the politicising of this subject, consider how Boadicea ( a Celtic Queen, with flaming red hair) is glorified in her failed 'uprising' by the same cohort of English historians, who deliberately conflate her with the conflated Anglo Saxon/British narrative of heroic failure . Whereas, the resolute , resistance and refusal to surrender, and the huge losses inflicted on the Roman incursions by the barbaric imperialistic Romans .Inflicted by the true 'northern' tribes beyond both walls is diminished and discounted. I wonder why this contradiction keeps raising its anglophile head?
I wished you were right, but you are not. The Romans counted the costs and the result and found out that it was not worth to conquer that Rough Country! At the time of Hadrian the Romans had an army of 400 thousand all over the Empire. The Scots could not have recruited more than 10 or 15 thousand and would not have a chance in the open field to any of the Roman armies like most of all other enemies.
the English got wiped out by the Normans in 1066 it was the Norman French who occupied today Scotland but it was never conquered (Scotland) then again James 6th of Scotland in 1603 took the English Crown (actually Norman French crown)!!!

“Reinforced Romes confidence that they can go anywhere and do anything”….. except conquer the northern Celts
Picts

and they were indeed super magical people which im sure rome feared.
If he built the wall to keep the Picts out he wasn't very successful Antoninus Pius had to build another one in central Scotland.
If, like they say in this video that the wall was a reminder that they could go anywhere and do anything, why didn’t the just take over Scotland? 😆
Because Hadrian was done with war!
The Roans took land because it had some value to them. Precious metals, grain etc. Scotland had nothing the Roman's wanted that they could not get through trade.

Construction of the wall didn't begin in 122 CE, it began in 122 AD.
CE refers to the same period as AD
Well it started in 122 AD and ended in 126 CE, which means it took negative 4 years according to my calculations
AD 122

To keep Celts out. Celts drank the blood of their dead and practiced withcraft!
And also because the regions north of birtannia were kind of useless and conquer it would just unecessarly stretch the empire more
Conquering Britannia was already kind of unecessary and was basically just propaganda for emperor Claudius
What's wrong with that?
You are aware that all the Britons were Celt? So that includes all the Britons living in the area now known as 'England'.

Did Hadrian ever come to England?
Adrian + Hadi = hadrian
There were black people in the Roman Empire. I don’t know why everyone says they conquered all over the ancient world but documentaries still depict the people as only white.
They were fewer than whites because they mostly came from the African provinces. And even there most where white-ish Berbers
The romans never conquered sub-saharan Africa
Because it's the majority
The minority is not important enough for it to be depicted
