Nice channel may Athena bless you with good and consistent growth. Please consider making a series on Old Assyria and Neo Assyria. I feel like even the hittites gets more coverage than them on YT history channels.. Best wishes from Scandinavia
Fun fact the first ruler of pergamon under the Attalids Philetaerus was an enunch by birth, leading to him adopting his nephew Eumenes I which didnt have any known sons either, therefore the throne past to Attalus I Soter which was Eumenes first cousin once removed.
Hey Quill! Was watching your latest vid this morning. And it's going slow, lots going on not a lot of time to dedicate to the channel! I have scripts written and ready to go. I'm currently in the process of planning something quite big for AHG but its a lot of planning and logistics are proving to be a bit chaotic! But yes ultimately things are in the works, its just lots of other stuff taking up a lot of time as well! :D
@@AncientHistoryGuy There is indeed a small problem visibly, I have seen it on an 'annex' page, it has not appeared in the news ... but I do not see where the problem comes from ...Cheers, Phil.
One of the most interesting things I find about ancient history is how aggressive nations were back then. No mass communication and yet every kingdom was like, "Fan out as far as possible, we must own the world!" Sucks that Pergamon was caught between the expansion of the Romans and Persians. I just did a bunch of research on the Viking Age for an episode and was dumbfounded just how much they had managed to conquer.
I always find it amazing how much people of this timeframe ACTUALLY did. Take Alexander, Seleucus, Pompey, Caesar, Augustus, they were all over the place within a short amount of time!
Not to nitpick but this kept coming to my attention. Where you labelled Pergamon (modern day Bergama) isn’t correct. You labelled closer to Troy. Bergama should be further down next to Izmir
Fuck Off, one one cares about your petty, childish feud with Republic of North Macedonia. The FACT is Macedonia, while a Greek PERIPHERY, was not not part of Greece itself.
@@SirAroace nope, it was Greek, they were considered Hellenes by other Greeks aswell as considered themselves to be Hellenes, they spoke Greek, there was no unified Greece since the Myceneans by then so they simple were one of the many separate indepent Hellenic states and one of the least liked among all after the Athenians, dosent mean they can't be independent now tho, so stop lying and saying they werent Greek when they were

I think a great idea to do would be the history of Constantinople/Istanbul
I mean who controlled it, Important people related with it and the name dispute of Constantinople or Istanbul
@@stormyprawn Constantinople for ever!!!!
@@Armorius2199 yeah I also think it's Constantinople ^^

@@AncientHistoryGuy Well in that case there's something good to look forward to. Just happy to know that your well :)
Ah, these stories of walls at strategic locations, a question always relevant😊! Very interesting subject, another great video, very pleasant to watch!
Thankyou! Can I ask if this video is showing up properly on youtube, over at my end, it's not showing up on the channel page. :(

@@AncientHistoryGuy it really does make the rulers of today look lazy by comparison.
You got the location wrong on the map...
Nice video
You marked the wrong place at the map in 0:36
i searched this up out of curiosity because its my online alias and i was not disappointed
I am from pargemon(bergama)

Philetaerus , not Philetaetus
Actually its Philétairos because he was a greek :)

Wait wait wait.........A dedicated history channel that i'm not superscribed to? No no no that simply will not do.
The kingdom ended, but the city would still prosper for centuries!
Indeed!
I have to say your info is always on point. HOW??? give me a book name XD
All my sources are listed in the description! :D
@@AncientHistoryGuy Thanks :P
I love everything about your page but your opening title song is crap.
I am pretty sure Pergamon was the city of troy wasn't it?
Troy is a city close to the city of Pergamon
Oh holy croissants!!
Finally
I feel the same, uploaded it only to find half the video was missing! typical! :D
You really need to check pronunciation. The mistakes detract from an otherwise good video
Imagine just giving your nation to a foreign power..what'd the people think?
Pergamon is like the Rhodesia of Asia Minor
You got him holding his kopis upside down. Just FYI.
Oh yeah, whooops! :D
Anytbing else ever on them?.😅
WHY THR FUK DID YOU DELETE IT BEFORE
