  • Athens was one of the most influential and notable cities of Western civilization. With a history that dates back to the Bronze Age, the city flourished during the Classical Period, excelling in culture, politics, philosophy, and art. It was the birthplace of renowned philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, and stood out in education and the arts, with playwrights like Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides. Militarily, Athens played a significant role in the Persian Wars and the Peloponnesian War. After the death of Alexander the Great, Athens underwent changes under Roman rule, preserving its cultural heritage.

    Actually citizenship was given to a large number of Thracians and other non Athenians and the law put in place by Pericles that said that both parents had to be Athenian in order for someone to become a citizen was canceled rather fast. Also let's not forget that quite a few Athenian figures were only half Athenian (Kimon, Demosthenes, etc.). Also Metikoi could also gain Athenian citizenship by joining the army (in some occasions even slaves were granted citizenship after taking part in defending the city). Lastly Pesistratus granted citizenship to anyone who wished to come and work in Athens during his reign.

    What I’m learning from history is at some point Christianity comes along and screws everything up because people get fanatical about it

      That's an incredibly common myth, but that's still what it is. A myth. The introduction and spread of Christianity was like any other massive change, it left some parts of the prior order behind and embraced others. Claiming otherwise is like trying to say that the introduction of the Greek Pantheon was highly destructive to ancestor and nature worship in the region. It's a highly one-sided view.

      @@leartiberius1098 so the Roman Catholic didn’t go around killing everyone who didn’t believe Christian? That seems pretty destructive to me. Also a lot of people killed in the name of god specifically the Christian god and everyone who didn’t believe such were demonized and still are being demonized to this day.

    The 1st vote the Athenians ever had, the women won.
    When this socalled "great period", only males had a say in society.
    Isn't that a sign of devolution?

      We have a team of artists, we post videos with original comics almost daily. Take a look at our channel and see the video credits.

      He is wrong. This video has some AI, but common guys, just look at your channel page. This was such an unfair statement.

      ​@@SeeUinHistory you're right and don't worry . Even with the AI (if you decide to use it) there aren't many who can outperform your channel . It was and is one of the best and my personal favourite mythology channel on RUclips . I have recommended your channel to a lot of people on several occasions . So keep doing the great work .
      But just a small suggestion from my side , as to try to use human voices in the video as AI makes it of a dry tone ; other than the voice , using AI will be perfectly fine ig .

      Sometimes the comments section gets under my skin.
      And comments like yours really help me stay motivated. 😊
      We actually never use AI for narration, all our videos have human voice over. We've had, if I'm not mistaken, only 5 narrators with our channel so far, and in some of the videos they do use a more professional tone, a little dry, as you said. We'll try to work on it! 😉
