At the beginning they were taken as liberator by many city states like in the case of Titus Quinctius Flamininus restoring Liberty to Greece at the Isthmian Games.
@@HoH Right, It was with Augustus that fascination for Greece will start, he even make tourism on Sparta, but future emperors will even develop megalomaniac delirious about Alexander of Macedonia, like Caracalla
Thank you so much ,I read about these places in the Bible but sadly am quite ignorant of Thier history.Its amazing to learn more about all this.learning about history is a bit like stitching a quilt together or building a puzzle and the picture slowly starts to take form.thanks again for all your hard work you put into these videos,it's really appreciated.
1. They were professional in the "divide and conquer" tactic and 2. They did not have to do too much to sow dissent between the already mistrustful and hateful of each other Greek states.
Bro I saw this video full and it is quite satisfying for me. It is as stunning as others. Quality of your content tempting me to appreciate it. By the way it is so much amusing. Your channel is underrated. You deserve more subscriber. Brother I am long awaited for a video on Skanderbeg.
I still have to finish editing the Skanderbeg video. I added some new visual effects so it should be better than any video I have uploaded so far. It is expected to be published mid-August.
@@HoH Thank you brother, you never provide any wrong and fake information in your videos so I watch your videos from several years. Most of the youtuber doesn't do so
How can you talk about the History of Greece and Rome warfare and completely leave out Pyrrhus? Pyrrhus had 3 huge battles with Rome and won every single battle. However Rome kept coming and Pyrrhus took so many losses afterwards he said, "If we are victorious in one more battle with the Romans, we shall be utterly ruined". Pyrrhus left the Peninsula for good retreating to Sicily. For a while he was the big man in Siclily until his allies turned on him and he fled Sicily. While leaving Sicily he reporteded said ""What a battlefield I am leaving for Carthage and Rome!"
And it's not really related to the main topic here being shown in the video, the conquest of Greek-states by Rome, rather Pyrrhus campaign is the opposite of that, an invasion onto Rome by the Kingdom of Epirus.
I enjoyed and learned from this video, thanks for making it! I especially love the maps with coloured areas to indicate which people controlled what territory. Those maps are already good, but could be even better if you included a time-scale. for example at 9:30, beautiful map that makes me instantly understand the situation, but I need to know *when* was this situation.
It's important to mention that Greek states,kingdoms, democracies, oligarchies, and tyrannies,were just shadows of their former selves. However, combined, they could match the Romans, as the Greeks, even in their difficult situation,marked by constant civil wars, ethical decline, and corruption,didn't lack courage, vigor, and military skill. In fact, Greece was richer than Italy. Greek hoplites in the Hellenistic era were professional soldiers, while Republican Romans were conscripts. Greeks had the edge in military technology, such as catapults and other war machines, as well as better armor and weaponry. Many confuse the later Imperial Romans with the earlier Republican Romans, who were equipped with basic, mediocre gear. The Greeks had superb cavalry, including light, heavy, and cataphracts, and a formidable navy; however, they didn't fully utilize their abilities."
The Irony is that the latins in the end lost everything to the Hellenes, their empire after Heraclius, even their name ended up meaning Greek in the 20th century (Rhomios=Greek). "Hellenic is the superior language of the world, you Italian, what reason do you have to boast?" Theodore Laskaris, emperor of Rhomaioi, 13th century.
Greece was part of Macedonian empire then. And some part of illyria as well. Also Romans liberated Greece for what purposes to gain control and declare 📜 that Romans are the ruler. Or was to divide the kingdoms apart to gain control over it.
Great video again,many thanks.Would you consider doing a video on German small scale actions on the Russian front in WW2 as they are so hard to find,again many thanks
I would, but the focus for next few videos lies around the medieval Balkans, Central Europe and Ottoman Empire to force myself to get better at animating 😉
great video once more greeks were fighting each other and thus they were conquered like it happened with the Turks centuries later on and in so many occassions in their history.
@@HoH that will be great. i would suggest since you covered the conquer of greece by the romans to continue with the byzantine empire and then go to the ottomans since you will have a continuation. this will help your viewers to better comprehend the situation.
Rome didn't conquer Classical Greece but Hellenistic Greece. Classical Greece ends with the rise of Macedon. After Alexander the Great, next centuries are known as Hellenistic. Duhh. So much for a historical context
@@dziosdzynes7663 they moved the capital to Constantinople which was a Greek city which became a Roman city then the capital of the Ottoman Empire and now is the capital of Turkey By the way Constantinople was the capital much longer than Rome Italy ever was, plus it had serval emperors that were of Greek heritage that became apart of the ruling elite in Constantinople So my question is who conquered who because for the last 900 years of the Roman Empire no one could tell the difference between Roman and Greek empires
How is it possible that these exact and precise details are known from times so long ago? Is it not true that most of this material is merely speculation?
@@dragooll2023 In the case of classical Ancient Greece, writings from the 5th century BC somehow survived to be copied by monks in the 10th century AD? Sorry, the new system is BCE and CE, isn't it?

The Greeks lost from Romans because they were totally STUPID. The Greeks were not united. If ALL the Greeks were united then the Romans could lose Rome at 12 months!!! I know people that you do not understand the power of the Greeks , so i must explain! When i say "if the Greeks were united" then i mean "if the greek kingdom of Macedon , ALL the Greek states of south mother Greece , ALL the Greek states of Great Greece , ALL the greek states of Bosporus , the greek kingdom of Kirinaika , the greek kingdom of Alexandria (fake name-Ptolemaic empire) , the greek kingdom of Antiochia (fake name-seleucid empire) , the greek states of Thrace and the greek states of Cyprus WERE UNITED , then the Romans could stand NO CHANCE against the Greeks!!!" .It would be IMPOSIBLE for the Romans to win! Just imposible!

thanks a lot for this short and quick story
Interesting video, this period/topic was not covered well at school or in the books/videos I read/saw before.
I really enjoy your content and production quality. You do good work!
Wow this video is nice. I liked the music.

we have underestimated Romans and they arrived with better weapons and a more disciplined army than us

Please do one on the sikh empire
That's a great suggestion, I'll make note of it!
@@HoH please do the sikh invasion of Afghanistan as well and tell other youtube channels to do it .I feel its criminally underated
I recommend u slow ur presentation. Size of armies and composition will help too.

Yea Macedonia was a northern Greek kingdom that basically had to conquer the Greek city states in order to unify Greece
Raised to the ground seems off to me but I guess raised used to mean bring down
It's "razed" meaning "totally destroyed."

Funnily enough one of my upcoming videos is about the origins of the Ottoman Empire... I might create a series out of its entire history!

Smash that like button. Lets go!
You should start a for-pay History channel that could be used by students and teachers. You could do a whole syllabus for a history class -$$$$$$$$
And then they became Eastern Roman Empire themselves
So when you say "classical Greece 359-201" you mean Hellenic Greece?
Humans really love their wars...
With much much difficulty
Where is my country: Kingdom of THRACE (460 BC - 46 AD) ???
Very nice overview of Ancient Rome and Greece. Could you do one on World War I? And could you do a presentation on The Salem Witch Trials?
No
Rome didn't conquer Classical Greece but Hellenistic Greece. Classical Greece ends with the rise of Macedon. After Alexander the Great, next centuries are known as Hellenistic. Duhh.

I'd like to hear more about Korean history. It's a topic not a lot of people talk about it seems.

you mean hellenistic greece
Yo
I always wonder if Rome conquered Greece or Greece conquered Rome.
😃
None. Rome was just another Greek city state.
Both
@@dziosdzynes7663 they moved the capital to Constantinople which was a Greek city which became a Roman city then the capital of the Ottoman Empire and now is the capital of Turkey
By the way Constantinople was the capital much longer than Rome Italy ever was, plus it had serval emperors that were of Greek heritage that became apart of the ruling elite in Constantinople
So my question is who conquered who because for the last 900 years of the Roman Empire no one could tell the difference between Roman and Greek empires
Classic Greece never existed cos Greece in ancient times don't exist only few hellenic city-villages
How did rome conquer Macedon
You can just watch the video you are commenting:how Rome conquered Greece.
You can find out in the video about how rome conquered greece
They're not talking about you you don't even understand what you listen to. You have to check slavic tribes
