Rome was founded during the time of Biblical Israel (after the division) and almost lived to see Columbus reach the Americas... that's simply fascinating
+The Dragon Historian Those were the Greeks who called themselves "Roman". Yes , it was a part of the Roman Empire , but people who lived there were Greeks.
+Kolynk actually the byzantine empire was heir of both the hellenic and latin culture so they were romans and greeks
+Kolynk Yeah, they were noticeably distinct from the Roman Empire of the 1st century, however if you'd have asked they somehow what their nationality was, they'd probably reply to you in Greek: "Roman"
+robtoe10 To be exact, they are Roman of Greek culture. The Greek was already the official langage in East, so no reason to speak latin. But they were Romans indeed, they keep using the Roman Right, the traditions, and part of the culture, actually, the Byzantine litterature was very close to Roman one, which was heavily inspired by the Greeks. But to mark the transition between Romans and Byzantine (because between Caesar and Alexios Komnenos, holy shit there ARE differences ), maybe we should refer to them as "Rhomaioi "(Medieval Greek word for Roman) , rather than Romans , it would be more historically accurate.
+Kolynk
When people say this they completely misunderstand the culture of the late Roman Empire. The idea of a modern greek state inhabited by Hellenes is a modern idea and was not around in the middle ages. People living in the empire very rarely identified themselves as a Hellene.
It's also interesting to see that in the few documents that survive where the "Byzantines" talk about ancient Roman history it's always about "us" or "we" They had no distinction because there simply wasn't one, the Empire changed for sure, but to say they were Greeks is like saying Americans are British, it is a complete and utter falacy.
Started as a City, ended as a City. How ironic...
Great respect to Roman civilization.
Roman empire split slavic people, west take christianity from west empire and east take christianity from Bizantine Empire. Thats why we got now 2 diffrent religions. Christianity not only doom Roman Empire but make chaos in slavic people.
Wiktor Korczyński Shut up... As a Catholic i can say for many hours that Schism is the fault of Pope and German Impostors from HRE.
Weird, the first Romans could never have imagined that their state would end thousands of years later in a city on the other side of the Mediterranean.
+Wiktor Korczyński
Actually. That is only partly true what you are saying but I am not sure about causing slavic people chaos. There are Protestant, Lutheran, Pentecostals, Methodists, Oriental Orthodox, and even Jehovah's Witness (aposthropies included in case you didn't know) just to name some of the religions within Christianity. There are three separate denominations that you only stated two which are western and eastern but you forgot to include Nontrinitarian.

The terms Western Roman Empire and Byzantine Empire are historiographical terms. The empire never "broke in two", in fact there weren't even 2 empires. It was one empire with 2 courts. It was always the same Roman Empire until 1453 (although some could argue it ended in 1204).
Modern historians use these terms to differentiate between the two courts, but nobody living at the time was under the illusion that there were two empires.
The fact that even professional historians get this wrong frustrates me greatly.

Best analogy I´ve ever read
I like how Rome started (according to legend) as Aeneas trying to find a place to build a new Troy that would one day defeat the Greeks, only for his new Troy to finally fall right next to where the original was a few millennia later, it came full circle almost as though it was fate. Which was interestingly a heavy theme in the story of Aeneas.
so I wasn’t the only one with that thought. Yeah, Constantinople is only like a couple days walk away from Troy, funny, 2 days away yet simultaneously over 2000 years apart.

The Byzantine Empire ended on my Birthday
Polandball Historian No one ever mentions poor Trebizond.
Turks doesn't invade, Turks conquer.
no it wasnt
I always thought that Byzantium just kind of struggled until fading into history not long after real Rome fell. It was honestly amazing to see that they not only stuck around for a long time, not only that they kept at least a respectable amount of land for the majority of their existence, but also re-conquered the majority of the Mediterranean Sea all over again
Honestly, I may respect Byzantium more than the Roman Empire. Rome conquered, but Byzantium fought against a changing and advancing world
Their quest to reconquer the whole Mediterranean was, in hindsight, a terrible idea that ultimately doomed Byzantines for the long-term decline and eventual fall.
They’re the same Empire
@@iDeathMaximuMII They are, but we view them as different nowadays. Besides, one trended to grab for new territory (and host a new revolt), whereas the other had more of territory stagnation and attempts to reclaim lost legacy
Byzantium had that big resurgence under Justinian, and then several smaller bursts of power where they still managed to take over most of the eastern med.
East rome was always able to push back, heck even the ottomans had a hard time taking constantinople in 1453

That was not the problem, the problem was internal division, the population was too diverse, other than that the aristocracy had too much power beginning from 200 ac leaving the emperor's power weakened.
With a strong aristocracy, weak emperors, a divided empire and many from the elite always trying to get grasps of power it was only time before the empire collapsed, the reasons were internal, not external, the empire during the time of August's or ceasar would have definitely been bake to withstand the attacks that led to the empire's demise in the V century

@@chappie3642 No the real problem is that there was always a civil war for every succession to the empire all this practicing every year and therefore this made the empire unstable and vulnerable but there are 1000 other reasons
@@drkassio4918 there have been civil wars since the very beginning of the empire, and don't think the democracy was 100% stable either.
Under the empire the Roman civilization thrived, sure the civil wars were a huge factor, but without the other problems, the empire wouldn't have fallen
Fun Fact:
The Romans had a very powerful secret weapon called Greek fire. It was basically a flamethrower that was so potent that even submerging yourself under water couldn’t distinguish the burning. It proved extremely effective against enemy ships and invading armies attacking the Byzantine walls. This made the capital city of Constantinople impregnable. Unfortunately the recipe for this medieval napalm was so secret that it was eventually lost and the city finally fell and thus the reason why the Roman Empire likely doesn’t exist today.
Well modern science has revived it.
That isn’t totally true since they actually used greek fire at the fall of constantinople
@@saban3682 Very unlikely. The usage of Greek fire was recorded in almost every battle on both sides up until the 11-12th century when it suddenly disappeared. In fact, it wasn’t even used in the 4th crusade.
There are only 2 sources that describe its usage in the fall of Constantinople, and they’re both Turkish meaning they wouldn’t have been qualified to validate true Greek fire in the first place, especially considering it hadn’t been used for hundreds of years. Thus, these sources are unreliable and too few to be historically accepted.
The only logical explanations is that either some Ottomans confused Greek Fire with other incendiary weapons (which we know were used in the battle and were also commonly used all over medieval Europe), or that Ottoman historians recorded exaggerated propaganda to make the battle seem greater and more impossible than it actually was (which is also very common pretty much everywhere); hence why the consensus among historians is that it was definitely not used in 1453.

Rome was great in many ways, but embracing autocracy led to more instability than it solved IMO. The central structure in Italy should've remained somewhat Democratic, so legitimacy wasn't given to every other general's coup d'etat.
And a proper conquest of Germania, along with better linguistic and cultural unification efforts would've helped a lot.

Winston Churchill never heard that russians considered themselves to be roman (i am russian). Some of our lands were greek (and roman) colonies but nothing more. And greeks actually can consider themselves as romans because they really were romans. Not by nationality but as ex-citizens of roman empire
The Russian Empire claimed to be the third Rome. The world Zar, Czar or Tzar comes from Caesar.
For over half a century following the 4th Crusade's conquest of Constantinople in 1204 AD, there was no "Roman Empire" at all. It was just a handful of Greek city-states claiming the titles. If none of them had ever captured Constantinople, we'd date the end of the Empire to 1204, the first time an invader had entered the City of Constantine.
It's really depressing to see such a massive and influential empire slowly decline into basically just a city and southern Greece
NeverGreen35 You sound quite drunk
The fall of the Roman Empire looks dramatic on a sheet of paper figuratively speaking, but in reality what happened atleast on the western sides the empire split up rather peacefully into many of the countries we see today or saw after the Roman empire. There wasn't a massive war pushing the empire into a small city or anything. The people just founded smaller states, countries and claimed independence. Really interesting is that we should see the same thing with North America and the USA in the future, splitting up into smaller totally independent countries if history has any creedence. The same thing already sort of happened to the Soviet Union in our lifetimes if you were born prior to the fall of that empire.
@King's Crossing. The fall of the Roman Empire , truthfully speaking WAS MORE DRAMATIC than people today seem to know.
Western Europe, was always in the dark ages except from Italy which was isolated from Western Europe by the Alps and had nothing in common with Western Europe. Its funny how nowdays American Brits and Germans Belgians learn about the "Dark age " as if before that there was any light into the Western part of the Empire.
The only thing developed in Western Europe was Italy and everything else is bunch of military roads and military garrisons which later sprung into the cities we know today because the Empire was in constant war with Western European barbarians since the times of Caesar. Governing a province in Western Europe was more like a punishment than a reward for a governor.
There is nothing peaceful about the Vandals, Lombards , Visigoths. Goths, Huns , Franks, Celts , Anglo-Saxons and how they carved up the western part trough bloody wars of conquest. To think of it as a peaceful time is just idk- ignorant and as far from the truth than white is the same as black?
Western Empire was actually a collection of garisons with no commercial value except the Italian peninsula and the French riviera. Not many tears were shed over it and I find it super funny how today descendants of these tribes mainly Americans and Brits see themselves as being enlightened while a part of the Roman territory when in fact their ancestors - the Anglo Saxons Normans Franks actually hated the guts of everything Roman right until the very end of the western part. The Roman provinces didnt proclaim independence but were actually conquered by the tribes of your ancestors and proclaimed their Empires while the majority of Western Roman population emigrated to the East where civilization stil ruled.
The truth is not a single Eastern roman Emperor wanted to conquer the backward lands of Western Europe because there was nothing to be gain from it as ERE didnt even cosider the barbarians once romans except for the Italians which they liberated from the Lombard and Visigoth yolk
Western europe was in a constant state of war for 1000 years actually while the East achieved peaceful prosperity by guarding its borders from barbarians.
Western Europe without Italy was actually the outer poorest part of the Empire comparable to and African country.
You should give a second look to your history book actually.
And about USA: The first who will separate from the Federation is gonna be texas and California as the richest states who actually get 0.7 of the value of every earned dollar - the rest going into less developed states like Iowa. BAsically Texans and Californians pay more than other states in the Federation and that is gonna be the straw that will break the camel's back.
If you read the constitution you will find that no state has right to proclaim independence so proclaiming independence will probably be met with force or embargoes and total exclusion from the rest of the States. Unless - they change the constitution.

It’s amazing to see: The Romans started out as little more than a city-state, founded according to mythology by the son of a Trojan War hero and no different from the Greek or Mesopotamian cities. All of a sudden, BAM, they grow to be one of the most influential cultures in Europe, parts of Asia, and even Africa.
Slightly weird, that the Medieval Era was started by Rome falling, and ended by Constantinople falling. Rome lived long. Modern Historians tend to treat the Byzantines as separate from the Romans.
Because they were in many ways
Different yes. As one would expect. The east did last 1000 year's longer. But they were indeed Romans.
@@camronyearout1158 what made them roman? They didn't live in Rome, they didn't speak Latin, their architecture was very different to say the least, they were christian, they even dressed differently. They didn't even occupy Italy for most of their time. Besides the laws and considering themselves Roman I don't think they were Roman. What I do love about them is the intellectual and traditional ways they kept. Unlike the rest of Middle Ages Europe were it was very Barbaric lets say.
@@gandalfthegrey2592 Rome has adopted Christianity ever since Constantine during which they spoke Latin, their architecture was sure different because obviously a culture simply wouldn't just stick to the same style of building/fashion. Cultures evolved and Romans were no different it's similar to the likes armor, of course they wouldn't keep on wearing the iconic Lorica Segmentata. 1000 years is too long of a time to hold on to everything they had in the past.
In terms of language, Greek was always an established language of East, and was recognized as such by the Romans, the Roman patricians even used spoke Greek as a secondary language.
The Roman empire continued speaking Latin to atleast the rule of Heraclius, and even then Roman emperors after him still spoke Latin, like Justinian ii still spoke Latin.
In terms of location, the Roman when they built Constantinople has called it New Rome, and it has only seen as merely a move in location.
Besides, the greeks has already been Romanised and considered Romans by the Romans though they're look down upon by some. They are just like the Sabines were during the Roman Kingdom.

What do you mean "the Muslims never really made a lot of progress until the fourth crusade"? They had already conquered Egypt, Syria, Judea, North Africa, Sicily, and most of Anatolia by the fourth Crusade.
Along with the Muslim invasions and the Crusades, we also have to take into account the Byzantine Emperors. Because, quite frankly, many were fucking incompetent. It is rather unfortunate that at many crucial moments in the Empire's history, they occurred during the reign of incapable emperors. For example, if the Emperor in 1071 had been more skilled as a general, the Seljuk victory at Manzikert may have been avoided (and the subsequent loss of Anatolia).
Andrew Rendon Although Romanos IV was not a very good general it should be noted that half of his army left right before the battle. However I do agree with you. Especially during the 1180s-1204 area because the emperors at that time were too distracted by politics to stand against the crusaders.
Exactly ... how sad..
He exhausted the Byzantine military and financial capabilities which weakened their ability to fight against Persians. He reconquered most of the former territories but left a fragile and weak Empire to his successors.

@@GloryToTheUnitedStates6037 the eastern part of the roman empire had always a greek coulture due to the Hellenistic kingdoms that ruled the area before Rome.
When the division happened the east was still the Roman empire, but most of the people were greek. The language changed to greek, which is a huge difference from western italian rome. They had reasons for changing the language to greek.
The empire had a romano-greek coulture, but as i said most if the people were ethnically greek. (Not to mention that today's greeks are the direct descendants of the Byzantine Romans, so if course they gonna claim something from their predecessors. Its the logical thing to do)
Its not an extreme nationalistic idea to think that the eastern roman empire was somewhat greek.

Yes, although modern scholarship knocks 1000 years off that legacy by misnaming the East Roman Empire as the "Byzantine Empire".
@@ibrahimsulaiman9047 The distinction is often made due to the very different cultures of the Eastern and Western Roman Empire. While they were fundamentally the same nation, the sheer expansiveness of Roman history makes it preferable to treat them as separate entities.
@@jarynn8156 I tend to think of the term "Byzantine" as a deliberate attempt by the successor states of the Western Roman Empire to obscure the Roman identity of the Eastern Roman Empire: from Charlemagne through to the Great Schism through to the the Fourth Crusade and on to the present day.
There were always differences in culture between the western and eastern regions of the Mediterranean but this didn't stop either being Roman; the term "East Roman Empire" accounts for these differences without denying the east its historical identity and legacy.
@@jarynn8156 Very different cultures according to whom exactly? They both share the same Hellenistic and Roman heritage and the sense of continuity was much stronger that your understanding. For example, It's like me reading American history from some random books, coming to the conclusion that modern California is unrelated with the first American revolution, because of culture(?) and expansion.

Wooden Table where there is truth in that almost all of the cards were stacked in the Ottomans favor and even then they struggled in taking Constantinople
+Wooden Table Seljuks(a turkish khanete) conquered all anatolia exept Istanbul and the seljucks couldn't hold back against mogol invadings and they've divided lots of "beylik" (like karamanogullari,aydinogullari etc.) then osmanogullari (ottoman empire's name before becoming a empire) fought with that beyliks and byzantium at the 29 May 1453 II.Mehmed conquered Konstantinopolis after taking the city name it ''Kontantiniyye'' got it you fucking old headed crusade?
Turks and their fantasys of history. It doesn't matter where the Osman beylik appeared from but it's largest advantage was the pretty much already dead Byzantines. As a state it was far more stable than the romans at the time and doing what turks did weakened them further by constantly raiding their territories. Byzantium died due to the fact that the latins were constantly seeking to take territory from them and the ottomans kept chipping away till they were nothing. Taking Constantinople was no great victory. The ottomans brought around 80 thousand soldiers and the byzantines by this point barely had a standing army.
Also the reason why the Osman beylik was able to overcome the surrounding Beyliks is due to the byzantine territory they were able to eat up with ease.
Keep in mind the Seljuks after Manzikert eventually lost the majority of their lands in anatolia only being within the platue of it due to the Komnenos Dynasty. If not for the Angeloi who destroy the empire through mis-management, the turks would've never overcame the Byzantines. The Sultanate of rum could've been fully eliminated if Manuel Komnenos didn't focus on europe and focused more on anatolia while the Sultanate of Rum was having major internal conflicts.

Byantines: *Literally Conquer Rome*
Roman Citizens: You couldn't live with your own failure and where did that bring you, back to me
Actually, the capital city was permanently moved to "Byzantium" by Emperor Constantine, who completely renovated it and built new walls, colloseum, etc. in 330 AD. He renamed the city "New Rome" as his new boundaries included 7 hills just like old Rome-on-the-Tiber. The "Byzantine Empire" never existed. It was just the Romans recovering Italy from the barbarians. Sadly, there was an endless stream of barbarians waiting in the wings... By the mid 700s Rome was lost to the Lombards, and never recovered by the Empire. HOWEVER, the Franks always considered themselves "Roman" and so to the people of 800 AD it seemed only natural that the Pope of Rome would coranate their King as West Roman Emperor (after he conquered the Lombards). Sadly, Charlemagne presided over a population that was mostly of barbarian origin, with just a smattering of old Latin speaking "Romans" here and there. Rome itself was down to about 30,000 people from a population of at least 500,000 four centuries earlier. Despite Justinian's best efforts, the Empire would never be the same after the great invasions of the 5th Century, but thanks to the Catholic Church, most western Europeans came to see themselves as Roman whether or not their ancestors had ever been citizens of the Empire.

This region was late Romanized. It was famous for its excellent soldiers, frustrated but courageous. In Illyria (in the geographical sense) was indeed the most powerful of the Roman armies, in charge of watching over the Danube (nearly 12 legions, that is to say 130 000 men) .
5:14 : When the Western Roman Empire is a piece of France ....
It's crazy to think that syagrius could have overcome the franks and basically become roman gaul if they played their cards right, and replaced france in history. That would have been interesting.
Greeks and Turkey turks comes from the descendants of the Romans.
Orthodox Romans = Greece
Muslim Roma=Turk 😂😂
The French destroy our empire
If Syagrius defeated Clovis at Soissons France would have never existed and Western Roman Empire might have survived in Gaul.
Let’s all just be glad history went the way it did.
So I know now who's in Paris...
The amount of coastline impresses me the most. Truly the hardest thing to defend over that much time. The strongest empire ever.
Why coastline is hardest to defend ??
@@netaji-thebritishslayer esp along the Mediterranean, many invaders are going to come over on boats, so the invading country's most crucial objective is to conquer strongholds along the coast so they can then set-up camp and march infantry to the next strategic point. the invaders could be constantly attacking a coast line and attacking it aggressively due to its relative strategic importance making it an exhausting venture for the defending country/empire/state.
Once Rome became big enough, aside from the Persians in the east and the Germanics and Huns, they didn't have any credible threats at all, civil wars were really the main concern. The Atlantic coast didn't need to be defended.
I just noticed that Roman Civilization lasted about 1950 years, the same amount of time from Jesus' birth to the Korean War...

Make up your mind Armenia
A reference to Armenia constantly going in and out of Roman control, I'd wager.
For context, Armenia in Roman times had really frequent succession crises, and the Parthians and Romans competed to install a king loyal to their interests. Thing is, the Armenians wouldn't always accept these rulers, so Armenia ended up spending many years swapping pro-Roman rulers for pro-Parthian rulers and vice versa - hence the constant switching of sides!
Know I'm very late to this party, but hope that helps!
