    More information about the video content bellow:
    1. Rhineland-Palatinate or Rhineland-Pfalz is a state of Germany, located in the west, covering an area of 19,846 km2 and a population of 4.05 million inhabitants. Rhineland-Palatinate is reputed for its rugged landscapes, as well as its wines from the valleys of the Moselle and Rhine. Indeed, this state produces 2/3 of all German wines, and is the only state to have a wine minister.
    2. Settled by Celtic and Germanic tribes in ancient times, the region was conquered by the Romans and remained part of the empire for four centuries. By the end of the 5th century, the Rhineland-Palatinate was annexed to the Frankish kingdom by Clovis.
    3. Mainz is the capital and largest city of Rhineland-Palatinate. Mainz was founded by the Romans in the 1st Century BC during the Classical antiquity era, serving as a military fortress on the northernmost frontier of the Roman Empire and as the provincial capital of Germania Superior. Mainz was heavily damaged during World War II, with more than 30 air raids destroying about 80 percent of the city's center, including most of the historic buildings.
    4. Mainz is famous as the home of Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of the movable-type printing press, who in the early 1450s manufactured his first books in the city, including the Gutenberg Bible. His introduction of mechanical movable type printing to Europe started the Printing Revolution and is regarded as a milestone of the second millennium, ushering in the modern period of human history.
    5. Trier is a city in Germany on the banks of the Moselle. Founded by the Celts in the late-4th century BC as Treuorum, it was later conquered by the Romans in the late-1st century BC and renamed Trevorum or Augusta Treverorum (Latin for "The City of Augustus among the Treveri"). Trier may be the oldest city in Germany.
    6. Karl Marx was a German philosopher, economist, historian, sociologist, political theorist, journalist and socialist revolutionary. Born in Trier, Germany, Marx studied law and philosophy at university. Due to his political publications, Marx became stateless and lived in exile with his wife and children in London for decades, where he continued to develop his thought in collaboration with German thinker Friedrich Engels and publish his writings.
    7. Johannes Wilhelm "Hans" Geiger was a German physicist. He is best known as the co-inventor of the detector component of the Geiger counter and for the Geiger-Marsden experiment which discovered the atomic nucleus. He was the brother of meteorologist and climatologist Rudolf Geiger.

    I was able to trace the ancestors of my mothers father all the way back here to 1487 with the surname "Weirick"
    This stuff is so fascinating to find and be able to see where they were from.

    It would be helpful if you had written the names of the cities you covered. Mainz, Trier, Neustadt (an der Haardt). I enjoyed the video and the history of a place I lived for six years.

    Thank you! What a wonderful video! I learned so much. I'm researching the area because our President Trump, his grandfather hails from Palatinate. I loved hearing about how many influential people were born in this small area, fascinating. It's a shame the freemasons bombed out all these lovely, ancient German cities DURING WWII. Have you watched the documentary Europa?

    I liked the history lesson, but was surprised at the mini biography of Marx that celebrates him as a thinker instead of mentioning him as the architect of a system of thought responsible for killing millions. I can't imagine such a generous treatment for other people with similar effects on humanity. The rest was very informative - thanks!

    • @Bruh-mz2eg
      @Bruh-mz2eg 3 роки тому +11

      Well he was a thinker. His theorys did not promote violence but rather a world without injustice (which is an utopian idea as we all know). His work was used to establish dictatorships/oligarchys and commit countless Genocides just like people use religious texts for their violent means.
      What I am trying to say is that Marx was not responsible for all those deaths and suffering and that it is kind of ignorant to say otherwise.
