      Well let's see. First let me say that although I wouldn't describe myself as religious nor conservative - I live in an area where many people are - so I'm weary of both sides of historical interpretation. There are a few issues with this. One is that it suggests the Crusades just began out of nowhere, as if Christians just did them for fun. It ignores Muslim conquests into Europe as if they didn't exist/weren't provoking a response. In general, it completely leaves out any sort of cause of the Crusades. It leaves out the Seljuk Turks' attacks into the Byzantine Empire, which is what directly led to the Byzantine Emperor calling on the Pope for help. It adds little text bubbles above the crusaders "Let's attack Muslims!" or whatever it says... A student watching is going to get the impression that they were just for fun, an exciting religious conquest. Now it also describes Christianity as an add-on to education during the time of Charlemagne when it was actually the centerpiece. I'm not a religious person, I have no stake in this. It's just interesting how it doesn't show (and even suggests to the contrary) how much of a dominant role churches played in education. Also, it acts as if the plague "undermined" the church...that's completely subjective and debatable. It could be argued that the church was strengthened after the plague. I could keep going, but those are the just the main things that popped out to me as I watched.

    I realize that some simplification is needed, but just to point out when Leonardo da Vinci was born, the Italian Renaissance was well under way, since the prior century, in fact. A precise date is not really possible, but I think there is a general consensus that it began in the 14th century, whereas he was not born until 1452. Petrarch is generally considered to be an early Renaissance figure and his work was most notable in the 1330's-1350's.

It was well done, and I appreciate how they made it short and sweet because I was taking a history course, in which most of these facts were referenced; it allowed me to stay interested in a class, which was not of my major.

      @abrahamlinkin2414 3 роки тому +4

      Columbus was the one who did in fact discover the Americas in the sense that
      1: He had no concrete knowledge of them before he arrived and thus finding himself in a new area unknown to him is called a discovery.
      2: It was only after Columbus found his way to the Americas that others began to follow suit. Leif Ericson did not cause large numbers of people to begin moving to the Americas, so his "discovery" is far less significant historically in that there was little impact on the world.
      Therefore, Columbus being the first man to sail to the Americas and bring back information that led others to sail there as well means he did in fact discover the Americas for Europe to begin settleing there.

    13th century: "Finally we see some progress." Okay, this is not the Middle Ages, this is mainstream history. During the Middle Ages, NOTHING was more decisive than agriculture, not the crossbow, not the compass, not the windmill, not even the influence of the Church. There were a HUGE amount of innovations regarding agriculture during that period, and without those innovations, we wouldn't be where we are now. Yet, we don't hear of it, because you stick with that biased Renaissance view of the medieval Era.

    I sort it's important to point out that the foundations for the university system was first laid down in Europe in the twelfth century. There have always been "schools of learning" and Al-Azhar in Cairo and Qarawiyyin Mosque in Fez, Morroco claim to be the continually oldest because they are now universities. But there were many schools of learning in India and in ancient Greece too prior to this. I think it's important to point out that the recognizable system that we know as a university (with the recognizable university academic rankings etc) has been applied backwards to these schools. Does this affect this info graphic? Only that the Islamic world did not have a "university" we'd recognize them today. They had schools of learning of which some have adopted the university system since.

      @@Mitsuki_Yukito The system of "university" cannot exist before the first university was created in the 11th century. You can say a word is a translation and it doesn't indicate when that translation got that meaning. It's a translation and the meanings of words change all the time. If someone said "jami'a" meant "university" in the 10th century that would have been impossible because the concept of a university hadn't been invented, so they couldn't apply the concept. As an example, someone today could decide that "jami'a" also now means "airplane" (I know it doesn't, its just an example). You wouldn't then argue that because the word "jami'a" has been in use for centuries it means the airplane was invented years before it was actually invented.

      People sweep the Eastern Romans under the rug most probably because the catholics in Western Europe where not fans of Orthodox Christianity (the religion of the Eastern Romans) and in the Renaissance, people in Italy who glorified the memory of their ancestors in Ancient Rome didn't like the fact that Rome still actually existed, but maintained by ethnic Greeks, so they gave them the title "Byzantines". This rhetoric is actually really annoying and makes people generally completely forget that the Roman Empire existed through to the very end of the Middle Ages. It's really annoying and it's good to see others pointing them out.

      Well the Pope only has so much power (and Pope Innocent was especially not very respected, which is fully justified based on his acts) and the crossbow, as well as bows and slings where only banned by the pope when used against christians.

      Yay! You might get executed for a minor crime, or tortured or imprisoned in a terrible prison. You might even get caught in a war if you're lucky! Then you'll become either a refugee, a prisoner, a conscripted soldier, slave or perhaps even a dead body! But wait, there's more! Have some diseases, whether it be infections from minor flesh wounds or simply a virus from simply eating a piece of food!
      I know this is a bit cynical, but the point is that historical periods are romanticized as amazing times when it would be so cool to be there, but then society was pretty segregated between classes, death and suffering was around every corner and life would generally be ... well ... not so great. To me, 10 minute trips in a time machine would be a better idea.

    Great video Margreet! I like the drawings and the simplicity of it. The colours are also very suitable to the theme. Did do you do them from scratch or are they part of the software you were using? Would you mind please telling me what you used to make your animated timeline?

    While I agree with comments here that it is difficult to cover a period of history in such a short time and certainly important things happened during those years in the Americas, as well as in the Middle and Far East, as a Medieval scholar, I feel this video reinforces the myth that the period was a "dark age" where technology and classical learning and technology suffered, especially compared to the previous Roman period and subsequent Rennaisance period as well the related concept that the church was largely a force for suppressing learning.

    What was feudalism? Write a list of the terms that make up the social system.

  • @RageTeam2014

    I would have loved to see some extra tid-bits (ex : Mongol Invasion , First Use Of GunPowder in Europe , fall of Constantinople , and a few more events) but this is quite good !

    • @stormliberator8335
      @stormliberator8335 3 роки тому +1

      TID-BITS? You mean important events that should definitely have been included. Without the Mongol invasions, much technology and knowledge from East Asia would not have arrived to Europe until probably centuries later (since the Mongols where the ones to restore the silk road), and there would likely be no Russian Nation. Without gunpowder in Europe, there would have likely been practically no European global empires and widespread colonialism by the English, Spanish, French and others. Without the fall of Constantinople, Rome would have endured and the ancient classical Greek and Roman art and information would not have reached Western Europe to kickstart the Renaissance, which led to the Enlightenment, which led in turn to the Industrial Revolution etc... In conclusion, you can't wrap 1000 years of important history into 3 1/2 minutes, because it just isn't possible, especially when the creator of the video is approaching it from a Euro-centric, biased and unhistorical perspective. So there.
