I 100% agree, the VIth century AD is my all-time favorite (I’m especially interested in the era “from Constantine to Charlemagne”), certainly for European history, but even worldwide, such a fascinating century. I just wish it were more smoothly spoken aloud - it’s a bit of a tongue-twister.
Makes sense. When Mt.Pinautubo in the Phillipines was erupting in 1989-90 (if I remember correctly) particulate matter carried by the jet stream to the West coast of the US resulted in unusually cold winters, with freezing temperatures where they rarely occur, and crop failures during that time period.
Heraclius and Justinian. Two Roman emperors who beat the odds to preserve the Empire, only to have all they'd accomplished stripped away by intervening history.
Or bad management... to hold territories, fixing walls and defenses to like new and adding the defences of this cities, and garrisons ,should only stay in cities while legions march.... Money, management and wise rulers could have kept the reconquered territories had they focused on what each region and its defences needed. And maintaining field professional legions. That, is why they lost territories.
Teotihuacan in Mexico also went into decline at this time. Also, the disparate settlers of Anglo-Saxon England went from small disparate communities of Germanic settlers to Proto-Kingdoms.
In northern Scandinavia the death toll might have been between 50 and 60% and places which have had been populated since late Stone Age became depopulated during the “fimbulvinter”.

It stopped the reconstruction of the Empire but it could have started again in the 600s, The Eastern Roman Empire was still much richer and powerful than the western reigns and it remained so for centuries before slowly consuming itself having to face Invasions from Avars, Slavs and most importantly Arabs and later Turks. The loss of Egypt and middle east was probably what deprived the Empire of the biggest chunk of tax revenue and control of the Mediterranean
Irish Tree-Ring Climatologist Prof. Bailey dismisses the Icelandic volcano as the cause and argues for a series of Earth-grazing comets starting in AD 536. A New World archaeologist has argued that it was caused by a super-volcano explosion in Central America and found C-14 evidence to back it up. However, it's not an either/or kind of issue. Near earth comets and asteroids can, due to their strong gravitational pull, can not only cause the atmosphere to become dulled for years but also set off earthquakes and volcano eruptions. One thing is sure: the AD 536 Event was a major environmental and ecological catastrophe which brought an end to the Classical World and set off the Dark Ages.
The evocative condition of ancient Rone in the 6th and 7nth centuries would have been poetic to the human mind and sight ! The Circus Maximus would still be there but in such a broken state that it would look so haunted of centuries past. The palaces of the Caesars over looking it would have been an eerie sight well past its prime splendor when the earlier emperors inhabited them. So haunting and evocative. More information of the gradual decay if the city should be published. We need to experience the emptiness of the center of the known world.
I remember seeing a documentary on this topic about 30 years ago. They claimed then, that the source of the catastrophe was Krakatoa, a volcano between the islands of Java and Sumatra. Maybe new evidence has come to light since it was made.
if this crisis didnt happen, it could also not only have prevented the fall of rome, but also it could also have prevented the fall of the Sasanids to the muslims.
If Maurice was not deposed, then the 26 year gruelling slugfest between the 2 Empires would not have occurred and the 2 Empires would have been in far better shape to face the new Islamic armies. However, we would never had gotten the story of Heraclius who was dealt with a bankrupted Empire, the lost of much of the Balkans to the Avars, Syria, the Levant and Egypt lost to the Sassanians, Anatolia constantly ravaged by the armies of Shahin for close to a decade and the Empire arguably facing their greatest adversary since Hannibal in the Mihranid Shahrbaraz. Heraclius with the last Roman army would go on an epic 6 year campaign, and with both diplomacy and his armies, he would topple Khosrow and destabilize the entire Sassanian regime, isolate Shahrbaraz from his Persian allies who still controlled Egypt (and perhaps the Levant as well), finally enact revenge on Shahin by inflicting a devastating defeat on him that would lead to demise of the great Persian general and force the new Shah to pay war indemnity and evacuate Persian troops from Syria and previously controlled Byzantine territories in Mesopotamia. Had it not been for the rise of Islam, Heraclius would have been the 2nd Aurelian, I would even argue that the situation he found himself in after the lost of Egypt was a lot tougher than any point in Aurelian's reign. His use of diplomacy and propaganda to not only prevent any usurpation after constant defeats and lost of territory during the first decade of his reign but actually convince both the nobles and Church to unite under him and give him their full support is actually astonishing, if only the late Western Roman Emperors had that Heraclian charisma.
@@ronb7189 wow, this is intresting to know! feel free to tell me more about heraclius, because I am a history nerd as well and would apricheate it to learn more.
Fun fact. Byzantium lost its romaness once Justimian came to power. 4th and 5th Century saw major pagan persecution in the east and the cultural nature of Rome was forever gone in the West.
This climatic event changed not only Rome but the world. A book written by David Keys speculates that the climate changes contributed to various developments, such as the emergence of the Plague of Justinian (541-549), the decline of the Avars, the migration of Mongol tribes towards the west, the end of the Sasanian Empire, the collapse of the Gupta Empire, the rise of Islam, the expansion of Turkic tribes, and the fall of Teotihuacan. In 2000, the 3BM Television production (for WNET and Channel Four) capitalized upon Keys' book. The documentary, under the name Catastrophe! How the World Changed, was broadcast in the US as part of PBS's Secrets of the Dead series. Rome was shaken but survived and this is a testament to the resilience of the Empire and its people.

10:18 The estimation of 341k soldiers prior to the plague may have been an exaggeration, as it assumes AHM Jones estimation of 195k Limitanei troops was accurate but Jones himself said that estimating the size of the Limitanei during this era is quite difficult, other estimations supported by archeological evidence gives a drastically lower size for the limitanei troops, around 2-5 times lower compare to Jones initial estimates. -That estimation also assumes Justinian have managed to increase the size of the Comitatenses units from 100k to 150k soldiers when he created the Army of Italy, Army Armenia and Army of North Africa prior to the plague, however recent studies by the premier Byzantine historian today, Anthony Kaldellis, reveals that Justinian actually did not do a massive recruitment program prior to the plague rather, he dismantled the 2 praesental armies (20k men ea) which acted as a reserve force for the Empire, typically being deployed in troubled frontiers and used that to officially create a new army of Armenia in the Eastern front while Bellisarius the Magister militum of the East took a chunk of the Eastern troops and the Praesentals to North Africa, and later on, more Praesental units would be further deployed to the West as the wars went on. -After the chad, elderly Eunuch Narses campaign in Italy when he crushed the resurgent Ostrogoths (who undid much of Belisarius work under the competent general Totila) along with their Frankish and Alanic mercs, the Praesentals would just disappear from contemporary sources all together.However the title of magister militum praesentalis was still used as an honorary court title a practice the Emperor have already done even during the reign of Zeno when he bestowed Theodoric the Great with that title in order to justify the hefty payment he was giving him so he would direct the Ostrogoths living within the the Empire's Balkan province at the time to behave and serve the Empire.
I don't agree but .From my point of view Eastern Europe was always tracking constant wars .Big empires derived from little bit from isolation like the UK Japan .or Western European civilisation .To be able to continue Byzantine empire they could have tried to assimilate Turkish society by building infrastructure fortress other big cities not only Constantinople. Eastern Church has lost dominance because they haven't had space for expansion from east you had constant treat from wild tribes and Genghis Khan. As a Pole I would say that Constantinople had fought for having influences there ,however Poles decided to accept suzerainty of the Roman Empire and Latin alphabet .Ukraine was devastated by Genghis Khan .Byzantium empire could conquer north and expand to Crimea .Civilisation can from from a tiny isolation like Italian peninsula,surrounded by waters.Eastern peoples deliberately isolated Poland from the Byzantine world
While Europe got dried and and cold, the Hadley circulation might have simply stopped, and the Arabian peninsula could enjoy more moisture With more water, the landscape got greener around the Mekka. Better crops allowed a growth in the Arabian population and stronger forces against the surrounding empires

I think the evidence that volcanic eruptions caused abrupt cooling of Northern Hemisphere leading to famine is convincing. I skied during the El Chicon and Pinatubo volcanic winters, SO2 being the climate change culprit.
Love from Taipei. I'm starting to wonder if Justinian's later paranoia and subsequent removal of Belisarius from post of command a result of catching the plague.

It's easy to see why the cultural heritage of the early Caliphates have only ever been pushed back in Spain, and spread into both Asia and Africa. The Arab Muslims exploded onto the scene after a century of increasingly destructive conflict between the Romans and Persians that seemed to be judge by God himself given the crop failures and disease. The frontiers of the Romans and the entirety of the Persian realm all fell so easily because it didn't seem like God favored them, and that would have been simple enough for everyone across Afro-Eurasia to understand.

The most important thing, if the Roman Empire had not collapsed, is that the Russian Empire would not have been formed, and the world would have been much better off without it. Russia would have remained a Tsardom of Moscow on the margins of civilization in a subordinate position.
@@TomSeliman99 What else can I do? Aren't you taking on too much, huh?! Russia is a voluntary disciple of the Eastern Roman Empire and, in fact, even a legal successor, whether someone likes it or not, but it is so. But personally, I believe that the Russians failed to fulfill their role and brought more negativity than positivity to the world. The world would be better without the Russian Empire. If Eastern Rome had not collapsed, Moscow would not have received a powerful ideological stimulus in the role of the only stronghold of Orthodox Christianity and would not have formed into an empire. But perhaps, as the disciple, so was the teacher? Eastern Rome is not "Rome" after all.
Yes. But the time from roman conquest of Gaul to 536 is almost 600 years. That is 3 times as much as USA exist or 1/3rd more as the time distance to first colonies in modern US territory. In fact there is more time between Caesar and Justinian than between today and Columbus.
@maciejpomianowski8390 What's that got to do with the price of tea in China? You practically replied to me that the grass is green...your comment makes zero sense
@@PoetofHateSpeech Simple. The fact that Romans conquered Gaul against will of the people living there do not change the fact that 18 or so generations later people living there were Romans, so Franks invading and conquering the area were there against the will of the people, and as such, unlawful. If there was some remnant Gallic kingdom reclaiming the land we could, maybe, somewhat, call that "taking the land back", but Franks were outsiders, culturally different peoples.
Alas, we are way more sinful than these people and our modern states seem to fear more climate warming than nukes : parce Domine, parce Domine, ne in aeternum irascaris nobis.
This reminds me of the catastrophic plague of 1315, which weakened the European population and foreshadowed the Black Death in the 1340s ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Famine_of_1315
If you ask me, Rome met its own end by Karma... What goes around, comes around... When your entire ideology is expansion at the expence of others, it will eventually come back to bite you in your back side.

The VIth century is so criminally overlooked by mass culture and popular science
Instead of Gladiator 2, why can't Hollywood make a movie about Belisarius and Justinian.
I 100% agree, the VIth century AD is my all-time favorite (I’m especially interested in the era “from Constantine to Charlemagne”), certainly for European history, but even worldwide, such a fascinating century. I just wish it were more smoothly spoken aloud - it’s a bit of a tongue-twister.
There's a great novel by Robert Graves, "Count Belisarius". Allegedly it was popular among the US troops invading Italy in WWII.
Makes sense. When Mt.Pinautubo in the Phillipines was erupting in 1989-90 (if I remember correctly) particulate matter carried by the jet stream to the West coast of the US resulted in unusually cold winters, with freezing temperatures where they rarely occur, and crop failures during that time period.

I agree that the Roman Empire probably wouldn't have fallen. This was their true nail in the coffin.
The true Roman Empire had already fallen long before this event; it was all christian-marxist multicultural dystopia at this time.
