I like how Louis XIV's Queen treated his illegitimate children with kindness. She knew the fault wasn't theirs and didn't take it out on them. That is the sign of a truly respectable and classy woman
That was more typical than you think. There's stories about Queen Maria Christina (Alonso XIII of Spain's mother) having a closer relationship with her son's mistress and her children than with Victoria Eugenie (Alfonso's wife) and her children.
@@areiaaphrodite also the fact that Queen Maria Christina, an Archduchess of Austria by birth, looked down upon Victoria Eugenie who was mere second-rank royalty (the Battenbergs being a morganatic branch of the Grand Ducal Family of Hesse-Darmstadt), the fact Ena (Victoria Eugenie) was born Protestant did little to help her popularity with the Spanish aristocracy
I feel bad for royal mistress’, they think having a kid by the king means that they’ll be queen/receive some kind of wealth, or be fully loved by the king, only to be shunned, paid hush money, and die a miserable death
The thing is, you don't really have much of a choice if the king chooses you to be his mistress. So you would just have to make up your mind to get as much out of it for yourself, family, kids (and maybe even your spouse) as you can.
her mother still managed to survive for like the next 25+ years or so oh and um what’s with people bashing parents from centuries ago who often only had 1 of their kids survive to adulthood such as the eldest son of Louis XIV:(the eldest one of his legitimate children):and the eldest daughter of the over-hated Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI both were as everybody already knows guillotined rather very publicly
First time I've ever been so early to a video its not even released yet hah! I simply adore when you upload, and I love using what I've learned to branch out and further my learning even more. Keep it up and thanks for all your continued hard work!
Right, it makes it even more incredible how she doted on the kids despite their parentage, I think she genuinely liked kids and sought comfort in them since she lost so many 🥺 it would also be devastating to know that it was likely because of her genetic issues that most of her children didn't live since most of the mistresses didn't have as many stillbirths or deaths 😭
8:00.... "King Louis lavished his illegitimate children with gifts, but while noble titles and millions of livre are nice, what they REALLY wanted was some History Tea Time merch!"......I cracked up. It got worse when you dressed their historical portraits in your shirts with your bags! I was suffocating, couldn't breathe. 😅🤣😂 😅
As related as half-siblings, yes, which is still gross but not as much as full siblings. Not really that big of a difference to me though but just wanted to clarify in case anyone was curious. If their parents were sets of identical twins, then it would be genetically full siblings.
@@andrealuisecandido1154 no there were half but both of there parents were siblings to each one . So they share 12.5 their dna mother and additional 12.5 dna for thier fathers side totaling 25 percent of same dna, the about as if would have actually shared a parent.
We all know about the British crown jewels but we barely know about the royal regalias of other countries. Please can you make a video about the royal regalias around the world........ Please 🙏🥺
There are a ton of great books about Crown Jewels around the world. I collect them because I love researching the topic. One is Crown Jewels by Prince Michael of Greece
I just want to throw it out there that the child mortality rate in the US in the 1920s was between 100 and 180 child (5 years and under) deaths per 1000. My grandfather was born in the 1920s in rural Kansas and has said that you didn't name the kid more then a nickname until they got to around 5-8 because "you don't want to waste a good name" in case they die as children. So while I don't disagree with the reasons above, we also have to take into account how many child died just generally.
Courtiers: Your majesty; we’re facing a succession crisis! Louis XIV: *looks at his various illegitimate children* I’m about to do what’s called a pro gamer move
All to naught, because his great grandson survived. Although, 'tainted' blood did enter the Orleans branch, who reigned in the 19th century under Louis Phillipe.
idk if anyone mentioned it yet but there is a rumor that Louis XIV had a black daughter with an actress. Her name is Louise Marie Thérèse and she was nicknamed "the Mauresse of Moret" if you want to look it up. It's a really cool story. She was likely raise by Madame de Maintenon at some point like the other illegitimates children and then send to a convent. Her whole life the king send her a pension and i believe there was letters exchanged between the two of them. He went to the ceremony where she officially became a nun (idk the name in english). All of this is very weird if you see her as a random nun, i mean the King seemed reaaaally interested in her upbringing. Many people visited her, intrigued by her potential link to the royal family including Voltaire who wrote about her: « We suspected, and it seems very likely, that a nun from the Muret Abbaye was his (the King) daughter. She had an extremely dark skin and she resembled him a lot. The King gave her 20k écuts (curency) of dowry and put her in a convent." Apparently she was very cocky and Madame de Maintenon visited her to order her to calm down and to stop saying she was the King's daughter. To which Louise replied: "Madame, the fact that a women of your rank took the time to come all the way here to visit me and to tell me i'm not the King's daughter truly conviced me that i am." There is a lot of video on the french side of youtube about her if you want/can look it up Sorry for my spelling mistakes btw
OMG that is hilarious with the story of the Madame visiting her 😆. You would think they would have just ignored her when she was saying she was a daughter of the king. But oh no Madame made a special visit to tell her otherwise! So yeah I'm with Louise Marie in believing OTHERWISE lol 🤣!
Excellent information, thank you. Strangely, despite being a despotic sinner, Louis the XIV was very religious... and it seems he cared one way or another for most of the children he had, with aristocratic women or servants. He truly feared God.
Don't judge XVII century nobility from 2022 bourgeois perspective. 😉 Back then infants death was so common and people were used to that at all levels of society. Moreover rich women who lived at court didn't breastfeed and didn't take care of babies. Infants were raised in countryside and later in convents or private tutors and they come back at court in their early teens. You might find it bizarre, but wasn't peaceful town,quiet monstery and heatly air with fresh food better place for a kid then loud overcrowded palace with lack of hygiene and space, full of sex, excess and adult's affaires. "Childhood" was invented in half of XVIII century and seeing kids as special creatures not as small version of adults start to change. For long time only by rich and privileged who could afford that - cherish and protect their offsprings. Poor still had to send their kids on the field or to the factory.
We live in a day at age where a 14-year-old can't go get their ears pierced at the ball with their friends but could decide to chop off body parts and it celebrated.. need I digress
Infant death was more common than their survival, unfortunately. Also, nobel and royal women often gave their children to others, to be their wards and educate them, until the child was old enough to go to court. So.. Yeah, not attending a kid's funeral wasn't that big of a deal, seeing that the bond, many times, wasn't even there to begin with.
It’s interesting how pagan-related views on fertility and virility survived in so many European cultures. Men were expected to father as many children as possible on as many women as possible while Catholicism was most definitely against it
I love some history drama lol, French court is one court I would pay good money to be part of back in those days 😂 thanks for this phenomenal video Lindsay. ❤
This just makes me scream. I just got out of a 20 year long intensely dysfunsional relationship with a DNA tested scion of Louis XIV (through the illegitimate side). He lied, cheated, manipulated, in such a careless cruel fashion. What was once a source of pride to me, is a sum ZERO end point. I know WHY they were deposed. What a messed up family.
Excellent pronunciation overall! Just a little correction. Dauphin is pronounced dough-FAN. Dauphine, the feminine of the word, is pronounced dough-FEEN, as you have been pronouncing Dauphin.
Been waiting for this video! Became obsessed with your channel once again, as royal history is starting to become one of my special interests (thanks autism) and your videos are so well put together and understandable for me. Thank you for making these videos, Lindsay!
Great video. A quick note or two. Marie Anne de Bourbon could not be added to the line of succession because France observed Salic Law when it came to the royal succession. Only males could reign.
Yeah so not even 1 Queen Regnant of France EVER but some people act like Marie Antoinette:(the Queen CONSORT wife of Louis XVI):was Queen Regnant clearly just so they can bash her no matter what
Philip (Felipe)V suffered from depression and in January 1724 abdicated in favour of his eldest son Louis (Luís) I. Unfortunately the young king died of smallpox later that same year aged only 17 years, had been.married verynbriefly and keft no heirs. His father resumed the crown and reigned on until he died in 1746.
Do you know anything about "The Man in the Iron Mask?" I was always interested into this story since seeing the movie with Leo DeCaprio. I was always curious about it. I enjoy your videos!
9:20, Honestly idc if he was REALY gay or anything(when I look it up, it says he actually WAS gay, but sadly got involved with those noble pricks) This child was so innocent & sweet I'm so ashamed that he died in such a way (As someone who has been gay since, age 16(same age this kids death)it's almost disgusting shit like this got away if u were a noble)
Meanwhile in Spain……. “Philip Prospero died after a seizure just a shy of his fourth birthday. His parents were heartbroken and baffled s to why their children have been so afflicted. The King wrote to a friend “I have sworn that I angered god for these excuses”. Philip and Mariana would suffer the death of one more son Ferdinand at the age of 10 months before their 5th and only surviving son Charles was born.”
Oooh, I´m looking forward to learning more about them, especially the Duc du Maine. I remember one of my first history documentaries (in german) being focused on his relationship with Montespan. and how over time the way of Madame de Maintenon got on Louis XIV´s radar because she helped the Duc du Maine walk again. I´m excited to see if there is mention of this and I´m looking forward to adding to this supposed knowledge of mine :)
So interesting, one can imagine all the jostling for favors and attention. The habit of using the same first names for numerous children was mind boggling!! Grazie.
Lindsay, there is some controversies about your sponsor Established Titles. Your channel name was listed in a big youtubers video about it and the name really stuck out like a sore thumb bc the name is so long. Just letting you know you might wanna put up a community tab or mention it in the next video cuz i’m sure lots of people read your name on that list! love you!
The moment your sister, with wildly different tastes, confides she also watches Tea Time! Lindsay you’re now a conversation starter for us. Lol thanks.
John of Gaunt Duke of Lancaster siyn of Edward III of England did better by his mistress Katherine Swynford. He married her eventually and got his nephew Richard II to legitimise his 4 illegitimate children the Beauforts on condition they wouldn't inherit the Crown. The Beauforts were very powerful at court since their half brother became King Henry IV. And decades later, a Beaufort became King, Henry Tudor, Henry VII, as the last Lancastrian, through his mother Margaret Beaufort.
“The 32 year old woman received a proposal from her 15 year old nephew, the son of her own half brother. But the marriage would be inappropriate.” No dip, Sherlock.
I am glad most families I poersonally know who have Illigitimate children in them have treated those children the same way they would any legitimate child, Times change for the better at least where I am haha. Though I am unsure what the attitude would have been had those children been known of around the time of their birth
Love your store! I bought 2 stickers to put on my new chariot (car) I already have crowns on it, why not stickers to let everyone know that I’m a Queen Regnant? I also got the Catherine the Great one too!
Honestly, first, I want to see the series about it all with multiple seasons. Second, I'm so freaking grateful for existence of the vaccine for measles. Like, every third royal here died from it.
@II well yes, obviously, aka the female version. I thought it was understood since women were barred from inheriting the French throne. There has never been a Queen Regnant of France.
These are fascinating stories, I don’t know as much about the French history as some other places and it’s all pretty interesting. For example now I will never be able to not think of Versailles as a giant frilly portable toilet smelling place 😂 it’s almost like I can smell it by thinking about it 🤦🏻♀️
Have visited, one really warm summer day, all the fireplaces still smell of pee. Male courtiers, who spent much time waiting for an audience with the king, would pee in the fireplaces rather than leave the room and lose their place
Hey are you going to make a video about your sponsorship with established titles? It's a big deal rn and you were the few UA-camrs sponsored by them for awhile before everyone else was. Love you❤️
You really have done a great job. Feedback: For the masculine pronunciation, it is Dauphin (doh-fan) not Dauphine (doo-pheen). You consistently pronounce the masculine like the feminine title.
This was amazing! Thank you for the amazing videos you're uploading for us! I have a suggestion, would you make a video of all Hürrem Sultan's children? Thank you for this video, once again. ❤
Well, since barely anybody in the aristocracy raised their own children anyway, they absolutely have a favorite. They didn’t care/hide things like that. I don’t care WHO you are. You always have a favorite child. If you say no, I don’t believe it. But, they didn’t have to pretend.
Even in the 1600s, it should have been obvious that a teenaged boy at the mercy of ‘brutal, insinuating, and completely unscrupulous’ Lorraine and his possibly even worse friends could hardly be considered to be at fault. But then again Louis’s own dear mother had arranged for him to be meddled with at fifteen, and he clearly had no sense of perspective about that. Hideous.
At 0:52, it is a portrait of Louis XIV's great-grandson and heir, Louis XV. You probably made the mistake because both of them inherited the throne at the age of 5 🙂
@History Tea Time With Lindsey Holiday I absolutely LOVE your channel! But I especially LOVE your French pronunciations as they are positively divine! Thank You for your wonderful and educational channel and all of the time, effort and hard work that I know you must devote to it, put into it and spend on it. I appreciate you so much! You are quite wonderful! 😍😘💖
I tried to find more info about your mention that Loius Count of Vermandios had been the Man in the Iron Mask but couldnt discover much. Im not sure Louis would spare his brother and the aggressor only to unleash the torturous cruelty of improsoning the boy, but its fascinating. Did the man exist? What was his crime? What caused his unusual punishment?
Ceļojums vēsturē. Ko mēs redzētu, ja mums būtu laika mašīna un mēs varētu aizceļot tūkstošiem gadu atpakaļ? Ko mēs uzzinātu par cilvēces pirmsākumu? Un kā tas atspoguļotu sabiedrību, kurā mēs dzīvojam šodien? Ja mēs izvēlētos ceļot aptuveni divdesmit tūkstoš gadus atpakaļ, pirmā lieta, ko mēs pamanītu, būtu tas, ka cilvēki dzīvo kopā. Mums bija ciltis, kas izmantoja valodas, prata radīt jaunas idejas un saprast sarežģītas domas. Mūs padara par cilvēkiem tas, ka mēs esam sociāli, un mēs varam nodotu mūsu zināšanas citām paaudzēm. Atšķirība no dažiem uzskatiem, senie cilvēki patiesībā bija ļoti gudri un spējīgi. Viņi mācēja atpazīt daudz dažādu augu sugas un noteikt, vai tās bija indīgas. Viņi arī specializējās dažādos amatos. Daži cilvēki bija labi mednieki, daži mēģināja izgudrot lietas, kas palīdzētu citiem. Dažiem pat bija laiks nodarboties ar mākslas darināšanu un stāstiem. Protams, viņu valoda un sabiedrība nebija tik kompleksa kā mūsējā, taču ir vērts atcerēties, ka ar savām spējām un zināšanām seni cilvēki radīja pamatus tam, ko mūsdienās mēs lat neievērojam. Cilvēki tad bija tieši tādi paši kā mēs. Viņi piedzīvoja bēdas un laimi, viņiem dažreiz bija garlaicīgi, viņi raudāja un smējās. Viņi dzīvoja grupās, stāstīja pasakas, apglabāja mirušos un radīja mākslu. Vai tas nav brīnišķīgi?

I get excited to see new releases from you. You should do a type of how accurate the popular royal tv shows are vs history (play on History channel type doc) Stunning images in Versailles, Kingdom (stunning 1300 France Cathedral) glass scenes and other Netflix. Starz channel has a superb series The Spanish Princess (Cath of Aragon/England) The White Princess (Tudor takeover) Elizabeth (Teenage Elizabeth) The White Queen I have not seen yet but is right before Tudor takeover I think. Serpent Queen (Medici Queen) had stunning castle scenes (DisneyLandesque) Versailles I love rewatching particular b/c of Queen actress as well as really loving the Princess Palatine actress also. That would be a great video too. I don’t even know off hand where that is. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones.

Philip (Felipe)V suffered from depression and in January 1724 abdicated in favour of his eldest son Louis (Luís) I. Unfortunately the young king died of smallpox later that same year aged only 17 years, had been.married verynbriefly and keft no heirs. His father resumed the crown and reigned on until he died in 1746.
Do you know anything about "The Man in the Iron Mask?" I was always interested into this story since seeing the movie with Leo DeCaprio. I was always curious about it. I enjoy your videos!
Ah yes please! That part got me very curious.
The show of Versailles had a interesting take on it
Yeah same! I thought it was complete fiction even I saw it on Versailles (the show) but now I’m very curious 🧐
Actually, nobody knows who this guy was. He is named «Eustache Danger» in the letters of the time but that may very be an alias.
9:20,
Honestly idc if he was REALY gay or anything(when I look it up, it says he actually WAS gay, but sadly got involved with those noble pricks)
This child was so innocent & sweet I'm so ashamed that he died in such a way
(As someone who has been gay since, age 16(same age this kids death)it's almost disgusting shit like this got away if u were a noble)
He and Charles ll was out getting everybody and their mom pregnant.
This video is basically a Louis drinking game 😂
I enjoy your videos! If it is possible, can you please make videos on the history of hygiene and make-up?
Meanwhile in Spain……. “Philip Prospero died after a seizure just a shy of his fourth birthday. His parents were heartbroken and baffled s to why their children have been so afflicted. The King wrote to a friend “I have sworn that I angered god for these excuses”. Philip and Mariana would suffer the death of one more son Ferdinand at the age of 10 months before their 5th and only surviving son Charles was born.”
Oooh, I´m looking forward to learning more about them, especially the Duc du Maine.
I remember one of my first history documentaries (in german) being focused on his relationship with Montespan. and how over time the way of Madame de Maintenon got on Louis XIV´s radar because she helped the Duc du Maine walk again. I´m excited to see if there is mention of this and I´m looking forward to adding to this supposed knowledge of mine :)
So interesting, one can imagine all the jostling for favors and attention. The habit of using the same first names for numerous children was mind boggling!! Grazie.
I'm so excited to learn more about French royalty 😍
Lindsay, there is some controversies about your sponsor Established Titles. Your channel name was listed in a big youtubers video about it and the name really stuck out like a sore thumb bc the name is so long. Just letting you know you might wanna put up a community tab or mention it in the next video cuz i’m sure lots of people read your name on that list! love you!
The Scott Schafer video, right?
@@piratesswoop725 yes
Yea I'm wondering if she'll post about it because she's been sponsored by them forever
The moment your sister, with wildly different tastes, confides she also watches Tea Time! Lindsay you’re now a conversation starter for us. Lol thanks.
Sounds like he was bed more than anything else during his reign 🤣🤣🤣
Great episode. Could you do an episode of Louis the 14th right from birth to his death.
John of Gaunt Duke of Lancaster siyn of Edward III of England did better by his mistress Katherine Swynford. He married her eventually and got his nephew Richard II to legitimise his 4 illegitimate children the Beauforts on condition they wouldn't inherit the Crown. The Beauforts were very powerful at court since their half brother became King Henry IV. And decades later, a Beaufort became King, Henry Tudor, Henry VII, as the last Lancastrian, through his mother Margaret Beaufort.
“The 32 year old woman received a proposal from her 15 year old nephew, the son of her own half brother. But the marriage would be inappropriate.”
No dip, Sherlock.
I love you video and really love your history of royal family and I would really love to see you do A video on the French royal family. please
Check out Kings of France. She does great videos of the French royal family.
I enjoy your videos so much!! 🥰 do you consider doing some videos on the romanian royals?
I love the merch designs. A good design idea would be LGBT monarchs for pride. I love this channel and history btw
I don’t think you want to be represented by the known “lgbt” royalty.
@@tell-me-a-story- and here
I thought some people are just totally DESPERATE for LGBTQ🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈⚧ “representation”
Who is homo I have to know 👀
I am glad most families I poersonally know who have Illigitimate children in them have treated those children the same way they would any legitimate child,
Times change for the better at least where I am haha.
Though I am unsure what the attitude would have been had those children been known of around the time of their birth
Athénaïs is a gorgeous name
Thank god Charles of England didn't spew out spawn with Camilla.
pretty much only cause they’d get demonized/bashed King Charles and Queen consort Camilla have already been subjected to plenty of such BS
btw there’s NO “Charles
of England” at least not
since over 300 years ago
So I hope you remove established Titles from your sponsorship.
You should do a video about how christmas was in Versailles during the reign of the sun king. Or how christmas was celebrated in the Tudor era
@A.W. Thanks for the comment I’ve already seen that video and loved it but i just think a lot more could have been covered
All the European kings and regents cannot touch Genghis Khan. This guys descendants number 15 million people today. Who is Louis again?
Considering that he raped a bunch of women, that's not something to brag about. Neither is having dozens of mistresses like Louis.
one of several French Kings who’ve had the name Louis
Wow DeMontespon really liked naming her kids Louise and louis
Love your store! I bought 2 stickers to put on my new chariot (car) I already have crowns on it, why not stickers to let everyone know that I’m a Queen Regnant? I also got the Catherine the Great one too!
Honestly, first, I want to see the series about it all with multiple seasons.
Second, I'm so freaking grateful for existence of the vaccine for measles. Like, every third royal here died from it.
Try to remember that the male version of Dauphin is doe-fau. Doe-feen (Dauphine) is the female pronunciation.
"Fau" as if you're trying to say "fan" without the n. Also, princess is *not* stressed on the second syllable as you often do.
@II well yes, obviously, aka the female version. I thought it was understood since women were barred from inheriting the French throne. There has never been a Queen Regnant of France.
Louis XIV's youngest daughter was ACTUALLY called *Marie Françoise* please stop copying Wikipedia.
These are fascinating stories, I don’t know as much about the French history as some other places and it’s all pretty interesting. For example now I will never be able to not think of Versailles as a giant frilly portable toilet smelling place 😂 it’s almost like I can smell it by thinking about it 🤦🏻♀️
Have visited, one really warm summer day, all the fireplaces still smell of pee. Male courtiers, who spent much time waiting for an audience with the king, would pee in the fireplaces rather than leave the room and lose their place
Hey are you going to make a video about your sponsorship with established titles? It's a big deal rn and you were the few UA-camrs sponsored by them for awhile before everyone else was. Love you❤️
You really have done a great job. Feedback: For the masculine pronunciation, it is Dauphin (doh-fan) not Dauphine (doo-pheen). You consistently pronounce the masculine like the feminine title.
The "double first cousin" got me gagged 💀😭👀
This was amazing! Thank you for the amazing videos you're uploading for us! I have a suggestion, would you make a video of all Hürrem Sultan's children? Thank you for this video, once again. ❤
Imagine if he was the mysterious man in the iron mask.
Well, since barely anybody in the aristocracy raised their own children anyway, they absolutely have a favorite. They didn’t care/hide things like that. I don’t care WHO you are. You always have a favorite child. If you say no, I don’t believe it. But, they didn’t have to pretend.
Do you plan to talk about established titles? You were sponsored by them. Would be interesting to hear your point of view!
damn, I want that shirt. the pictures are perfect. you should totally make them in tanks.
26:26 WRONG. Her name was simply Claude de Vin. Œillets had NOTHING to do with her name. *STOP COPYING WIKIPEDIA*
24:12 One other descendant is Simeon, the former king of Bulgaria!
Madame de Montespan's youngest daughter was called Marie Françoise. Again, DON'T COPY WIKIPEDIA.
Even in the 1600s, it should have been obvious that a teenaged boy at the mercy of ‘brutal, insinuating, and completely unscrupulous’ Lorraine and his possibly even worse friends could hardly be considered to be at fault. But then again Louis’s own dear mother had arranged for him to be meddled with at fifteen, and he clearly had no sense of perspective about that. Hideous.
Dauphin not Dauphine unless his son was female???
miss lindsay, your vid are just sooooooo much fun ,plus i learn so much. i love history but ,this great ,wish you were my high school teacher
Like most kings Louis XIV not only is he a terrible husband but also a bad father
At 0:52, it is a portrait of Louis XIV's great-grandson and heir, Louis XV. You probably made the mistake because both of them inherited the throne at the age of 5 🙂
@History Tea Time With Lindsey Holiday I absolutely LOVE your channel! But I especially LOVE your French pronunciations as they are positively divine! Thank You for your wonderful and educational channel and all of the time, effort and hard work that I know you must devote to it, put into it and spend on it. I appreciate you so much! You are quite wonderful! 😍😘💖
18:15 what does the “fast set at court” for Louise Francoise mean?? Always love your videos Lindsay!
All they wanted was merch 😂
I tried to find more info about your mention that Loius Count of Vermandios had been the Man in the Iron Mask but couldnt discover much. Im not sure Louis would spare his brother and the aggressor only to unleash the torturous cruelty of improsoning the boy, but its fascinating. Did the man exist? What was his crime? What caused his unusual punishment?
King Luis of France had

I love your channel! Thank you for your hard work.
Ceļojums vēsturē.
Ko mēs redzētu, ja mums būtu laika mašīna un mēs varētu aizceļot tūkstošiem gadu atpakaļ? Ko mēs uzzinātu par cilvēces pirmsākumu? Un kā tas atspoguļotu sabiedrību, kurā mēs dzīvojam šodien?
Ja mēs izvēlētos ceļot aptuveni divdesmit tūkstoš gadus atpakaļ, pirmā lieta, ko mēs pamanītu, būtu tas, ka cilvēki dzīvo kopā. Mums bija ciltis, kas izmantoja valodas, prata radīt jaunas idejas un saprast sarežģītas domas. Mūs padara par cilvēkiem tas, ka mēs esam sociāli, un mēs varam nodotu mūsu zināšanas citām paaudzēm.
Atšķirība no dažiem uzskatiem, senie cilvēki patiesībā bija ļoti gudri un spējīgi. Viņi mācēja atpazīt daudz dažādu augu sugas un noteikt, vai tās bija indīgas. Viņi arī specializējās dažādos amatos. Daži cilvēki bija labi mednieki, daži mēģināja izgudrot lietas, kas palīdzētu citiem. Dažiem pat bija laiks nodarboties ar mākslas darināšanu un stāstiem.
Protams, viņu valoda un sabiedrība nebija tik kompleksa kā mūsējā, taču ir vērts atcerēties, ka ar savām spējām un zināšanām seni cilvēki radīja pamatus tam, ko mūsdienās mēs lat neievērojam.
Cilvēki tad bija tieši tādi paši kā mēs. Viņi piedzīvoja bēdas un laimi, viņiem dažreiz bija garlaicīgi, viņi raudāja un smējās. Viņi dzīvoja grupās, stāstīja pasakas, apglabāja mirušos un radīja mākslu. Vai tas nav brīnišķīgi?
Please don't mind me I just wanted to write down my essay on a piece of paper, I had written this while on the bus on my notes app and needed to submit it in paper form. Since I was writing it down from my phone I wanted to listen to something in the backround so I choose to listen to this while I write down my essay and couldn't copy it or make it split-screen I just copy and pasted it here!

10 year old says who is man in iron masks???
I get excited to see new releases from you. You should do a type of how accurate the popular royal tv shows are vs history (play on History channel type doc) Stunning images in Versailles, Kingdom (stunning 1300 France Cathedral) glass scenes and other Netflix. Starz channel has a superb series The Spanish Princess (Cath of Aragon/England) The White Princess (Tudor takeover) Elizabeth (Teenage Elizabeth) The White Queen I have not seen yet but is right before Tudor takeover I think. Serpent Queen (Medici Queen) had stunning castle scenes (DisneyLandesque) Versailles I love rewatching particular b/c of Queen actress as well as really loving the Princess Palatine actress also. That would be a great video too. I don’t even know off hand where that is. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones.
THIS ^^^^ lmao I was just watching one and they way they speak about the currant royals and Diana was disgusting almost as bad as the crown but nothing will beat that shit show !
