      @@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 According to the person that recorded Marco Polo's supposed adventures, there's a mythical land called Cipangu, full of gold, based on the Chinese myth of Japan being a cradle of life, since the sun comes from that direction. Since his journey is described in days of travel and he moved slowly, people overestimated the distances he travelled, so Asia was drawn much larger on maps than it actually is. As a result, those islands ended up being where Cipangu would be on the map used during Columbus' life and the myth of El Dorado was born

And it was thanks to those classes that I was able to understand a lot more of this video than others.

    @somersetcace1 2 роки тому +84

    There's a line in the movie "Contact" when the main character meets an alien. The alien says "You're an interesting species. An interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares." I think that sums it up pretty well. Also, seeing the history laid out like this can be quite eye opening as to the amount of conquering that went on. Though, one thing this video misses, is that within some of those empires were generations of relative peace.

    • @xenotypos
      @xenotypos 2 роки тому

      The fact that we value peace itself may just be our human nature speaking. In general nothing is objectively better than anything else, and I don't think super smart aliens would judge another species through "moral" views. Probably.
      Anyway, as bad as violence seems to us (and how harmful it is to modern society), conflicts shaped civilisation. No actually, conflicts/competition is even a fondamental part of life that shapes the natural world. And which carries evolution itself.

    • @somersetcace1
      @somersetcace1 2 роки тому +3

      @@xenotypos I wouldn't disagree with that. We make up flowery romantic ways to put it, but it basically amounts to the same thing. "From the ashes..." etc...I have no idea what aliens would say, if anything, I was just using a fictional quote to describe something. That quote was made up by a human, from a humans perspective about what that human thought an advanced alien might think of humanity. Really, it's the author's take on humanity, I just agree with it. However, I agree it's subjective. It means nothing outside of the value we give it.

    I love this video for a simple reason: it shows how everything is connected.
    In school, we learn history in an episodic fashion. But this video gives a five thousand foot view and we can see how one event leads into another. For instance, I never realized before this video how there is a straight line from the Seven Years War through the American Revolution to the French Revolution and Napoleon.

    I highly recommend checking out Lemmino's videos! He literally makes some of the best and most quality videos on youtube. He is widely known as the guy who makes the best documentaries on youtube. He talks about some of the most interesting topics and mysteries in his videos. I think you guys would really enjoy his documentaries.
    I recommend checking out these videos to start with:
    -The Search For D. B. Cooper
    -Cicada 3301: An Internet Mystery
    -The Vanishing of Flight 370
    -The Universal S
    -Extraordinary Until Proven Otherwise
    These are some of his best but of course he has so many other amazing videos. I just tried to keep the list short and not too overwhelming.

    There were a lot of cultural highlights besides the Renaissance.
    The golden age of India, the Islamic golden age, the Mayans figuring out the stars, etc.
    The fact that China fell apart so many times is most amazing for the fact that it kept coming back together.
    This idea of a Chinese nation never went away, and persisted to the present.
    It's had many shifts in boarders and type of governance, but remains quintessentially China.
    I find that oddly comforting.

    Gupta empire, Indus Valley were beautiful focussed on Art, Music, etc
    Rig veda of Hinduism was set to music another thing it had a verse saying world is 1 family. Buddhism & Hinduism were revolutionary in history as they talked about peace and tolerance.
    Hope peace and art, music remains the focus.

      That's mainly because there really wasn't that many positives that outweighed the negatives. Like they existed yes, but there were a lot of pressing issues throughout history. Some that we STILL haven't even resolved to this very day even which really says a lot when folks say "Don't let history repeat itself" y'know?

      @@anthonydeadman Thats debatable theres lots of positives and good humans have done like building civilizations, inventions to help humanity, people who help animals, medical research etc etc the problem is people like to focus on the negatives. Example take cops or priests. I know some and have had the unfortunate run ins with them in the past. I can tell you they're like anyone else with any other job. You have good ones and bad ones but if you listen to the media they "all cops are bad and all churches have pedo priests" which is not true at all the problem is the good ones get a bad rap. Its understandable now days to be jaded but I feel alot of people are easily influenced by msm instead of doing their own homework.

      @@MKF30 I'm sure there is a lot of good things folks have done for sure. My main point is, there's just such an imbalance and like you said, that's partially due to the fact that people feed more and at times even profit off of negativity in multiple ways.
      Hell, you could argue that some even have an obsession to find negative things just to get their kicks. It's utter madness.
      Still this all being said, it doesn't change the harsh fact that a lot of our history ranges from dark, to absolutely tragic moments but despite that, it's the genuinely GOOD moments we have during those periods no matter how small, that keep us going forward and give us hope for a positive outcome or future.

      @@anthonydeadman Yeah unfortunately now days that seems to be the thing that drives people, everyone seemingly has an agenda and often it's pointing out the flaws over the positives which depending on what the topic is may be true but it's like these feel like darker days we're going through which historically speaking happens then things get better then there's another crisis be it a war, pandemic, economic meltdown etc, etc whatever the issue is so some will say that's how everything balances out.
      Unfortunately it just seems like the negatives override the positives at least in times like now. I'd like to think there are better times when this isn't the case, such as when I was growing up the times just felt happier and less complicated.
      Yeah I mean that's why I believe the universe and everything at the end of the day is about balance, where there's good there's evil, dark there's light etc, etc it may seem like one overpowers the other but the reality is it's balanced it just doesn't appear that way depending on the era. I believe people can find a good or dark aspect in every situation really, it's all about perspective.

    The beginning where the narrator talks about “nothing”, “nowhere”, “every” and “you don’t need a where. That’s how every it gets” alludes to Anaximander’s concept/proposition/hypothesis of “Apeiron”! Please check it out!! It concerns how the universe “started”, and “Apeiron” simply means without beginning and end (infinite). When you think about it, it makes perfect sense and some intellectuals and scientists agree with that suggestion/proposition. As do I. And now science has discovered hints of pre-big bang existence of the universe, which I believe points to apeiron. And the fact that space expands faster than the speed of light only further supports it. That means “things” have always existed and this existence is infinite, limitless and boundless.

    Yeah the roundup frames it perfectly. The best of recognised history is the renaissance, the greek culture, the islamic golden age, the house of wisdom in Baghdad. So much of history's beauty and knowledge comes from areas that hit their "intellectual cap" because of faith and it's so sad to see the world stage of nations (particularly looking at America but also at my own country the UK) essentially writing off those countries just because they haven't freed themselves from the idiocy of theism. They had such great contributions until the inevitable rise of their respective churches I hate seeing them written off purely for theological reasons.

My god the Brazil leader in game Pedro II looking in to him seems like he almost at one point had Brazil on course to potentially become a world super power. He was so good at being King that the people forgot why they needed a King. So he was overthrown without resisting at all cause deep down he hated the responsibility and stress of being King, and now Brazil has like the highest crime rate in the world. Nice.

      Video games CAN be educational. One of the reasons we started playing Assassins Creed together is because Bethany and her mom were talking about the Borgias and I joined in and she was impressed because she knew I didn’t study or care about history really. She asked how I knew about all that and I told her it was from a video game. She immediately said “I wanna play that game!” I asked her to marry me the next day. (That last line is a lie but I felt like it put a nice button on the end of the story 😜)

      The Civ games are great, and educational. They really should teach "tech trees" in schools to give students some perspective on how each technology builds upon those that came before it. It seems a lot of people look at something and think "wow, it's crazy how something like this could even exist" when they should, hopefully, be able to identify aspects of it that are already familiar and have some idea of where they came from. The games also show a good, if artificial for gameplay purposes, balance between various civilizations and how they are often more similar than different. And, of course, that every empire that arises, eventually falls as well.

    history buffs usually tend to say that 'we look at the past to learn for the future, so we may avoid the mistakes that were once made.' yet... more often than not, history buffs just look at the world cynically while seeing the mistakes being made every other day and just... we sit and watch.

      I was just about to make this exact same suggestion as well! Glad I scrolled through the comments to check if anyone else had mentioned it first. @@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 here's a link to the *TIMELAPSE OF THE FUTURE: A Journey to the End of Time* video → ua-cam.com/video/uD4izuDMUQA/v-deo.html it's 30 minutes in length but as *@LunarAurora* mentioned it's a stunning spectacle.
      I wanted to recommend this one in particular because... it's essentially exploring as-of-yet unwritten "history"
      It's a hypothetical speculation. A theoretical prediction. And that model may change as we learn more about the nature and behavior of certain fundamental forces in physics and how that may affect cosmological progression (and cessation) in the future.
      It's tricky business, trying to semi-accurately guesstimate where the chips may fall, but I think the sources cited and narrated in that video are reputable scientists, and the video does an amazing job -- audio-visually speaking -- bringing the models that each of them describe to life
      Of course, as *@LonelyAurora* pointed out, *@MelodySheep* has a _"Timelapse of the Universe"_ video as well. And there are several other similar videos besides floating around the ether of the internet if you're really interested in checking any of those dime'a'dozen vids out as well.... But they all essentially cover the same exact scope of information as in this one, just presented in different ways based on the artistic license taken by that particular content creator.
      *@MelodySheep's* "Universe" timelapse will certainly give you a more _theatrical_ experience retelling the same set of history you just reacted to in this particular video, but I'm far more curious to hear your reflections and discussions ensuing the "Future" timelapse -- which is a lot more interesting and ambitious in my opinion for attempting to capture and record a "history" of the universe ...which has yet to unfold 🤯
