One of the best history videos ive seen on here! The artwork along with the masterful writing makes this something to behold! P.s Absolutely shocked that you have only 200 subscribers. hope you get many more
I don't usually leave comments, but your videos are second to none! History is filled with so many stories not touched in our school systems! Cant wait for more of your videos! Great work! Standing Ovation!
Nice storytelling. And very impressive visuals. I totally dig your vigilance in putting so many hours into After Effects. A program I could never really get into, but your results speak for themselves. Keep it up!
Amen to Ammianus Marcellinus for providing us with so much detail about these events. Also, kudos to the producers of this video. The neutral tone and text are well done. The art mix, created partly by AI and partly by the artist, is very impressive. I really enjoyed it and will definitely watch it again.
Thanks a ton for the support, I’m really glad you enjoyed the video and the styles. If you enjoyed this video I suggest watch one of our latest video " how one man defeated three roman emperors" it's about the sassanian king shapur and his story of defeating 3 roman kings.
I Found my Answer.....NEVER MIND: Julian wasn't standing around like an utter fool, he was trying to save his army. His army was under attack from several angles while on the march and he rushed out to the hotspots to rally his men unfortunately without putting on his armor in his haste. Who hasn't forgotten something important while being a hurry? And he got stabbed with a spear in the middle of melee either by a Persian soldier/Arab mercenary, a traitorous Christian legionary or by Saint Mercurius depending on which version you believe.
simply the army was betrayed. It was a classic move for the Romans to attack in 2-3 columns. They did so in 117 and in 166, 196 and in 283 and 295. All ended with the conquest of Ctesiphon. the betrayal of Procopius and the Armenian king was the cause.
This is such a complex matter with lots of views But alot believe Parthian empire is considered a Persian empire (at least in English) there isn't a single entity known as the "Persian Empire," Westerners commonly refer to empires such as the Achaemenid, Parthian, Sassanian, and Safavid as Persian empires. These were established by Iranian peoples in and around the region historically known as Persia or Iran.
He was not stupid. He headed north because he was supposed to meet with Sebastianus and Procopius who had an army of 30000 men. But they betrayed him and did not show up.

Based on his writings, his thought process was indicative of someone with a high intelligence, I would say. Not to mention his transformation and stunning achievements in Gaul and Germany. Persia was Rome’s “eternal enemy”. If Julian could knock it out, then Rome would have no geopolitical rivals whatsoever, and probably would have averted the disastrous war that Heraclius barely saved Rome from. You can decide if that’s a worthy goal. But being intelligent doesn’t make you immune to stupid decisions, though. Bill Clinton slept with his intern, Elon Musk called divers pedophiles, Hitler refused a breakout of the Sixth Army, Caesar refused to listen to forewarnings by Calpurnia, etc.
There was no blow by a "Persian knight". first of all, the cataphracts did not throw spears. And the most important until the end, the Romans emerged victorious from the battle. it was most likely the blow of a Christian in Julian's army.
What do you think would happen if Julian survived his campaign? Would we have a much different world today?
I believe a much better one. I detest abrahamic cults.
Yes. I reckon we would have a European version of hinduism; Pagan priesthood might have been more resilient
I think Beta instead of VHS, would have become the standard videotape format.

So you haven't found the answer then, you are just making it up 😂😂😂
Romans were great warriors but got too big headed this time.
simply the army was betrayed. It was a classic move for the Romans to attack in 2-3 columns. They did so in 117 and in 166, 196 and in 283 and 295. All ended with the conquest of Ctesiphon. the betrayal of Procopius and the Armenian king was the cause.
Wrong anachronistic roman armor and clothing and wrong swords. Otherwise ok video.
367 CE you mean.
Long love iran 🇮🇷
Long live my great king shapur ii 👑🇮🇷🦅
Why burn ships
Surena?so its Parthian empire not Persian
Oh Sassanid Persian , my bad
This is such a complex matter with lots of views But alot believe Parthian empire is considered a Persian empire (at least in English)

HAIL CESARE
The last Roman.
idk if julian was so smart or so stupid
He was not stupid. He headed north because he was supposed to meet with Sebastianus and Procopius who had an army of 30000 men. But they betrayed him and did not show up.
If you read a book on Julian u will find your answer

@@petersclafani4370depends on which books you read, American fake history books are no good for anything apart from Hollywood 😂
hail julian the apostate, "the book you gave me, i read, i understood and i condemned"
a fool that stood against God and died a pitiful death
@@mrm4sherman271 like Jesus🤣🤣🤣

it was most likely the blow of a Christian in Julian's army.
